Fixing SSL issues for customers who previously did not use SSL before

If you were not using SSL, but wish to use SSL while using Cloudbric, you may experience your site breaking up, or have a completely different site appear.

Follow the steps below depending on which issue you are facing.

1. When your site breaks up (mixed content)

This happens when your links are broken. Since you are now https, you need to make sure all your links are loaded over https.

For example, if there is a line such as img src="http://yourdomain.com/images/logo_white.png", please change it to img src ="="//yourdomain.com/images/logo_white.png".

If there is a line such as img src="http://anotherdomain.com/images/asdf.jpg", please change it to img src="//anotherdomain.com/images/asdf.jpg".

In short, use the double slash “//” in place of “http://”.

2. When a completely different site appears.

This happens because there are no contents on port 443 (HTTPS), and therefore a default server page is shown. If this happens, please use "Basic SSL" mode in order to apply termination, which means that Cloudbric will direct traffic to port 80 (HTTP).
