Hi,

if I have a https in url, css files (also jquery and so on) with flexicontent are not linked via https, so I have insecure items on website. Is there a solution for this?

Hello,

FLEXIcontent is NOT adding http or https

it is calling joomla functions to setup the URLs

so this is a Joomla question and not FLEXIcontent question.

you can search web for this

I know this option, but this is not the question. Normaly our site url is with http without ssl, but for some pages or reasons I need to change to ssl/https. All relative paths are converting correct to https, but a lot of flexicontent files are still linked via http and, of course, "insecure items" for browsers ...

ALSO: this issue is still the same, if I force SSL with joomla configuration!! ;)

Example attached.

Hello,

FLEXIcontent has no hard code use of HTTP or HTTPS in the urls of CSS or JS files

It will use what Joomla is set to use FOR CURRENT PAGE/MENU ITEM, so did you do this ??

and just in case, i tested to confirm this

-- also you do not give enough information

i mean the relative paths will use the current url prefix, but absolute paths that are generated by Joomla will use Joomla settings of global or (takes priority) current menu item,

so, did you set the current menu item to use SSL in the metadata options of the menu item configuration?

we could remove the absolute domain URLs and make them relative,
and this would "fix" your issue, but some 3rd party plugins e.g. those that try to manipulate image paths will not work

so we will get a forum bug report:
my images broken in new FLEXIcontent version vN.N.N, bla, bla, ...

-- about CSS / JS files maybe we could generate relative links,

but for images i am not sure that we will avoid trouble if we use try to use relative paths
(plus HTTP::// in images will not give warnings/problems because they are considered "Passive Content")

Also which FLEXIcontent version do you have ? (also answer above question if you configured current menu item to use SSL)
