Got it solved. Turns out the server was hosted behind a reversed proxy, causing WordPress not knowing it was running over https. Once I knew this, I found the solutions in the official documentation: http://codex.wordpress.org/Administration_Over_SSL (under “Using a Reverse Proxy”) This was needed in my wp-config. define(‘FORCE_SSL_ADMIN’, true); if ($_SERVER[‘HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO’] == ‘https’) $_SERVER[‘HTTPS’]=’on’

Installing the WordPress HTTPS plugin should take care of it.
After a little more reading via the WordPress Codex, I discovered that I was calling the favicon incorrectly. It should be called like this: <link rel=”shortcut icon” href=”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/240069/<?php echo get_stylesheet_directory_uri(); ?>/favicon.ico” /> Using get_stylesheet_directory_uri() checks for SSL.
