External CSS and Javascript are [blocked]

[petitshoo]

Hi,

I used the Insert Headers and Footers Plug-In as recommended in a different thread in order to link to external CSS and JS for a slider I’m trying to use. However, when I view the page and look at the developers Javascript console, I’m seeing that the external links are [blocked} and The page was not allowed to run insecure content from “my external link”.

Any idea why the site is blocking these links? I’ve attached a screenshot for you as well.

Thanks,
Jen

Hello There,

Thanks for writing in!

The slick css/js files were blocked because it was loaded insecurely. You should be loading those files using https protocol. How you did you load those files by the way? Do you have any custom code in your child theme? Just modify your settings and replace your http://example.com/.../slick/slick.css with https://example.com/.../slick/slick.css.

We would loved to know if this has work for you. Thank you.
