   I had accidentally set up the following site:

   http://www.deals-r-us.com/

   with an SSL URL (shared SSL). I then switched it to a non SSL URL in the admin section of WordPress and I'm still getting security certificate errors. What gives?

   What section of the code can I hack to get rid of this annoying error. I'm losing customers as a result of the shared ssl getting forced on the images.

   Disregard. Re-installed base WordPress code and the problem was fixed. It was a wordpress issue and not a template issue.

   False Alarm. The issue is still happening for whatever reason. The header image of this theme is forcing an https:// session for whatever reason.

   <?php header_image(); ?>

   This is the culprit in the theme that's forcing the header image to force an https session. Don't have the time to look further into this. I just wanted to bring this to your attention.

   This is still 'broken'...

   http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/14835

   BTW - the 'fix' is probably not a fix.

   A better solution might be if the URI did NOT include http:// OR https://, i.e. just use a relative URI from '/'...

   If http(s) is 'hard coded' the there is always potential for a problem..

   BTW - workarounds:
   1) don't use SSL (https)
   2) copy image of choice on top of original image...
