[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Archivesspace dropping https in Staff UI

[Kara Hart]

Cont. thoughts from last email...
In fact, it looks like my System staff didn't add the redirects to the
apache config files.

If I added these lines to that config, would that possibly fix the
problem?

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName archivesstaff.wellesley.edu
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://archivesstaff.wellesley.edu$1 [R,L]
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName archives.wellesley.edu
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://archives.wellesley.edu$1 [R,L]
</VirtualHost>


Thanks, Kara
