Are you using this plugin? https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-https/

Let me know 🙂

[Daniel]

Hi yes i had that installed but recently removed it.

[Tom]

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.

[Daniel]

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.

[Tom]

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?

[Daniel]

Hi i sent the login.

[Tom]

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

[Daniel Akowuah]

Today Most images are not showing up on all pages 🙁

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

[Tom]

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.
