SSL & HTTPS

How do I fix a mixed content warning?

A mixed content warning means your page loads over secure https:// but still pulls in some items (images, scripts, stylesheets or fonts) over insecure http://. The browser then hides the padlock or shows "Not fully secure".

To fix it, every resource must load over HTTPS:

  1. Find the culprit. Open the page, right-click and choose Inspect, then look at the Console tab for "Mixed Content" messages that name the offending files.
  2. Update the links. Change any hard-coded http:// URLs in your pages, theme or database to https:// (or to protocol-relative //).

For WordPress, the quickest fix is:

Also check anything embedded from outside, such as an image hotlinked from another site over HTTP; either serve it over HTTPS or host it yourself.

Once every resource is HTTPS, reload with a hard refresh and the padlock returns. If you are unsure which file is to blame, send us the page URL on WhatsApp +971 58 553 6767 or support@dirhamaday.ae and we will pinpoint it.
