 * Does anyone know which files/code need to be altered in cforms II so that it 
   doesn’t make people’s browsers throw up the “nonsecure and secure items found”
   error, when using https.

 * You probably figured it out by now, but cforms seems to get the site url from
   the general settings page when it is activated. If you just changed your site
   to use SSL, de-activate and re-activate the cforms plugin. It worked for me.

 * Hi tmuka, I tried your suggestion. I changed the Blog address (URL) to [https://3packet.com](https://3packet.com)
   and reactivated the cforms plugin. THe form still hangs on https:// unfortunately.
   I tried it with changing the Blog address (URL) back to [https://3packet.com](https://3packet.com)
   but not reactivating cforms. That’s its current state.

 * I figured it out.
 * First, I went into wordpress general settings and changed the wordpress and blog
   address to [https://(site)](https://(site)). Then I went to cforms and went to
   the exact form and updated it (update button on top right side). Then I went 
   back to general settings and rechanged it back to [http://](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/code-changes-needed-to-make-cforms-ii-work-over-https/?output_format=md).
 * Then I changed the cforms_root line as referenced here in entry 4:
    [http://www.deliciousdays.com/cforms-forum/troubleshooting/https-problems/](http://www.deliciousdays.com/cforms-forum/troubleshooting/https-problems/)
 * Then the captcha and submit button wouldn’t work, so I went into plugin editor-
   > cforms -> js/cforms.js and changed the sajax_uri variable to either “[https://(fullpath)&#8221](https://(fullpath)&#8221);
   or ‘/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/cforms/lib_ajax.php’;
 * The path may or may not include /wordpress for you depending on your path.
 * My website is at [http://3packet.com](http://3packet.com)
 * Good luck all!
