    Default recent work has made ssl certificate stop displaying correctly?

    So I have recently had to disable the simple seo url module as this has caused my checkout to redirect on almost 90% of checkouts to the main page...

    once I have sorted this out I have foundthat I now have a problem with my ssl certificate. when in the checkout (pages where sll is supposed to be active) the blue bar appears in the firefox url window but then quickly dissapears. in internet explorer it causes a pop up message to say the page includes non secure items and may not display properly or something like that. so obviously something is causing an error in the ssl certificate.

    My guy who originally did my cart and does most of my tech support says that my cart is now to heavily modded for him to work on it as i have followed the security thread steps for my cart including changin the name of the admin page!

    The strange thing is as he is addamant it is the name change of the admin folder that has caused this error it seems strange that even though the ssl certificate is not in my public html folder and my admin page displays the ssl correctly???

    someone please feel free to point me in the right direction of what i can do to remedy this as it must be affecting sales as people will get put off when they see a warning error.


    my site's url is www.xboxmemberships.co.uk and my admin page is /cheese-admin if you don't quite understand and want to check it out for yourselves

    Some of your images on SSL pages are being called for from insecure pages. Example:
    <img src="http://www.xboxmemberships.co.uk/safebuy.jpg" border="0" /></a>
    Check that all image links are https and not http

    Is the correct solution. You should never hardcode pathways to images, and always use "relative" pathways (like above).

    unfortunatly if it is enteredas it should be above it does not work for some reason as it is part of a certificate. all is fine now though so i am happy with that

    I am having the same issue. however, for my 'login' page (for example) i have viewed source, and changed the one image that was 'hard coded' to a soft reference -ie no http://www... instead just "images/template...."

    site is:
    Code:
    http://www.customk9design.com
    click on login in upper left for error.

    thanks as always!

    yes. thank you. i had already submitted a support ticket to my web host provider prior to posting here... i have found its usually 'something on my end' though... and i stumbled upon this thread while researching another issue... and thought id throw it out there.
    but yeah, thanks anyways.
