HTML is built with http and https references and I get a "Mixed content" message

It usually happens when you are behind a reverse proxy and front is httpS, but your container is running as http.

Issue is explained/reported in different posts:

• https://forum.pkp.sfu.ca/t/ojs-3-2-0-ojs-generates-protocol-relative-urls-in-notification-e-mails/59688/17?u=marc
• Let OJS honor HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO instead of trying to discover it pkp-lib#6851

Here ther is a detailed list of solutions:

Easiest one (tested on ojs 3.3) is adding this to your virtual-host:

SetEnvIf X-Forwarded-Proto "https" HTTPS=on

Probably would be nice to document this in readme?

Solved with this directive: SetEnvIf X-Forwarded-Proto "https" HTTPS=on

Found this tip here: https://blog.mypapit.net/2023/04/ojs3-behind-nginx-and-apache-proxy.html

But i put this directive on .htaccess in folder /var/www/html instead of change the Virtual Host inside container to keep the change permanent.
