I’m interested to hear about this too…
Add the following to functions.php in your theme 😉
// Force SSL on form captcha
define('WPCF7_CAPTCHA_TMP_URL','https://www.yourwebsite.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/wpcf7_captcha');

great thanks Ox, I’ll get that added 🙂
I just tried to implement this and it still loads on http, I’ve cleared cache, restarted browser etc and still no joy.
Can you confirm which plugin you’re using to implement HTTPS?
Cheers

Well I have my site urls set as https and also have wordpress https running, maybe I have a setting wrong in there as some pages are definitely not being forced into https.
I always assumed if you had site urls fixed as https that would force all pages to https on its own?
Good to hear that you’re using the WordPress HTTPS plugin.
The problem may lie in you forcing SSL on every page. Within the plugin settings it says:
Any page that is not secured via Force SSL or URL Filters will be redirected to HTTP.
Try and un-tick this option and specify the form page in “URL filters” i.e. /contact.
See if that does the trick.

Hi Ox,
sorry for delay, I just checked and that setting is already unchecked. I will try and specify the page as you suggest.
Thanks for the help
No worries buddy. If that doesn’t work, I’m not sure what else you can do.
Best of luck and have a good weekend!

I was able to get this working by implementing the fix described in this post.
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp_content_url-based-defines-do-not-work-over-ssl-https
Essentially, I edited wp-includes/default-constants.php and changed the wp_plugin_directory_constants function as follows:
function wp_plugin_directory_constants( ) {
/**
if ( !defined('WP_CONTENT_URL') )
define( 'WP_CONTENT_URL', get_option('siteurl') . '/wp-content'); // full url - WP_CONTENT_DIR is defined further up
**/
if ( !defined('WP_CONTENT_URL') )
define( 'WP_CONTENT_URL', site_url( 'wp-content') ); // full url - WP_CONTENT_DIR is define with https or http per connection
Hopefully this will be helpful to others.
