Dear Team,

I received this error today in my webmaster :

Non-Secure Collection of Passwords will trigger warnings in Chrome 56 for http://www.xyz.com/

To: owner of http://www.xyz.com/

Beginning in January 2017, Chrome (version 56 and later) will mark pages that collect passwords or credit card details as “Not Secure” unless the pages are served over HTTPS.

The following URLs include input fields for passwords or credit card details that will trigger the new Chrome warning. Review these examples to see where these warnings will appear, so that you can take action to help protect users’ data. The list is not exhaustive.

http://www.xyz.com/some-path/

The new warning is the first stage of a long-term plan to mark all pages served over the non-encrypted HTTP protocol as “Not Secure”.

Now, when I searched this in google I reached at Google Forums : https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/webmasters/2H8lnEEux_g/C04Yf5L7AQAJ

Here I found that most of the people using Newspaper theme encountered with that error. Kindly look at this please thanks.

Also see thread here https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/remove-theme-login-modal/

If you don’t use logins you can edit this file /wp-content/themes/Newspaper/parts/header/td-login-modal.php the same as user James has done on the google forums.

Hopefully a permanent fix is done next week that won’t need theme mods after each update.
