How can I give files in the Resources folder the https:// prefix?

When I add a file, such as a PDF, to my Resources folder, RapidWeaver automatically creates a URL for it with the prefix http://. That’s a problem because my site prefix is https://, and web browsers block content that doesn’t appear to be SSL certified (i.e., doesn’t have the prefix https://). Anybody know how to fix this?

Add the s manually - https://thailandgo.eu/resources/maps-pdf/Thailand-Ko-Tao-Ko-Nang-Yuan-map.pdf

Thanks for your reply, Per. I thought of adding the “s” manually, but I couldn’t find a way to do that. In RapidWeaver, the names of files in the Resources folder don’t show the http:// prefix. The same is true even after I export the site, and even after I upload it to the web. When I look inside the Resources folder, the file names don’t have prefixes. So how can I go about adding the “s”?

Is your web address set to https in the site settings?

Yes, it is.

Well, that is very strange, as that’s where the Macro gets your website URL from. Can you try re-entering it under the General settings and see if that helps?

Can you also check the Website Address in your Publishing destination because RapidWeaver also uses this:

Okay, I’ve done that. I’m busy today, but I’ll let you know in a day or two if it solved the problem.

Fyi, I don’t use RapidWeaver’s built-in publishing tool. I use Filezilla instead because it gives me more detailed control over the publishing process.
