  I can’t figure out why a client site is forcing an https: when the URL entered is http:

  The page in question is this one:

  Conversation Starters for a First Date

  The link entered in the code is: http://www.datingspot.co.uk/, which is correct.
  The link, as you can see when you hover, reads as https:

  This is the code behind that first paragraph:

  Hey it’s Gregg and I’m so excited to bring you a guest blog post from a friend of mine, Pauline Plott. Pauline is a London-based blogger on DatingSpot. You can read her bio at the end of this post! Enjoy!

  I can’t figure out how to stop this…help!
