Title: Various problems, with HTTPS padlock not showing Last modified: August 30, 2016 --- # Various problems, with HTTPS padlock not showing * Resolved [HostIce](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hostice/) * (@hostice) * [10 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/various-problems-with-https-padlock-not-showing/) * Hi, * I’ve installed an SSL certificate on the site [http://www.furniturefarm.co.uk](https://furniturefarm.co.uk/), installed and activated Really Simple SSL and not only am I getting the error mentioned in [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/siteurl-or-homeurl-in-your-wp-configphp?replies=13](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/siteurl-or-homeurl-in-your-wp-configphp?replies=13), but the HTTPS part of the site address showing in the address bar is not showing green and there is no padlock showing. * Having checked my wp-config fine there is no mention of: * > define(‘WP_HOME’,’[http://example.com’](http://example.com’););

You should change it to https. I will add this type of link to the mixed content fixer in the next release. * * You also still have several http:// links to your own website in the source. This suggests the mixed content fixer is blocked by a theme or plugin. To fix it, deactivate plugins until it starts working, or fix the links manually by checking your theme settings, plugins and content for http:// links. * As for the wp-config warning, I’ve made a change to the detection mechanism, you can check if that helps by downloading the current development version. If that doesn’t help, could you email me the content of your wp-config.php, (you can remove passwords etc of course), so I can test with it. * Thread Starter [HostIce](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hostice/) * (@hostice) * [10 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/various-problems-with-https-padlock-not-showing/#post-6809846) * > To fix it, deactivate plugins until it starts working, or fix the links manually > by checking your theme settings, plugins and content for http:// links. * I wouldn’t know how to start even finding which theme settings, plugins or content needed the links fixing manually, never mind how to fix them manually unless you mean editing all references to HTTP to HTTPS 🙁 * This is a nightmare, I can’t be starting disabling plugins either, this is a busy time for the site and doing that will cause real problems, how do I identify what theme settings, plugins and content requires editing? * Where can I get a the current development version from too? * Plugin Contributor [Rogier Lankhorst](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rogierlankhorst/) * (@rogierlankhorst) * [10 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/various-problems-with-https-padlock-not-showing/#post-6809857) * Hi, * Development version: [http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/really-simple-ssl/trunk](http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/really-simple-ssl/trunk) * But this is only the wpconfig warning, and does not really cause issues. It’s just a nag. * if you can’t try by disabling plugins, then you can either deactivate the ssl plugin and revert back to http until you have tested the issue on a separate install, or do it manually. * To give you some pointers: Start with the mixed content list as you sent it to me. The first entries are posts/pages, which should be simple enough. * Then check your widget html You have some gallery plugin, check that too. One by one, check your plugin settings for urls, and change it to https. * Thread Starter [HostIce](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hostice/) * (@hostice) * [10 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/various-problems-with-https-padlock-not-showing/#post-6809881) * It’s W3 Total Cache that is breaking the security that SSL Insecure Content Fixer fixed in it’s hardest Capture mode, but as soon as you enable W3 Total Cache page caching the padlock goes as it starts presenting non HTPPS files… * Will have to look for a caching plugin that will work with SSL and your plugin, with it not helping that my browser cache was holding it as broken too. * Many thanks for your input. * Holmey * Thread Starter [HostIce](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hostice/) * (@hostice) * [10 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/various-problems-with-https-padlock-not-showing/#post-6809885) * Tried WP Super Cache, that breaks things too 🙁 * Plugin Contributor [Rogier Lankhorst](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rogierlankhorst/) * (@rogierlankhorst) * [10 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/various-problems-with-https-padlock-not-showing/#post-6809907) * I always use wp fastest cache, with good results.
