Fix mixed content on your blogger

Fix mixed content on your blog

If you turn on HTTPS for your blog, you may have to change your blog content to make sure it works with HTTPS.

Mixed Content errors occur when a webpage downloads its initial HTML content securely over HTTPS, but then loads the follow-up content (such as  images, videos, stylesheets, scripts) over insecure HTTP. These browser errors will degrade both HTTPS security and the user experience of your blog.

Mixed content can be caused by HTML markup or JavaScript content in:

On your browser, visit your blog using HTTPS.

At the top of your browser, click View > Developer > JavaScript Console.

Look for mixed content errors:

“Mixed Content: The page at 'https://<your-blog>.blogspot.com/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure script 'http://<some-url>/script.js'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.”

“Mixed Content: The page at 'https://<your-blog>.blogspot.com/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure image 'http://<some-url>/image.jpg'. This content should also be served over HTTPS.”

Make a list of the blog address you are viewing, and any insecure URLs listed in the error messages.

(optional) Re-add gadgets one at a time to your blog. Repeat steps 2–5, and note any new mixed content errors.

Make sure to visit each page of your blog separately. Errors will show only for the page being viewed, not the blog as a whole. Make note of the errors you see, as well as whether the same problem URLs appear in errors for multiple blog pages.
