Non https link in header blocking post updates
3 replies · Started by Matt on August 25, 2017
Hi,
I'm tracking down a problem with my WordPress posts/pages, where an update will not be saved because there's a non-secure link.
I think it's the following (out of template-tags.php?), but don't know for sure.
<p>
<label for="_meta-generate-page-header-image-link" class="example-row-title"><strong>Page Header Link</strong></label><br />
<input style="width:350px" placeholder="http://" id="_meta-generate-page-header-image-link" type="text" name="_meta-generate-page-header-image-link" value="" />
</p>
Any help appreciated!

That wouldn't be it - that's just a placeholder.
How do you know it's because of a insecure link? Are you getting an error?
I'm getting an error message when I try to create a post/page with an image:
Mixed Content: The page at 'https://sparks-auctions.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=12734&action=edit' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure XMLHttpRequest endpoint 'http://sparks-auctions.com/'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.
And when I follow the debug that's the only http: link on the page that's not an external link or commented out.
Thanks,

That's not actually a link - it's equivalent to some text, it doesn't go anywhere or do anything - it's just a field placeholder.
Are any of the external links http?
