in 1.6 i had ssl set up and all was rub fine in every browser
i turned it off due to not being able to come up with good solution to adverts from none https sites 

the new  updated facebook conect and friend inviter has been updated to facebook api 2.0 that requires ssl 

in 1.7 i have 3 problems 
2 are plugin related
but one is for some reason internet explorer thinks the sign in pop up and sign in page are not secure and if user dose not click display none secure content the sign in pop does not pop up 

why no padlock is showing the site is secure no issues with sign in

I'm sorry Tammy, but we do not provide instructions on SSL configuration, you need to wait for the reply from other community members

is strange never had any problem in 1.6 every browser fully locked with adverts plugin turned off
 in firefox and chrome the lock is not fully locking and every test says it should be 

one option i can do for now is in htaccess turn ssl of off every page viewable by none logged in members

the problem with index is oxwall facebook conect plugin 

now i can work on that latter but i have issue with the new photo plugin  old one worked fine on ssl but the new one must be calling external javascript or something not https 

as all the links and everything else is fine

Tammy, we do not call any third-party js. All files are included in the software and have relative paths, so there should not be problem with protocol. We checked your report at our demo and everything works fine. Try to enable DEV_MODE to recompile the source. Replace the 'false' with the '32' value and refresh the page.

not still get the only showing secure content 
and unless click show secure content login page will not even open
if you wait untill the box disapears not click it login open but get error on try sign in
click show none secure content can login 

the problem is not on mobile sign in 

also the new photo page is not secure breaks the seal and so does index photo widget 

the  3 issues do not raise any flags on run pages through ssl tests 
every test say all good but they break the seal

Tammy,  as far as I've understood you have problems with the several areas on the site. However, it's quite difficult to understand the exact problems you've got faced with by the explanation you provide.
As I said we could not reproduce the issues you've reported at our demo site. So, if you want us to assist you with these issues - it would be better if you provided us with the screenshots of the error message you receive and provide as more details as possible. This will help us to understand the problem and find the proper solution.

Tammy, unless you provide me with the, at least, screenshots - I will not be able to assist you.
What version of the Internet Explorer are you using?
What do you mean by saying 'with the seal broken'?
What do you mean by saying 'can not log in with explorer ' - the sign-in button is not clickable, or the button works, but after you enter the details nothing happens?
Do you have any banners or third-party widgets?
etc.

Tammy, I would appreciate if you explain the problem as detailed as possible.

ok 
deactivate facebook join and photo widget from index 
the padlock seal is fully locked site secure

enable facebook login the seal is broken the padlock is not fully locked but not fully broken fully unlocked
in firefox and chrome even though the seal padlock half locked the sign in button in console works the login pops up 
in explorer the seal padlock half locked and explorer give a popup saying only showing content thats secure cick here to show none secure content 
if you dont click that button login buttons does not work as explorer locks it because is not secure
click the show none secure content the page refreshes and the none secure content the login button works 

disable facebook login site fully sealed padlock fully locked and enable photo widget seal broken padlock half locked 

the same for photos page seal broken padlock half locked 

they both  worked fine in 1.6 
no adds and all plugins deactivated and same result 

user carousel that shows images does not break the seal padlock 

i am just reading now about new facebook api
the facebbook problem may be due to them release new 2.0 api that requires ssl to use site login 

i have younets login plugin and its fine for main site
 i was use the oxwall facebook join for mobile site that i have had to turn on since 1.7 messages is so heavy on loading the main site on mobiles 

so fixing ssl on oxwall facebook join i can do with out as hopefully it wont be to long until messages plugin is fixed 

but i do need to find a fix for photo page and index photo widget

Tammy, thank you very much for the explanation. Now I can see what the problem is.
Let's fix the problem with the Facebook connect button first:

Follow these steps:

- go to /ow_plugins/fbconnect/controllers/connect.php file, find this sting:

echo '<script src="http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js"></script>';

and replace with this one:

echo '<script src="//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js"></script>';

- go to /ow_plugins/fbconnect/bol/service.php file, find this string:

$fbLibUrl = 'http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js';


and replace with this one:

$fbLibUrl = '//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js';

To check if it solves the problem, go to the Join page and click the Sigh-in button - it should work now.

As to the Index page - the problem on the Index page is related to the Newsfeed, Video and other third-party widgets which use the http:// protocol.

The fact is that SSL requires all the requested resources to use https:// protocol.
This may happen for all resources which do not support SSL: games, videos, images, RSS, etc. For example, if a user adds a video with the http:// protocol or from the resource which does not support SSL, the Video widget will throw the error about the insecure resource. Thus, you will need to edit all the videos by adding the https:// protocol instead of http://

As to the Newsfeed - the content of the Nesfeed widget is static and contains URLs with the http:// protocol because this content was added before you activated SSL. To solve this problem you should clean up the Newsfeed for generating new URLs.

Also, I suggest that you open the site source using ctrl+u and check if it contains the http:// protocol for requested content like site graphics (logo, background, etc,) images, videos, etc.

I hope my explanation is clear enough. If not, please don't hesitate to get back to me for clarifications or additional instructions.

thanks daisy that fixed the facebook conect you rock

as to newsfeed i know the problems with it 
but i never mentioned anything about newsfeed 
the other problem with ssl is the new photo plugin the photo pages breaks the seal padlock half locked and the new photo widget on index page breaks the seal seal padlock half locked

i have checked the source and images are being called ssl https 
and run the pages through http://www.whynopadlock.com/ and other ssl test

Tammy, we checked the Photos at our demo and found no problems. Do you use clouds for storing your files? Please check if the photo URL contains protocol.

tammy harris Aug 6 '14

user carousel and photo carousel do not break the seal
