Bug? HTTPS API prevents forum post saving

[NodeHam]

When I enable the https API, users can no longer post.
It keeps telling them;

"HTTPS is required for requests to the write api, please re-send your request via HTTPS"

The server is using nginx reverse proxy and http is forwarded to https. The API works as it should but I thought I should mention this in case it's a bug or something that someone else is seeing.

@nodeham Can you show me an example call to the topics API via cURL? It will help me reproduce and/or debug what you are doing.

@julian Hi, there is no call to anything, just changing the API to https stops users from posting, including admins and moderators.

@nodeham oh!

Oh... Yes that is... Probably a real problem

Thank you for reporting.

@julian If you cannot replicate the problem, I am happy to give you access to our board for you to test.
