https page getting nonsecure items warning with IE

Gretchen, I visited your site and I see that you resolved the issue. I have a similar situation.

I have a single page (“contact”) that I want to be HTTPS, so I configured my .htaccess as follows:

NOTE: I am running on a shared host ISP

[BEGIN .HTACCESS SNIPPET]

Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine on
#
# Redirect to force SSL and trailing slash on bad links to donate-now page
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !=443 [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/$
RewriteRule ^contact/?$ https://www.mydomain.net/contact/ [R=301,L]
#
# Redirect to add missing trailing slash unless URL ends with a "filetype"
RewriteRule ^(([^/]+/)*[^./]*[^/])$ https://www.mydomain.net/$1/ [R=301,L]
#
# Redirect all non-canonical hostname requests to canonical domain, preserving SSL/non-SSL
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.mydomain\.net$
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT}s ^(443(s)|[0-9]+)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http%2://www.mydomain.net/$1 [R=301,L] 

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

[END .HTACCESS SNIPPET]

My goal was that whenever a user goes to https://www.mydomain.net/contact then that page should be HTTPS, and the above .htaccess does that by forcing the HTTP to become HTTPS. However, I still get the ‘nonsecure items’ warning in IE when going to this page.

If I do a VIEW SOURCE of my /contact page I can see that the WP-generated links to my theme/stylesheet/javascript files only have HTTP, so that is probably why I am getting the ‘nonsecure items’ message.

I noticed on your site that you successfully not only force your /donate page to be HTTPS but that you no longer cause the ‘nonsecure items’ warning to be displayed in IE, and if I do a VIEW SOURCE or your /donate page I can see that your WP-generated links to theme, stylesheet, etc., have a HTTPS prefix.

How can I similarly get my non-HTTPS WP links to be generated by WP as HTTPS for this single /contact page within my WP site?

All suggestions appreciated

Any luck with this? I too have this issue and it’s driving me a little bit nuts.
