 * I activated this plugin, used the shortcode and it is not working on multiple
   pages. I also read through many of the prior support tickets in the forum and
   tried to make some changes based on them including looking at the browser developer
   console logs, confirmed all frame links are SSL, etc. and still, the shortcode
   doesn’t work. Here are some other pages on the site with the issue:

 * Please let me know what I can do to fix this issue and get these iframes working.

 * Hi [@easyrealtysites](https://wordpress.org/support/users/easyrealtysites/)
 * This is the error in the browser console log:
 * > Mixed Content: The page at ‘[https://mlkar.yournewsites.com/florida-keys-info/marathon-area/marathon-tourism-info/&#8217](https://mlkar.yournewsites.com/florida-keys-info/marathon-area/marathon-tourism-info/&#8217);
   > was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure frame ‘[http://www.fla-keys.com/marathon/&#8217](http://www.fla-keys.com/marathon/&#8217);.
   > This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.
 * That means that page protocol (in your case HTTPS) needs to match the iframe 
   SRC protocol. Now it does not match.
 * So to fix this you need to change the SRC of the iframe from “http” to “https”.
   
   Please let me know if any additional questions.

 * Hi Webvitalli,
    Thank you for the prompt response and while the mixed content
   may address that one instance I did provide other pages that aren’t working, 
   some of which use https:// links. And when I tried to update the instance you
   replied about [https://mlkar.yournewsites.com/florida-keys-info/marathon-area/marathon-tourism-info/](https://mlkar.yournewsites.com/florida-keys-info/marathon-area/marathon-tourism-info/)
   to make the iframe link https:// it just spins and doesn’t allow me to save the
   page update (I have experienced this a lot using iframes on this site). Can you
   please let me know how I can address this. Thanks.

 * I tried to update the URL of the iframe on the page you posted dynamically via
   browser from HTTP to HTTPS and it worked (I was able to see the embedded iframe).
 * Unfortunately I dont know what might cause the issue that you are not able to
   update the page. That might be related to something else and it is hard to guess.
