There isn’t a proper https/SSL variant of the link you have given, so probably, likely you are getting problems when enforcing it – no matter how you do it. I strongly assume that is the reason why the “unsecure” URL is used in the first place.
From comment:
So does this mean it is impossible to have a truly secure dashboard?
Firstly I’d say, the URL you are talking about is more or less documentary. Secondly, if an external source is malicious, then it really doesn’t matter if it is accessed via SSL or not.
