I am getting security warnings on my https pages.

 

IE says:

Security Warning

This webpage contains content that will not be delivered using a secure https connection, which

could compromise the security of the entire webpage.

 

Chrome and Firefox say similar things

 

my site is

http://www.homeschool-shelf.com

I am running v 1.4.3

 

Please go to a check out page that has https and help me figure out what the problem is....

If the area of ​​security of HTTPS web site including any content such as images, javascript or whatever via standard HTTP, visitors can also receive a security warning to appear saying that the page is secure and insecure content.

For some of your sites visitors, this statement rather vague and worrying could make decide to leave their verification procedure and cost you a sale.

When receiving this kind of warnings it means that your web site is linking non secure content in secure areas.

To put it in a simple way. Most of the times this is being caused because your theme is not using relative links such us:

 

/css/something.css

but

 

http://myshop.com/css/something.css

 

Looking at the page source of an "https" should not reveal any "http://" includes. You can use view page source from your browsers tools.

how do I get the theme to use relative links as this is the problem that I am having

 

You have to edit the corresponding css and tpl files and change the links to relative. Of course if you bought a template from someone it is their job to fix those issues for you.
