Title: Doesn't Load Google Fonts as HTTPS in Admin Last modified: August 31, 2016 --- # Doesn't Load Google Fonts as HTTPS in Admin * Resolved [Company 50](https://wordpress.org/support/users/co50/) * (@co50) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-load-google-fonts-as-https-in-admin/) * We use a plugin called WordPress Branding that allows setting the admin font, in this case Ubuntu. However, it doesn’t load the font with your plugin installed, resulting in a crappy looking Times New Roman font used as a backup. Browser console shows the font is trying to be called via HTTP and so because the entire site is HTTPS it refuses to load. I think your plugin is missing this one. * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/really-simple-ssl/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/really-simple-ssl/) Viewing 12 replies - 1 through 12 (of 12 total) * Plugin Contributor [Rogier Lankhorst](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rogierlankhorst/) * (@rogierlankhorst) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-load-google-fonts-as-https-in-admin/#post-6985600) * Could you send me a screenshot of the browserconsole, and the part of the sourcecode where this link is located? * Thread Starter [Company 50](https://wordpress.org/support/users/co50/) * (@co50) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-load-google-fonts-as-https-in-admin/#post-6985611) * You got it. * [https://co50.com/Desktop.zip](https://co50.com/Desktop.zip) * Plugin Contributor [Rogier Lankhorst](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rogierlankhorst/) * (@rogierlankhorst) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-load-google-fonts-as-https-in-admin/#post-6985655) * And is the mixed content fixer active? You can check this by looking the source for the really simple ssl comment. * Thread Starter [Company 50](https://wordpress.org/support/users/co50/) * (@co50) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-load-google-fonts-as-https-in-admin/#post-6985656) * Yes it is…I double-checked this before I wrote you. * Plugin Contributor [Rogier Lankhorst](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rogierlankhorst/) * (@rogierlankhorst) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-load-google-fonts-as-https-in-admin/#post-6985675) * A bit of a mystery here. The comment shows the content is passed through the mixed content fixing script. I’ve tested the regex on your link, it matches. So the scripts in the really simple ssl plugin should work. There is probably a plugin conflict of some sorts. * That said, I think no plugin should have hardcoded links to http included. The mixed content fixer is not really meant to fix items on the backend, as plugins should not cause mixed content. * Thread Starter [Company 50](https://wordpress.org/support/users/co50/) * (@co50) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-load-google-fonts-as-https-in-admin/#post-6985678) * I hear you. I raised the issue to you because when I was using the very outdated but still popular “WordPress HTTPS (SSL)” plugin before yours, this issue did not crop up. So while I wanted to blame the author of the WordPress Branding plugin, I couldn’t point the finger definitely there since it worked properly with another force-HTTPS plugin. * Plugin Contributor [Rogier Lankhorst](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rogierlankhorst/) * (@rogierlankhorst) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-load-google-fonts-as-https-in-admin/#post-6985680) * Yes, it’s strange the link isn’t fixed, which it should. I’ve added it to the todo list for the next update. If I can duplicate it, I can probably fix it. For now, I can’t really help you out with this. * Thread Starter [Company 50](https://wordpress.org/support/users/co50/) * (@co50) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-load-google-fonts-as-https-in-admin/#post-6985681) * No worries. I’ve been tolerating it for a couple months in hopes one of your updates might fix it but wanted to say something so it was on your radar. * Plugin Contributor [Rogier Lankhorst](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rogierlankhorst/) * (@rogierlankhorst) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-load-google-fonts-as-https-in-admin/#post-6985779) * I think I’ve fixed it, it works on my test environment. I’ll be pushing out a beta soon. * Thread Starter [Company 50](https://wordpress.org/support/users/co50/) * (@co50) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-load-google-fonts-as-https-in-admin/#post-6985790) * Awesome! Thanks for being so proactive. * Thread Starter [Company 50](https://wordpress.org/support/users/co50/) * (@co50) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-load-google-fonts-as-https-in-admin/#post-6985912) * Any luck on this? Latest version of your plugin still has the issue. * Plugin Contributor [Rogier Lankhorst](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rogierlankhorst/) * (@rogierlankhorst) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-load-google-fonts-as-https-in-admin/#post-6985913) * The issue seems to be the way the mixed content fixer uses the output buffer. I found I fix, which in fact did solve the issue, and worked perfectly on front- end and back-end…only breaks the WordPress Media library. So I removed the “fix” for the time being. If I find a fix, I’ll let you know.
