 * Hi,
 * We’ve encountered two ‘soft failures’ that are preventing our site from getting
   a padlock and I can’t figure out where to find the code to fix them.
 * 1. An image with an insecure url of “[http://www.serengetiprintgroup.com.au/wp-content/themes/borderland/img/preload_pattern.png&#8221](http://www.serengetiprintgroup.com.au/wp-content/themes/borderland/img/preload_pattern.png&#8221);
   was loaded on line: 450 of [https://www.serengetiprintgroup.com.au/](https://www.serengetiprintgroup.com.au/).
 * 2. An image with an insecure url of “[http://www.serengetiprintgroup.com.au/wp-content/themes/borderland/img/logo.png&#8221](http://www.serengetiprintgroup.com.au/wp-content/themes/borderland/img/logo.png&#8221);
   was loaded on line: 1 of [https://www.serengetiprintgroup.com.au/](https://www.serengetiprintgroup.com.au/).
 * If anyone can help that would be great, Thanks!

 * You can use a search and replace plugin such as “better search and replace” [https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/better-search-replace/](https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/better-search-replace/)
   to try to fix this. It will help you look for and replace instances of links 
   without https in the database.
 * so with the plugin, replace: [http://www.serengetiprintgroup.com.au](http://www.serengetiprintgroup.com.au)
   
   with: [https://www.serengetiprintgroup.com.au](https://www.serengetiprintgroup.com.au)
 * Warning: proceed carefully, check for typos and backup your site database first
   and do a “dry run”

 * Thanks for your help 🙂
 * This plugin didn’t work because I think it only made changes in the database 
   but I think the problem is in the script generated from the template we’re using?
   I found another similar plugin that checked everything and it fixed one of the
   errors.
 * Half way there.
 * The other error is saying
 * “Errors that are reported on line 1 are generally not part of the source code.
   This error may be caused by an external javascript file which is writing to the
   page, however we are unable to reliably detect these scripts in our automated
   test.”
