Mixed Content Error

Mixed content error

If you recently installed an SSL on your site and some images are not loading properly, you should check if you have a mixed content error on your site. These errors are typically caused by assets that have http:// rather than https:// in their URL.

Select the tab with the name of the browser you're using to learn how to inspect your site with developer tools in that browser and verify the issue. You're looking for mixed content error warnings in the console log.

·       Chrome

·       Firefox

·       Safari

To look for errors in Google Chrome, visit your site in Google Chrome, select and hold (or right-click) somewhere on your page, and then select Inspect. In the top menu, select Console and look for red warnings about the mixed content error.

To fix the error, you can use a plugin or edit the .htaccess/web.config file. After that, visit your site in private browsing mode to see if the images are loading correctly.

If you still see the mixed content error, download your active theme to your local computer and search those files for your site's URL. You should update all URL entries from http:// to https://, such as changing http://coolexample.com to https://coolexample.com (use your actual domain instead coolexample.com) and reupload the files.
