I am trying to get approved for a new merchant account and the underwriters have concerns about my ssl checkout process.

They go the following warning:

"Your connection to www.mysite.com is encrypted with 128-bit encryption. However, this page includes other resources which are not secure. These resources can be viewed by others while in transit, and can be modified by an attacker to change the look of the page."


I was reading into this here - [stackoverflow.com ] and they suggested changing internal links from http to https.

How would I do that in WordPress? is there an easy way to edit this in a settings? I have coded most of my images like /images/img.gif but some content like my site logo was uploaded to the blog and that may point to http ://www.mysite.com/wp-content/uploads/logo.gif, instead of just /wp-content/uploads/logo.gif.

What is the easiest way to fix this?

Change the URL in your settings to https: and it should deliver all your WP content only under https: links. That Settings link in in the admin sidebar, near the bottom of the sidebar. It is the same place you originally put your site's URL.

I have a few images that were pointing to http ://www.mysite.com/wp-content/uploads/logo.gif instead of just /wp-content/uploads/logo.gif.

I went to the cart, right clicked to view the source and spotted them all.

Easy fix. :)

I'm glad it was an easy fix. Sometimes these can be maddening!
