If you have a dedicated server you're able to install letsencrypt certificates. There are quite a few tutorials online on how to install the certificate and modify your nginx config to automatically redirect to HTTPS here is a simple guide. Alternatively you could use Cloudflares SSL and use page rules to automatically redirect to HTTPS, if you're not very experienced within Linux I'd suggest cloudflare.
Certain things in the headerinclude template may of been coded to use http instead of https you'll need to adjust those.
