I realize that this is a rather trivial quality of life change, but would it be possible for the site to redirect http requests to https?

Right now, entering "forum.snipershide.com" in the address bar leads to the unsecured, HTTP connection to the site. This breaks cookies, as well as default logins, etc. on Chrome, at least. A redirect to https://forum.snipershide.com would ensure a secure connection (at least in theory).

Love the site.

@Lowlight - I get downgraded to http when I click the "Go to Content" button on reported posts. Always have to click the button, then edit to https.
If it can be changed with coding it would be helpful.
 
This sort of rubbish used to be my day job... They will need to do a line or two of code here and there, but they gotta be perfect, or we are all finding something else to do for a minute. Good luck @Lowlight - this is best practice so I would implement if possible.
