  I tried to access my site and I get an error message that it is blocked because there is no valid security certificate. This has never happened. What do I need to do to fix this?

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

  Hi there,

  Is this the site you are referring to http://www.bikingwithmike.com?

  But I did visit your above site and it’s opening fine for me.

  If you are facing problem in some other site please share the site URL.

  Thanks!!

  Yes, that is the site. But when I try to access it from within my WordPress account to add to or edit content, it says its blocked due to an invalid security certificate? Thanks Sent from Mail for Windows 10

  Hi there,

  You’re getting this error because your site isn’t using a security certificate (SSL certificate). You can bypass that and access your site by removing the “s” from the “https” in front of your site’s address (http://www.bikingwithmike.com/).

  However, I highly recommend installing a security certificate. The easier way is to ask your hosting provider (Bluehost).
