ssl photos not loading

  • I know I’m really late in updating my website to ssl, but I was wondering if anyone resolved the issue of the petfinder photos not showing after converting to https://
    It looks like their photos and such have been updated to https:// but they do not show on my site.

    Thank you! I really hate their custom scroller, but I had to put that up temporarily to show adoptable dogs ?? Here’s the page with the pet scroller in case it’s needed for reference https://www.petsandpeople.com/adoptable-cats/

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

  • Hello Roxy,
    I was having the same issue on a site I was working on. The pet finder api as is. I reached out to their support team and they provided me with the following info:

    The api provides images in http format. If you must have them in https then you must modify the format as described.

    Example URL provided from our API:
    https://photos.petfinder.com/photos/pets/42993943/1/?bust=1539299405&width=300&-pn.jpg

    Change it to this format:
    https://dl5zpyw5k3jeb.cloudfront.net/photos/pets/42993943/1/?bust=1539299405&width=300&-pn.jpg

    I was able to make edits to the plugin in order to get the photos to show on a site that uses ssl. I will am trying to see if I can do a pr request for the plugin for the change. Please let me know if you would like assistance making this change.

    So, I looked it over and I am not experienced enough to edit the plugin. Any instruction or direction would be appreciated. Thank you for looking into this!

    I would love your help on this! it will adopt out more animals for sure. Please contact me if you are still interested in helping me make the changes to the plugin. Thank you!

    @roxyanne17 sorry for not seeing this until now. How can I get in contact with you

    @alotoftype, I’m having the same issue. Thanks for your help with this! I’m not a programmer, but I’ve got enough knowledge that if you can help me with the code you used, I can add it to plugin and FTP the revised version to my site. If possible, please reply with something like, “Find the line in petfinder-listings.php that says foo-bar{codestuff...} and replace it with foo-bar{new_improved_codestuff}.
    I suspect other users may find this thread and be helped by you as well. Thanks in advance.

    @alotoftype I would also love to know what edits need to be changed to the plugin to make it compatible with SSL. Thank you in advance!

    Hey all,

    I currently have an updated working version of this plugin if you are interested. I displays all Petfinder photos using HTTPS:// now so it doesn’t break your site if you are using https/ssl.

    I don’t have it on GitHub yet, but will shortly and possibly added into the Plugin Repository as well.

    If you are interested in it please shoot me an email at pmcdonnell (@) gmail . com
