How can I change all links in the store to be https if the site accessed via https?

I am lost in your academic debate and do not have time and resources to read even 10% of what is posted, but I know for certain from my customers' feedback that if they entered my site via https, they expect 100% of their interaction with the site to be SSL encrypted. I understand where they are coming from and have zero problem with their wishes.

If some however want to use http, they should be allowed to do so.

You've read and replied to most of it already, so 10% of what remains was less than one word. The discussion was to attempt to provide specific custom design code to address your situation based on the expectations. The cleanest/clearest solution is as DrByte recommended which is to just make the full site https:.

Follow DrByte's recommended modification and it should satisfy those that wish to see a blue lock everywhere.
