 * Hey l736k,
 * Does the error occur when the plugin is disabled and you view the page over HTTPS?
   If so, I believe this is a problem with your SSL Certificate.

 * Hey l736k,
 * I’m guessing this has to be a conflict with another plugin. There’s no way I 
   could figure it out without taking a look myself, though, since you’re getting
   such an unusual error. If you’d like, I can take a look at your installation 
   and see what the issue is. Email the details to mike[at]mvied[dot]com.
 * Thanks,
    Mike

 * could it be the server not compatible with the ssl certificate?

 * Hey l736k,
 * Like I said before, I believe it’s a problem with your SSL Certificate. You’re
   telling me the error only occurs when the plugin is active, which doesn’t make
   any sense since the error indicates an SSL Certificate error. I’m 95% sure if
   you disable the plugin and try to go to [https://yoursite.com/](https://yoursite.com/)
   you’ll get the same error.
 * Thanks,
    Mike
