HOW TO FIX MIXED CONTENT ERRORS +
wordpress.org/plugins/ssl-insecure-content-fixer/
Clean up your WordPress website’s HTTPS insecure content and mixed content warnings. Installing the SSL Insecure Content Fixer plugin will solve most insecure content warnings with little or no effort. The remainder can be diagnosed with a few simple tools.
If you’ve recently added an SSL certificate you may expect to see a secured padlock symbol in the URL bar when visiting your site. However, in some cases you can run into an issue called “mixed content” or “insecure content” where the site is flagged as not fully secure. This means the site is being requested over secured URL, but some individual assets on the page aren’t being loaded securely.
You’ll need to find the source of that image—again, wherever it’s being pulled into the page—and either edit “http” to “https” *or* make the link a relative link instead of an absolute link (by eliminating everything before the first slash after “centerforworldmusic.org”).
Copy from forum post
I’m sorry but I don’t understand your advice. I’m not sure what it means to add images “from the theme options.” So far as I know, all of the images on our site have been added via the media library. Neither do I understand what it would mean to “replace them.” Does that mean delete them from the media library and upload them again?
Here’s one example. Whynopadlock.com consistently says that the primary logo on the site is insecure, thus:
Insecure URL: <a href="http://centerforworldmusic.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/logo_w_red_type_52.png"
However, when I look for this item in my media library, I find it at a secure (https) address:
https://centerforworldmusic.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/logo_w_red_type_52.png
Any further clarification and help you could provide would be appreciated.
Answer:
In the meida library it is showing the secure url but there might be cache plugin which is keeping the cached images. So the image is loading from that cached file with insecure http. so we can fix it in several way:
- 1. We can find the cahced file edit that image url in there
- 2. We can delete the image from media library permanently and upload again and clear the cache
- 3.

SSL & CSR Decoder (namecheap)
Submit your base64 encoded CSR or certificate in the field below. We will attempt to decode and analyze it to detect issues with it if any.
A Multi-Domain SSL certificate can secure your main domain along with several SANs (Subject Alternative Names) domain names in one certificate.
Multi-Domain certificates are often used for Unified Communications (UC) to secure Microsoft Exchange 2010 Server, Office Communications Server 2007 or Mobile Device Manager.
For example, you can secure all these domains with a single SAN certificate:
www.namecheap.com
www.exchange.namecheap.com
www.namecheapgroup.com
www.web-hosting.com

The PositiveSSL secure site seal is a visual stamp displayed on a web site indicating the site is secure and trustworthy, letting users know any transaction, purchase, or personal data transmitted through the site is safe.
Force HTTPS SSL Redirect
HTTPS SSL refers to a secure socket layer which increases your website’s security. This protects your consumers’ data as well as helps avoid man in the middle attack on your website. Google even gives organic search priority to websites that are secure. Here is the code to force your HTTPS SSL version to be shown:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
This also prevents duplicate content being live on both www.yourdomain.com/cars and https://www.yourdomain.com/cars. As such search engines are more likely to properly crawl and index your website.

Some Definitions
- CSR: What is a CSR? A CSR or
Certificate Signing requestis a block of encoded text that is given to a Certificate Authority when applying for an SSL Certificate. It is usually generated on the server where the certificate will be installed and contains information that will be included in the certificate such as the organization name, common name (domain name), locality, and country. It also contains the public key that will be included in the certificate. A private key is usually created at the same time that you create the CSR, making a key pair. A CSR is generally encoded using ASN.1 according to the PKCS #10 specification. - CA: A
certificate authoritywill use a CSR to create your SSL certificate, but it does not need your private key. You need to keep your private key secret. The certificate created with a particular CSR will only work with the private key that was generated with it. So if you lose the private key, the certificate will no longer work.
