Hi,
All my images are disappearing when on a page that uses SSL or HTTPS. ANyone have a fix?

Thanks

Hi yes i had that installed but recently removed it.

I would suggest you keep using it - it will automatically make sure everything on the page is encrypted, including images, which means they'll show up without any issues.

Ok but did not fix it. Images still not appearing. What do you make of it?

This plugin has compatibility issue with WP 4.0. It is broken.

Hmm, I'm seeing those reports as well - but I'm using that plugin on this site which is running 4.0 without any issues.

Can you link me to the page that isn't showing the images?

Hi i sent the login.

Shouldn't need login info just yet - can you point me to a page that has images not showing up?

Had to revert back to original template for now as it is a live site. I tried removing Wordpress HTTPS plugin but that did not allow the images to start appearing against on http:// or https://

ANy ideas?
Thanks

Hmm - I'm afraid there's not much I can do.

When you enable HTTPS - it will block elements that aren't secure.

So one thing you can try is in your code when you show an image (<img src="..), change the http:// to //.

So this would be your image now:

<img src="http://linktomyimage.com" />

And this would be your image after tweaking it for HTTPS:

<img src="//linktomyimage.com" />

This lets your browser decide whether to use http:// or https://

Hi thanks for the tips. Not sure how but the problem has corrected itself following generatepress updates. I had a tun of plugins installed as well so one of them may have been contributing to the problem.

Glad it's fixed :)
