However was wondering if anyone else on the Oxwall community have noticed any issues with with their site after implementing:
a) Performance issues
b) Any hardcoded http: URL in Core or Plugins
Thanks

Hello Kevin!
About https AFTER the site is in production problems described in my https://developers.oxwall.com/forum/topic/52054
But if you want to find any hardcoded http, you can
1. download scripts
2. find by Total Commander any word in scripts with text 'http:'.
may be scripts have not such things, but i forget about this, because when I found such errors, I corrected them...
I am not sure about third-party plugins
As for performance, the significant drop has not occurred

Same here, no drop in performance when I switched to https.
However, the hardcoded http links gave me a small headache. What I ended up doing was
- export the DB into one SQL file on my workstation
- then ran TextWrangler through it replacing all with strings
- then dumped the DB on the server (careful, that renders your entire site unusable) using webmin
- then reimported the now fixed SQL file from my workstation to my server using webmin.
Everything worked just dandy after that, everything is in https now and Firefox as well as Chrome indicate that no content is being loaded by mere http anymore. :)

Oh I should add that I did all of the above *after* I ran the installer script from 'Let's Encrypt' which does a whole lot of configuring on the server.

Thanks. My site is hosted and setup went smooth.
Only two pages (not counting Video) do not show secure: Main and Search Pro. I will go thru the code for those.
You are right about the speed- I do not notice any big difference.

A good plugin will use the available core route logic and process and not specific http or https page urls for the plugin.

Well the other site probably would not appreciate you hot linking to their content either. So if it is not rights violation why not add the content to your site?
