SSL compatibility ?

Hey there FloMoriniere,

How are you doing today?

That’s odd as there appears to already be a check for http v https in the plugin in buddypress-activity-plus/bpfb.php at line 29:

define ('BPFB_PROTOCOL', (is_ssl() ? 'https://' : 'https://'), true);

What issues exactly are you experiencing when activating the plugin on your site?

Best regards,
Bojan

Hello Bojan , and thanks for your answer !
Well yes indeed the line 29 is as mentioned.

But the behavior I can see – especially with firefox, is a warning given by the browser (only once the buddypress activity plus is activated) saying that the connection is only partially encrypted.

Does it ring a bell ?

thanks !

Hey again FloMoriniere,

Can you please paste here the warning you’re getting?

Best regards,
Bojan

Hi Bojan

Of course, here are the details on Firefox :
Connection is not secure
The connection to this web site is not fully secure because it contains unencrypted elements (such as images) or the encryption is not strong enough.

I can have more details, and they give the following :

Connection Partially Encrypted
Parts of the page you are viewing were not encrypted before being transmitted over the Internet or the encryption is not strong enough.
Information sent over the Internet without encryption can be seen by other people while it is in transit.

Hey there FloMoriniere,

Thanks for additional information, I understand what the issue is now.

The issue is not related when user uploads image via “Upload a file” button as the image is stored in the uploads folder in your server and it can be served via HTTPS.

The issue is related to images added to activity feed via add image URL or when you add links that contain thumbnails, all shared images from another sites. We can not force those images via SSL URL as there is a possibility they can not be served via SSL which would cause images not to be displayed if that makes sense.

Hope this helps ??

Best regards,
Bojan

I’m getting the same error. My site passes all the whynopadlock test. and yes my uploads folder is on my https server
but for some reason, which I’ve been searching for days now, I can’t figure out why After getting an SSL Cert, when
I try to upload an image from my local computer, I first get:

1. “image.jpg0.3MBFailed”

2. the green padlock goes away

Inspect element: console Error:

3. Loading mixed (insecure) display content “https://www.mysite.com/wp-content/uploads/bpfb/tmp/undefined” on a secure page[Learn More] FIREFOX

How can this issue be resolved?
