 * Hello,
 * I am getting Mixed Content error and looking for some solution then I have came
   across your plugin but before installing this plugin on my live website I want
   to ask one question as below.
 * I want to run http:// & https:// both together without forcing https:// to the
   full website. Is it possible to supply // in all URL instead of http:// or https://
   so it’ll take automatically http:// by default and when user land using https://
   it’ll automatically take https:// and it’ll also resolve issue as well.
 * Is it possible to do with this plugin? without forcing https:// to complete website
   run as flexible as we want.
 * Waiting for your favorable reply.
 * Thanks,
    Group of oceninfo

 * G’day Group of oceninfo,
 * This plugin will on-the-fly change some links to assets like images, stylesheets,
   scripts. It does not change any other links, so it can be safely used on a site
   that switches back and forth between http and https.
 * Because it changes things on-the-fly, you can activate the plugin to get some
   fixes, and deactivate the plugin to go back to the old state. This allows you
   to make permanent fixes at your leisure, or not at all.
 * For the assets it fixes, it replaces http with https. This is best, because `//`(
   protocol-free URIs) are not always valid — think about emails, for example, where
   an html email loaded in an email app won’t have a protocol. [`//` has even been called an anti-pattern](http://www.paulirish.com/2010/the-protocol-relative-url/).
 * cheers,
    Ross

 * Hi Ross,
 * Thanks for your reply.
 * Yup your reply make more sense change URL and fix and disable plugin but Website
   is too big and I don’t want to take any risk so I have done some more google 
   and came across that issue was because of W3 Total cache plugin. It’s fixed under
   W3 Total Cache as below.
 * I have to mark Cache SSL (https) requests, Cache SSL request ticked and resolve
   my http & https caching issue that’s why it was giving me an error of mixed content
 * Thanks again for your response.

 * Hello WebAware, I too just installed your plug-in on my site and the mixed content
   error is still there. I noticed that when I perform a page refresh the lock turns
   green for a second and then goes back to gray. This happens each and every time
   using Firefox. Also I am not seeing any errors in Firefox Web Tools.
 * My entire site is supposed to force SSL so not http is involved.

 * Hi,
 * I have tried this plugin and it fixed mixed content error on home page but for
   other page like about, service, portfolio it’s still serving http:// image file.
 * All Cache are cleared and tested but still no pad lock on some of the page.
 * I have select option as Widgets so it’ll cover Everything that content & simple
   covered.
 * Waiting for your favorable reply.

 * Have you made the change in WordPress to tell it your site is now HTTPS and not
   HTTP? YOu have to force your site from http to https and then activate the plug-
   in. There are a couple of ways to force https on your site, google “WordPress
   Force HTTPS” and see what to do.
