Hi,

I have recently moved website from http to https. I’m getting mixed content error by using this function: bbp_get_topic_author_link(). It returns avatar link from http instead of https, which causes the mixed content error in website. You can see it by checking browser console here: https://www.veikkausvihjeet.com/keskustelu/alue/vedonlyontiblogit/

Thanks

Hi Milanikolic,

Have you set your Site Address (URL) in Settings -> General, to HTTPS:// ?

Aside from that i am not allowed to connect from denmark, giving me timeouts. Do you eventually use geoblocking?

Hi Fuske, thanks for your answer.

Yes, I did changed setings to https.

And yes, admins are using some kind of geo blocking, I will talk to them and I will let you know if you could take a look.

Hi Fuske,

Admins told me that they are blocking only users from Russia. So you sohuld be able to visit the website now.

Thanks,
Milan

I have the same problem: https://dresdner-sc.de/forum/forums/dresdner-sc-forum/
The general-setting is also correct (https://).

I’m having the same problem on a multisite installation. I don’t want to hack the bbpress files since it would be a hassle every update, but it displays a gnarly message in place of the secure connection icon.

There is no site url setting in a multisite installation, so I can’t set it to https.

Since switching to HTTPS you need to update your siteurl and homeurl to use HTTPS at /wp-admin/options-general.php

For multisite @ragir it depends how you have your site setup, this article covers your options on what you can, and can not do to switch to https for multisite 🙂

Hi Stephen,

As I already stated above, I hav already updated siteurl and homeurl to HTTPS, so that’s not an issue.

[@eenergy Participant 7 years, 9 months ago]

Hey Stephen,

the siteurl and homeurl are correct (https://).
And yet the avatar images are not retrieved correctly. But only the avatar-links. Everything else is correct.

I’m having this same issue. Is there a reason the function couldn’t be changed to a protocol-relative path, i.e. “//blah.com” instead of “http://blah.com”? That way it’d inherit the correct protocol, no? I’m also getting this error for the avatar images only. If I delete my avatar image I get a green padlock.
