Nginx + php + Wordpress trying to download .DMS file on http, browsing to site on https is fine.

nginx config:

# You may add here your
# server {
#       ...
# }
# statements for each of your virtual hosts to this file

# You should look at the following URL's in order to grasp a solid understanding
# of Nginx configuration files in order to fully unleash the power of Nginx.

# http://wiki.nginx.org/QuickStart

#
# Generally, you will want to move this file somewhere, and start with a clean
# file but keep this around for reference. Or just disable in sites-enabled.

browsing to the site using https loads the site fine in any browser, using http downloads a DMS file instead of loading the site. I just read that http2 only works for port 443 and I accidentally enabled it for port 80 for over 24 hours. is this just a matter of telling people to browse to the site using https for x amount of time for the browser cache to expire or to clear browsing data?
