<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n- Modify Your .htaccess File<\/strong> (Advanced)
\nNote:<\/strong> Avoid this method if your site uses symlinks, which could cause issues.
\nIf the above methods don\u2019t fully resolve the problem, you can force HTTPS for all requests:<\/p>\n- \n
- Access your website\u2019s root directory (usually public_html<\/strong>).<\/li>\n
- Open or create the .htaccess<\/strong> file.<\/li>\n
- Add the following line of code:\n
Header always set Content-Security-Policy: upgrade-insecure-requests<\/pre>\n<\/li>\n
- Save<\/strong> the file and reload your website.
\nThis instructs browsers to upgrade all HTTP requests to HTTPS automatically.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nBy following the above-outlined steps, you should be able to eliminate mixed content warnings and ensure your WordPress site is fully secure under HTTPS.<\/p>\n
