Mixed Content Errors Look Bad

Google has made getting sites switched over to HTTPS a priority. Initially they offered the carrot of a small SEO boost to all sites accessible over SSL, now they are taking out the whip. Back in July 2018, version 68 of the Chrome browser marked all non-HTTPS sites with a highlight “Not Secure” in its URL bar. You should definitely make the move over to HTTPS if you haven’t done so yet (here’s a great how-to article  if you fancy doing it yourself).

 

For those of you that have made the switch, you may run into the dreaded Mixed Content Errors. Simply put, these errors result from your HTTPS site trying to serve resources (often images, but also script and iframes among others) over HTTP.

Why are Mixed Content Errors bad?

The effect of the Mixed Content Errors on the reader’s experience can differ with the browser being used, but according to this article from Google, these errors weaken the security of the entire page. In Chrome, for example, your site will lose the green Secure padlock.

How can Mixed Content Errors Be Fixed?

Resolving Mixed Content Errors may simply require changing the resources referenced in your posts to be served over HTTPS instead of HTTP. However, if those resources are not available over HTTPS (because, unlike you, the host of those resources hasn’t yet installed an SSL Certificate), those resources will break. This can lead to missing images and broken script functionality that you’ll want to track down and clean up.

Let The Blog Fixer ™ Help Optimize Your Move to HTTPS

For these reasons, we created the Mixed Content Error Fix:

  • This fix will scour your posts for resources still being served over HTTP.
  • If any resource is available to be served over HTTPS, it will be updated to do so.
  • At the end of the service, we will present you with a list of posts and resources that can’t be served over HTTPS and will need to be replaced manually or removed altogether.
