I went to edit a post of mine that contains images I've previously uploaded to GZ. Upon hitting Update, it gave me this error: "Error: Your post was not accepted because you are using unsecure images. Please use HTTPS sources only or upload to Geekzone."

I think the error message is pretty clear. If the images are on Geekzone, hit the <> button in the editor and change http to https. This will take care of it (although when we moved to HTTPS I updated the every occurrence of HTTP to HTTPS in our database - although something might've been left behind).

 

Send me a PM with the link so I can check.

I did as you suggested and all the images already point to HTTPS URLs.

 

The post I wanted to edit is this one

 

Many thanks.

Thanks, I see the problem - it is not the Geekzone images, but the Tinymce image. I will search/update the database for these images, don't update the post yet.

You should be able to update that now. I have replaced all 3647 occurrences of http://tinymce.cachefly.net with https://tinymce.cachefly.net.

Thanks, it worked. I wondered if it might have been an issue to do with images uploaded prior to GZ going fully https.

We moved to full https in May 2017 - it took only almost two years for this one to appear...

I reckon I need me a badge for locating that site issue for you.
