To keep costs down for the charity BOGA, I am in the process of transferring to Hostinger who provide a free SSL cert.
I'm testing using donjohnson24.uk in place of boga.co.uk and all except two items are working OK
Near the bottom of the home page there are two HTML items - under Music and Mechanical Music Radio.
These work fine on boga.co.uk and when I preview, but not on the test at https://www.donjohnson24.uk
It seems that the HTML functions do not like accessing non secure links, and do not work.
The link added to the Mechanical Music Radio text above the HTML box DOES work OK - as do other links to non secure sites.
If I remove the SSL cert from donjohnson24.uk, and test at http://www.donjohnson24.ukthe MMR insert appears OK.
I changed the Music function to use a local mp3 file and that works OK, and I can just use the MMR link in the text instead of the insert, but why does the call to a non secure address cause the MMR insert to not work on https?
Would other functions be affected?

Re: HTML and SSL
Note that this is not directly related to WWB.
This is just how browsers work, non-secure items on the page may be blocked for security reasons.
So, you will need to make sure all links and embedded content uses https instead of http.
WWB uses https for most external links.

Re: HTML and SSL
Thanks for the explanation.
Luckily it seems only to apply to embedded content, or one would not be able to use normal links to non secure sites - still the majority?
