  I changed themes a few days ago and just noticed my URL is now showing as “Not Secure.” Why? How do I fix it?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I just set up the subdomain windwhistle.piedtype.com and as I understand it, the “Not Secure” should disappear within 72 hours. Is that correct, or is there something else I need to do?

  It looks like SSL is active, but there’s a file that uses http preventing that from working.

  Try updating that image to https instead of http and that should solve the missing padlock.

  It worked! Thank you. I’d have never figured that out.

  Ah, thank you @darciemg! I was going to track that file down after I finished the other modlook threads. I didn’t know about that site. Will bookmark. :)

  Glad you’ve got it now, @windwhistle. Cheers!
