Using Weather Underground Plugin via HTTPS

  • I’ve been using Weather Underground plugin for nearly 4 years now and really like it. I’m about to have an SSL certificate installed but I’ve noticed the forecast is called using http. Can I simply change this to https or do I need to do something else or maybe the plugin won’t work anymore?

    Can anyone advise me please?

    Thank you!

    Same question here. I have several clients (resorts) using Weather Underground on their sites (to reflect local weather stations), and it’s all HTTP only, which causes modern browsers to throw warnings when the containing page is HTTPS.

    Editing the WU code to reference the same assets via https doesn’t work (those assets are missing on the WU secure server, apparently).

    Within months, Google is threatening to start displaying harsh warnings in Chrome on pages with mixed (secure/insecure) content, so if WU doesn’t get its act together soon, I’m going to move these clients to another weather service.

    In class-request.php I changed the api URL to https and everything started working again. Would be nice if this was a permanent change moving forward.
