 * Hi,
 * Until recently, my company’s website has been hosted by an el cheapo provider
   that only offered very basic HTTP hosting.
 * Earlier this summer I setup my own dedicated server with CentOS Linux, Apache,
   SSL and a LetsEncrypt certificate and moved my site to this new server.
 * Web browser like Firefox don’t display the green lock symbol in the upper left
   corner, which would mean that everything on the site is basically encrypted. 
   Instead, I get a yellow lock, which means that some page elements are still using
   HTTP instead of HTTPS.
 * The site is using the Zerif Lite theme. I just spent about an hour skimming through
   all the pages and identifying all the hardcoded elements (mostly images) on the
   various pages and moving them from HTTP to HTTPS.
 * Now there still seems to be some HTTP stuff left, and I can’t seem to identify
   it. Maybe some of you who know WordPress better than me can identify the elements
   and tell me where I can switch them from HTTP to HTTPS.
