Hello, We enabled auto ssl in cpanel on a website but now iframes does not show some pages anymore. I think i found this has to do with the fact that the browser is blocking content due to the fact that the content inside the iframe is http while the website is being loaded trough https. Is there any way in cpanel or whm to have it still load the content or some other way to fix this? Loads of sites use iframe so why would they not have this problem.. Thanks!

  Hi, Its basically because of encryption you are facing the issue. A website may have referrers link that may be on non-secure manner, so you go to replace all the non-secure contents and links with the secure one..

  Many websites use this and some must be https. Is there a workaround go get this working in a https website? Thanks again!

  Hello, There are lots of discussion under stack overflow (developers discussion forum)regarding the same issue, suggestion is "Page served over https:// with an iframe using an http:// URL: will generate mixed content warnings, thereby introducing a potential security risk, and should be avoided. " possible work arounds are mentioned too.

  Ok thank you. Perhaps a lot asked but can you give me the URL of such workaround?
