I’m not a github pro. I don’t have a ton of time to look through and find what I’m taklking about and create an actual issue, so here it is. I installed using the instructions for ubuntu and set up my apache reverse proxy pointing at it. CSS and images didn’t load. A simple change that you can make to fix it, perhaps in a future release is to open up bootstrap.php and change

if (!Configure::read('App.fullBaseUrl')) {
    $s = null;
    if (env('HTTPS')) {
        $s = 's';
    }

    $httpHost = env('HTTP_HOST');
    if (isset($httpHost)) {
        Configure::write('App.fullBaseUrl', 'http' . $s . '://' . $httpHost);
    }
    unset($httpHost, $s);
}

to

if (!Configure::read('App.fullBaseUrl')) {
    $s = null;

    $httpHost = env('HTTP_HOST');
    if (isset($httpHost)) {
        Configure::write('App.fullBaseUrl', '//' . $httpHost);
    }
    unset($httpHost, $s);
}

I see a bunch of threads with pretty much the exact issue I’m running into and this is an easy fix for developers, or users for that matter, to make. It’s totally unnecessary to hard write the http/https into every page for every link as browsers will deal with this themselves.
