Having difficulty viewing photo album after iOS update to force HTTPS. Cannot view any thumbnails or album title photos - the whole album is visible but the thumbnails are just greyed out broken links. Have checked whole website and now receive a Secure padlock on all website & piwigo pages when using a web browser.

Have also installed Force_HTTPS plugin but receive an error stating 'Your hosting server does not support HTTPS, a SSL certificate is required. Plugin activation is disabled.' even though I have a Secure padlock on the site when I attempt to configure the plugin. The certificate is valid through entire cert chain.

I have spent many evenings trying to resolve the iOS app issue and have reached the end of my knowledge on what to try next. I would be interested to mail some private screenshots or let a moderator look at the site to diagnose the issue if possible.

The iOS photo album worked flawlessly before the upgrade to forced https url address.

This is now resolved by the latest release of the mobile app v2.2.3
My photos were using :80 in the URL and failing to load due to ssl requirement
The app now manages this automatically by replacing the base URL of the images.
