Insecure resources after activating SSL

mygov — Mon, 03 Feb 2014 17:24:01 +0000

Hi,
After I activated SSL on my domain I received an error that some resources are loaded insecure. (It is a yellow warning message in the browser)

As you can see only some images are loaded insecurely via http, all of them are defined by minicorp theme.

Can you please fix this minor issue and update the links to flexible http so wordpress can switch the images to https if needed. It seems WooCommerce automatically detect https correctly and update the links, only minicorp does not support this.

If you have insecure content warnings when viewing a secure page it means you will be linking directly to scripts, images, or stylesheets over http instead of https. Most of the time this is simply fixed by changing said links to https or by using relative URL’s (e.g. /wp-content/file instead of https://yoursite/wp-content/file).

Thank you!

Regards,
Daniel

Hi there,

You are right there is a problem with the image paths. Each time you save “Theme Options” a CSS file is generated. If you are hitting the “Save All Changes” while in HTTP mode the links in the CSS will be also in HTTP. If you do it in HTTPS the links will be output with HTTPS.

There will, however, be some images like custom uploads (not the pre-defined patters) which will still have HTTP.

Could you please provide the URL to your site and eventually a username and pass if still in maintenance mode? You can do it using the “Set as private reply” checkbox. Our e-mail is hello@ishyoboy.com for the user creation if needed.

We will prepare an update which will fix this behavior, in the meanwhile could you please open the file:

wp-content\themes\minicorp\admin\functions\functions.filters.php

And change the second function from:

function of_filter_load_media_upload($data) {

    // Updated by IshYoBoy
    if ( is_array($data)) {
        foreach ($data as $key => $value) {
            if (is_string($value)) {
                $data[$key] = str_replace(
                    array(
                        '[site_url]',
                        '[site_url_secure]',
                    ),
                    array(
                        site_url('', 'http'),
                        site_url('', 'https'),
                    ),
                    $value
                );
            }
        }
    }

    return $data;
}

function of_filter_load_media_upload($data) {

// Updated by IshYoBoy

if ( is_array($data)) {

foreach ($data as $key => $value) {

if (is_string($value)) {

$data[$key] = str_replace(

array(

'[site_url]',

'[site_url_secure]',

array(

site_url('', 'http'),

site_url('', 'https'),

$value

);

}

return $data;

}

to:

function of_filter_load_media_upload($data) {

    // Updated by IshYoBoy
    if ( is_array($data)) {
        foreach ($data as $key => $value) {
            if (is_string($value)) {
                $data[$key] = str_replace(
                    array(
                        '[site_url]',
                        '[site_url_secure]',
                    ),
                    array(
                        site_url('', 'http'),
                        site_url('', 'http'),
                    ),
                    $value
                );

	            // Make sure not to put the protocol in links
	            $data[$key] = str_replace( 'https://', '//', $data[$key] );
            }
        }
    }

    return $data;
}

function of_filter_load_media_upload($data) {

// Updated by IshYoBoy

if ( is_array($data)) {

foreach ($data as $key => $value) {

if (is_string($value)) {

$data[$key] = str_replace(

array(

'[site_url]',

'[site_url_secure]',

array(

site_url('', 'http'),

$value

);

// Make sure not to put the protocol in links

$data[$key] = str_replace( 'https://', '//', $data[$key] );

}

return $data;

}

Now please make sure to go to “Theme Options” and re-save all changes again. This step is very important as we need to re-create all links again.

There will sure be some parts which will need update even after this change. Please provide the URL so we can identify all of them. Thanks

Cheers

Hey Daniel,

Have you made any changes to any of the files inside “wp-content/themes/minicorp/” folder except the change we mentioned above? So to the original theme? Can we replace it completely?

Thanks

Hey,

Since we have no user access to the WordPress administration, please go to “Theme Options” an hit the “Save All Changes” button so the css file is re-created.

P.S. We recommend doing all the changes you need to do to a child-theme and not the parent one. There is a Child Theme pre-prepared in the zip from ThemeForest. You can upload it, activate it, choose the correct menu for the main navigation again and it’s done. All custom CSS can then be done to it without touching the parent theme files.

In this way you can update the parent theme anytime without having to re-do all your changes again ;)

Fine, it seems to be fixed now.
Thanks for the tip with the child theme, I will check it out.

Thank you!

Hey,

Seems to be working just fine. Just make sure to change the content of About Us page and remove the “https:” from the source of the images. So:

https://domain.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Daniel.jpg

must become either:

//domain.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Daniel.jpg

or https:

https://domain.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Daniel.jpg

Hey,

And any hyperlinks, links in button shortcode, image paths, any links in any shortcode, etc.. inside the content of ANY page will have to be entered using https. It might be a good idea to have HTTPS on even during content management.

I will note that. But I think I will force SSL only in the WooCommerce checkout.
