I have just come across this problem too.
The solution is a little outside of my tech comfort zone – do you have a date for releasing a fix update?
Thanks
That’s great.
Many thanks Paolo.

I’m not sure you’ll need admin credentials to verify the problem – just use the password that I sent you earlier to access the site and you’ll see the status bar problem on the home page as well as the cause by using control+shift+K – the problem disappears when Marker Cluster Addon is disabled, suggesting it is something in the way the plugin is written that is the issue. Let me know if you really do need admin access though and I’ll set up an admin account for testing – I will need an email address from you to do so though.

Sorry for the confusion – I thought this was a specific plugin bug, as distinct from a general support issue – I’ll go back to that support thread (now that it has had an response!)
… apparently so …
having looked a little into this it appears to me that the compromise to my SSL clean bill of health is caused by geodirectory marker cluster plugin – and indeed when it is deactivated the problem disappears.
… so, off to see if there is a Marker Cluster bugs forum …
Hello – anyone out there? – am I invisible?
…it’s issue 2 that I’d appreciate a pointer on – it would save me many hours (of potentially fruitless) research!
anyone?
ah – unfixed 🙁
Console is showing 2 red items:
1. “This site makes use of a SHA-1 Certificate; it’s recommended you use certificates with signature algorithms that use hash functions stronger than SHA-1.” (I had this before but it didn’t seem to be significant when I sorted the background image problem – can’t believe I have been sold an SSL certificate that uses out-of-date security algorithms!)
2. “Loading mixed (insecure) display content “http://google-maps-utility-library-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/markerclusterer/images/m1.png” on a secure page” – this is new, showing up since I added more test listings that lead to the cluster marker showing – I’m not so sure how to fix this.
Ideas gratefully received…
FIXED!
In case it helps out anyone else, here are details:
I did a Control+Shift+K to get the console up (some sort of diagnostic tool) that showed that my site body background image (a.jpg) was being served http:// not https://
Checking in GDF Options, body background image was in fact listed as ‘https://……’ – I deleted it and checked the front of site – warning triangle gone – so I reloaded the body background image again and checked front of site – warning triangle gone.
Chuffed!
Can anyone recommend a tool or plugin to check what plugins/content might be causing this type of problem? I found one plugin that appeared to address this but it had not been updated in 2 years.
Thanks… that should have been https:// of course!
This reply has been marked as private.… and now I have installed Chromium for testing and it’s icon (grey with yellow triangle), when clicked through to get information states:
“Your connection to the site is encrypted, but Google Chrome has found something on the page that could be unwanted images or ads. We suggest you don’t enter private or personal information on this page”
Great!
Well, it appears to have worked.
The only disappointing thing (so far) is the grey warning triangle (with exclamation mark) in the url bar – clicking on it gives the warning “This website does not supply identity information” and “The connection to this website is not totally secure …” (to do with unencrypted images?) (in Firefox)
In the wordpress back-end I get the grey padlock, which does verify the site and that the connection is secure.
A bit perplexing – more time exploring this when I ought to be working on something else!
I would be grateful for any pointers from others who have come across this issue.
Thanks
