SSL warnings during checkout

So I noticed today that I get a pop-up warning on IE during checkout. And a “!” on the padlock in FF. FF says: “warning: contains unauthenticated content”. IE has a pop-up window that asks if “Do you want to view the webpage content that was delivered securely?”



How do I track down this problem? I never used SSL before since all my payments are processed on PayPal and 2Checkout. But with this cart I decided it would be good peace of mind for my smart customers to see the padlock when they are putting in their address, etc. But with these warnings it is probably costing me orders…not making me orders.

Most likely you have at least one image “hardcoded” as in [url]http://www.yoursite.com/images/yourimage.jpeg[/url]



your images should be referenced as simply /images/yourimage.jpeg



This will eliminate the “do you want to display the non-secure content” error messages.

Oddly, disabling my footer block during checkout fixed the problem. Not really an issue as I didn’t want it enabled during checkout anyway. Still quite odd though.

Well, so you narrowed it down, is there a hardcoded image within your footer block?

Struck, that is what I figured which is why I stared disabling blocks. I noticed my footer block was there and didn’t want it. Disabled it and it started working. I wonder how many lost sales I have lost over the last few days because of that?..at least it’s fixed now.

And yes, the image in my footer was hard coded.
