website certificate warning

  • Hi all please help – I have finally got the website running https://hattiegotobed.co.uk but several friends who have tried to see the site say it comes up with a security warning – (seems to work on ipads but not computers and phones) I am guessing due to firefox or the like – what can I do to get around this? the website is to show my daughters acting/model work so very simple – please could you explain in simple terms please ??

    Thanks Tracy x

  • Why are you sending out a https secure link and have the site setup – the site URL – for https? You don’t have a SSL certificate for https, and that’s the warnings viewers are getting. Your site is http, unless you *want* it to be https secure for some reason. If so, get an SSL certificate.

    Send your friends this link: https://www.hattiegotobed.co.uk/. https is only used when you connect to a secure website with SSL certificate. Since you don’t have one, your friends get this SSL error / warning.

    Thanks for help – songdogtech – I have changed the https to http – most links are now working great without the error certificate coming up – some are still so guessing some links in my website are still https so will investigate

    Thanks

    @romeha3: check Dashboard>>Settings>>General for the URL settings. And check all menu links; and any internal links in each post/page that you may have added.
