 * This error is due to assets not being loaded via https. I fixed this on Github

 * I also submitted a Pull Request to the author.

 * Looking at the fixes in github, those appear related to loading the admin via
   https; not necessarily the issue with CURL connection on a https hardened site
   pushing XML feed.
 * Two different issues folks are dealing with
    a) issue with loading the plugin
   via https in admin b) issue with pulling https feeds into FeedWordPress
 * The github fix seems related only to “a” and not “b”
 * We are now running into this issue as of today after major security updates to
   server when trying to pull feeds via https:
 * Diagnostic information
 * HTTP request failure
 * SSL connect error
 * HTTP Transport:
    1.string(12) “WP_HTTP_curl”
