    I’ve updated the connections plugin and slim pro template and my images are still broken when loading https. They are fine in http. I’ve tried Chrome, Firefox and Edge. Funny thing https images in Edge are fine. I looked in the db and the URL to the image file is a relative path with out any reference to the http://domain.

    I’ve searched support and documentation and could not find a solution. It seems that it should just work.

    @ Heidi

    Yes, it should “just work“. For some reason the core WordPress function site_url() does not seem to be returning the site URL with the https protocol. It is returning the standard http protocol. So, when viewing the page with https any asset called with http will be blocked by most browsers. This is not only affecting Connections, but several plugins on your site. Take a look at you page with https and the hit CTRL+U and then do a search for http://. There are quite a few assets being blocked from loading.

    Perhaps you can force the site to default to https to resolve the issue.

    Hope this helps, let me know.
