    I have my site working fine with SSL via https however a GD style sheet is causing a mixed content problem on ALL pages(see below):

    Mixed Content: The page at ‘https://www.commnet.ac.uk/mission-statement/’ was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure stylesheet ‘http://www.commnet.ac.uk/wp-content/plugins/geodir_buddypress/css/gdbuddypress-style.css?ver=1.0.7’. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

    How do I make sure this URL is prefixed with https? I have searched the database and codex and can’t seem to find where this is being generated to change it?

    Another glitch relates to the Map and the Map bubble window – The URL being generated in geodir_bubble_dsec area is being generated with http and not https. However the URL’s being generated in the listing area geodir_entry_title correctly have https. You can see problem here: https://www.commnet.ac.uk/places/
    Again can you point me in the right direction to correct this problem?

    Thanks in advance,
    Mark

    Hi,

    in Settings >> General

    Did you add https to the WordPress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL)?

    See image attached.

    That should be enough…

    If you have, please provide admin credentials in a private reply and we will have a look.

    Let us know,

    Thanks

    Our hosting company has been helping us with regards getting the SSL and https side of things working and this was achieved by amending the .htaccess file (adding a rewrite condition and rule) and wp-config file (switching https on).

    The two fields that you mention in the WP dashboard (settings >> general) are locked and if you try to change them in the wp-config file via: define(‘WP_SITEURL’, ‘http://’ . $_SERVER[‘HTTP_HOST’] . ‘/’); changing to https:// then all pages throw a PHP error relating to geodirectory saying headers already sent.

    RE: URL’s: As the site stands at the moment the GD listing page for example is generating the correct URL’s with https: prefix in the body. However the Map >> bubble window title is generating a URL with a http: prefix.

    RE: Stylesheets – If you look at the source code generated (any page) you will see that most of the CSS links relating to the GD plugin are being correctly generated (see below).

    <link rel=”stylesheet” id=”geodir-core-scss-css” href=”https://www.commnet.ac.uk/wp-content/plugins/geodirectory/geodirectory-assets/css/gd_core_frontend.css?ver=1.5.3″ type=”text/css” media=”all”>

    <link rel=”stylesheet” id=”geodir-buddypress-style-css” href=”http://www.commnet.ac.uk/wp-content/plugins/geodir_buddypress/css/gdbuddypress-style.css?ver=1.0.7″ type=”text/css” media=”all”>

    So as you can see the GD core style sheet has the correct prefix https: and it’s just the GD BuddyPress styleheet URL that is being incorrectly generated.

    Both of these issues point towards it being a slight difference in the way these URL’s are being generated in the GD plugin codex.

    Please advise and kind regards,
    Mark

    We have managed to resolve this issue by removing the two statements that define the WordPress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL) in the wp-config file.
    This has been resolved and can be closed now.
    Thanks for your input.
