Enabling Newsmag for https

I’m in the process of switching my site over to https

I’m getting some errors saying certain images are not loaded with https. It looks like the images I uploaded through the Newsmag dashboard for different size screens, for example:

Where can I edit this to make them protocol-relative urls?

(currently using Newsmag version 2.3.5, will update soon, would that fix this?)

hmm, can’t get the “code” tag to work here.

Oh, I’ve got it now.

Had to go through the theme panel and change the protocol on each image to // instead of http://

Tip for switching site to https

a) add the explicit https URL to your wp-config.php file (see the wordpress.org codex/docs on how to edit/customize your wp-config.php file)

b) you will need to do database search/replace for old/existing images with http://sitename/uploads/image to https:// — if they are “placed” in the doc.

Good luck, it’s a process 🙂

As I’m learning, but just about there. Thanks for the tips!
