[wp-hackers] SSL loading unsecured content Headache

[James Tryon]

Hi Nikola, 

I did try the two plugins you listed below with no luck.
I uploaded a copy of the screen shoot to a new location:
http://easilyamusedinc.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Screenshot-2013-10-23-16.28.53.png

It's very weird, no matter what i set the URL's to, something keeps swapping https of http...

I have used SSL and WordPress may times over the years on different server setups and never had this problem before.

Thank you for your time,
James Tryon, Creative Director
