Your function base_post_handle_https_static_content is full of bugs.
1) It doesn't recognize linebreaks inside a tags
2) It replaces external http links to https
3) What is the purpose of replacing all plain text to https?
$markup = str_replace("http:", "https:", $markup);
str_replace("http:", "https:", $matches[2][$index])
4) What is the logic of this function? Did you intent to replace all absolute links to main site?

this has been reported over 12 months ago and right now i am fighting with oxwall as i have 2 plugins that use https api and freaking oxwall rewrites them to http
and there reply is
In this case you need to include the local image. Keep in mind that you need to develop the plugin compatible with Oxwall software not the opposite.
how in hell do i make something work with something thats freaking broken
theser always a problem show http content on a https site
but have you ever heard problem try show https content on a http site

i think they made it do that as some were wing that when they have a site for long time run on http and they decide to change to https lots of stuff is broken and that code rewites lots of the stuff to fix it
but to fix something for a few wingers has completely suffed everything up

SSL should pretty much be 'have it from the start or not' type of thing. At least from my perspective. I don't know why any software would try to correct an indecision that a webmaster made by launching the site on HTTP then decided to add SSL. That should be left as a third-party plugin, not core functionality.
I think honestly Oxwall devs might not even use HTTPS on an Oxwall installation, hence maybe why it's not working as it should. I'm not sure though, I'm not trying to be presumptuous.
Images should simply be downloaded and served from the local site instead of attempting to pull a broken image from https when the linked site uses http. Or at the very least, give generic thumbnails to choose from while this feature is being worked on.
I guess the only reason this isn't a priority is because most people run their installations without SSL. But the sites that actually pulling in a decent income are likely running HTTPS.

and a size limit on the images so it does not grab stupid things like icons
ombeded has this but its not implicated
i posted on this long time ago and like everything else got the answer this is a custom code mod

the big issue is if they fix it now me and many other now have to be use full ssl on our sites because this problem and if it fixed and we want change back to http then theres a huge mess
if they fix it it would need a button in admin to make that code run to change everthing and on its complete its run turn that code off
i dont know maybe that not be problem go from https back to http
maybe just needs that button for ppl go from http to thhps

Your function base_post_handle_https_static_content is full of bugs.Maxim what issue do you have with the linebreaks, as I believe it is a plain html?
1) It doesn't recognize linebreaks inside a tags
2) It replaces external http links to https
3) What is the purpose of replacing all plain text to https?
$markup = str_replace("http:", "https:", $markup);
str_replace("http:", "https:", $matches[2][$index])
4) What is the logic of this function? Did you intent to replace all absolute links to main site?
As to changing links from http to https, yes we do that when the site is https in order to not have mixed content error and static broken links all over the website.

Are you kidding?
Your function base_post_handle_https_static_content is full of bugs.
Issues are 1) 2) 3) and 4)
ok 5) issue is - your code doesn't change all links, i.e. it changes texts, not links
just look into the code

Can you answer this question first, please: what issue do you have with the linebreaks, as I believe it is a plain html?

@Ross, linking to http websites is not mixed content or unsecure in any way. Only if it's an image or other content like iframes, but not a simple hyperlink. Links shouldn't be re-written to HTTPS, only assets like images, external javascript, etc.
Now, if every webmaster were to redirect their HTTPS://website.co/article to HTTP, this wouldn't be a problem since the s would be redirected. But that's not the case, and this will result in broken links throughout the entire Oxwall newsfeed.
Again, hyperlinks do not need to be HTTPS, only images, scripts, and iframes, etc.

no I can't because we speak on different languages
PS every time I submit a bug report I tell myself not to do it any more because you don't understand. sad but true
oxwall is not a SAAS service, it'a a framework

how hard is it to give a simple answer
you can use css to style it out , display none
use inspect element to find the css
here is some one try make a plugin and is unanswered

some one asks something on a plugin about it not doing what it should or what ever
lets just move this to custom code mod so no one looking at the plugin will see it there
and find out its does not do what is should do
http://www.oxwall.org/forum/topic/41572
i posted on social share plugin on it not working and it got moved to custom code mod
with the answer this is a custom code mod
hahhahaha
took me months to final get ross after pester him so much on it to actualy have a look and oooo yes it is a bug
and yes it has been reported and is to be fix
but like everything else that on the to be fixed list it wont be done in the next 2 or 3 years
oxwall needs to scrap uservoice as it does nothing
as they just remove things as they wish
and take a good hard look at the business model
thats if they even have one
and rewrite it to
the 2 most important thigs that need doing
1 fix the store
2 stop making half assed new features and fix what they have
1 to fix the store
have a public review board
that each week say reviews 5 plugins
oxwall lists the 5 plugins and the results of there review of each plugin
then use users can add any problem we have with each plugin
oxwall then puts the findings to the dev to fix
if the dev does not at least respond or the plugin just dont work at all remove it from the store
the findings of each review should be listed on the plugins page
and the dev can respond to each item with
this will be fixed in 2 week
this will be fixed in 2 months
this will be fixed in 3 months
and when each item is fixed the dev can mark it as fixed
2 make another discussion board thing
and list the huge amount of known bugs and known things in the to be fixed list
then give all oxwall users 2 votes to vote on what they would like to be fixed
each update the top 5 on the list gets fixed
anyone who voted on any of the top 5 on it being fixed gets there vote back to vote on something else
then have a forum just for post on things that ppl find that should be added to the list
so instead of get the answer tis will be fixed in an upcoming build
it gets added to the list where everyone can see it
doing like this is will everyone the faith and trust in oxwall that everyone has lost
and open the transparency of oxwall and make oxwall grow into something awesome

even have a say once every month or 2 months a crowdfunding bug fix
so say some the known bugs in the list are big fixes
have oxwall have the right on say 1 out of the 5 that have been votes to be fixed to mark it as a big fix it then goes into the big fix list
when the list gets to 10 have a croudfunding
and say to fix the 10 oxwall needs $400
when the 400 target is reached wooooohooo they get fixed
i and many others do not have a problem in donating money to oxwall to get things we know that are going to be fixed
