  I cannot edit my blog or add content. Although, I can go between its pages and see the stats. The error displayed is the messed SSL. So, what can I do about it?

  Thanks,
  Yelena

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

  Please post a screenshot. You can use http://snag.gy/ to share screenshots. Or you can use the WordPress.com guide I linked to and upload it to your Media Library, and return to this thread to provide the file name so Staff can examine it. I’ll tag this thread for a Staff follow-up. Please subscribe to the thread so you are notified when they respond and please be patient while waiting.

  Hello and thank you! Sorry, cannot upload anything to my media library. I’ve taken the screenshots, but how to send them? The error message I get (when trying to open wordpress.com too) says,
  “Failed to connect to the authentic wordpress.com site. An intrusion into the safe connection to wordpress.com site is registered. This site usually SSL-encrypts user data. When Chrome attempted to connect wordpress.com this time, the registration data appeared false. The certificate, received in the course of connecting, is wrongly formatted, and Chrome cannot use it to secure your data.
  Error type: Malformed certificate.
  Issued to: wordpress.com.
  Issued by: Go Daddy Secure Certificate Authority – G2.
  … and open key codes.”

  No, no, it’s that very blog. The link is correct. I haven’t been posting anything for a long time, been only adding pictures.

  Is there a difference between what you see when you try to use:

  http://wetranslateyou.wordpress.com/

  or

  https://wetranslateyou.wordpress.com/

  What happens when you try to go to this URL:

  https://wetranslateyou.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  Hello!
  Clicking the link https://wetranslateyou.wordpress.com/ doesn’t open the site. It displays the same error, as before. So does https://wetranslateyou.wordpress.com/wp-admin/. The first link opens the site, but I still cannot edit it.

  What happens when you use a different browser? Same errors?

  How odd! I tried editing it in Mozilla Firefox, and all went out smoothly. Does that mean, I cannot use Chrome to edit my blog anymore?..

  No, I use chrome frequently. What it does mean is that there is probably a setting somewhere in Chrome that is causing the issue.

  Thank you. I’ll try to revise the settings and find the issue.
