1.0.1

• Fixed: Mixed content errors on sites behind reverse proxies (Hostinger, Cloudflare, AWS ELB, etc.) where HTTPS is terminated at the proxy level.
• Fixed: CSS and JavaScript minified asset URLs now always use the correct protocol (HTTPS) when the site is configured for it.
• Fixed: Page cache now normalizes URL schemes before storing HTML, preventing cached pages from serving HTTP URLs to HTTPS visitors.
• Fixed: CDN URL rewriting failed silently on reverse proxy hosts because site_url() scheme didn’t match the HTML URLs.
• Fixed: Cache handler stale-while-revalidate now properly detects SSL behind reverse proxies via HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO, HTTP_X_FORWARDED_SSL, and HTTP_CF_VISITOR headers.
• Fixed: Cookie secure flag now correctly set on reverse proxy hosts where is_ssl() returns false.
• Fixed: Image WebP/AVIF URL repair and URL-to-path conversion now work correctly behind reverse proxies.
• Fixed: WooCommerce shop page cache filename detection works correctly behind reverse proxies.
• Fixed: Tools page SSL status display now correctly reports HTTPS on reverse proxy hosts.
• Performance: CSS and JavaScript minification no longer re-runs the full pipeline on every request for files that don’t meet the savings threshold. Skip markers prevent redundant work.
• Performance: Replaced md5_file() with filemtime()-based cache keys for minification, eliminating unnecessary full-file reads on every request.
• Performance: Cache handler ETag generation now uses file metadata instead of md5_file(), avoiding reading the entire cached file on every cache hit.
