Hello,

It looks like that you only have HTTP enabled on your server. So when the site tries to load the static resources via HTTPS the connection is timing out.

You could install a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate using certbot which will automatically configure your Nginx webserver server block and you would have HTTPS enabled.

You can follow the steps on how to do that here:
