[Plugin: WordPress HTTPS] Problem with images

Well, that makes sense.

Right now, the plugin processes elements on the front-end and the admin panel. I’m sure it’s processing the post code and modifying it as well. I’ll have to make it so that when processing the back-end, it only fixes stylesheets and scripts, and just leaves images and such alone. That should take care of it.

If you’re feeling daring, you can modify the plugin and give it a shot.

Replace line 176 in wordpress-https.php:

preg_match_all('/\<(script|link|img|input|form|embed|param)[^>]+((http|https):\/\/[\/-\w\.#]+)[^>]+>/im', $buffer, $matches);

With this:

if (is_admin()) {
 preg_match_all('/\<(script|link)[^>]+((http|https):\/\/[\/-\w\.#]+)[^>]+>/im', $buffer, $matches);
} else {
 preg_match_all('/\<(script|link|img|input|form|embed|param)[^>]+((http|https):\/\/[\/-\w\.#]+)[^>]+>/im', $buffer, $matches);
}

That should do it. If you try it, let me know if it works. When I have more time, I’ll test it myself and if it works, I’ll get it into the next update.

I updated the source code and this does appear to work, thank you.

That didn’t fix it for me, even with “Internal HTTPS Elements” ticked off
Also, when viewing my media library, all the links start with https.

Is it because the links are hardcoded in the DB???

I’ve fixed all the guids in the database, but it didn’t change anything…

And it’s not just the image link, but also the link URL

Hey Olivier,

I’ve tried to reproduce your problem, but I can not. If you’d like, I can take a look at your website. You can email me directly at mike[at]mvied[dot]com.

Thanks,
Mike

Did this fix make it into a release? I have been getting broken links since disabling SSL due to a required cert change. I was curious how some pictures were inserted as HTTPS until I saw this post that it was related to the plugin. It would be nice to know if this is now fixed so picture inserts will be HTTP while the inspect internal elements remains checked.

Hey ccolotti,

As far as I know this is fixed.
