The error message appears above the calendar when logged in though. * [jasonbrookeslund](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jasonbrookeslund/) * (@jasonbrookeslund) * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-cerificate-error/#post-5600783) * Here is the calendar ID: [capeelizabethschools.org_f5ck1puas9sfeqkv70gcap746s@group.calendar.google.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-cerificate-error/capeelizabethschools.org_f5ck1puas9sfeqkv70gcap746s@group.calendar.google.com?output_format=md) * This issue is still happening and follows what Andy wrote above. When you are not logged in the calendars are grayed out. When logged in, you get the error: * SSL: CA certificate set, but certificate verification is disabled Please ensure your calendar ID is correct. We did not have a Google API so I just set it up and did not change anything. * [Dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/daveaspi/) * (@daveaspi) * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-cerificate-error/#post-5600809) * I’m getting the same error message. * Followed all instructions in the plugin, and tried setting the calendar to public to test it wasn’t that but no luck. * API is set up and Calendar API is turned on. * Please could you take a look? * [jasonbrookeslund](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jasonbrookeslund/) * (@jasonbrookeslund) * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-cerificate-error/#post-5600810) * Dave, is your Google account part of a google domain or is it just a [@gmail](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gmail/). com account? Just seeing if this is part of the problem or not. * [Dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/daveaspi/) * (@daveaspi) * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-cerificate-error/#post-5600811) * Hi Jason, * The calendar and the API access are set up under an [@gmail](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gmail/) account. * We’ve had to revert to just embedding the calendar using an `iframe`. Looks awful but works :-/ * [Dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/daveaspi/) * (@daveaspi) * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-cerificate-error/#post-5600812) * [@nickyoung87](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nickyoung87/) * As a temporary fix, setting `'sslverify' => true` in the `wp_remote_get()` function on line 152 of “class-gce-feed.php” seems to fix the issue. * SSL verification was set to false, but an SSL certificate was provided, so it was returning the error: * > SSL: CA certificate set, but certificate verification is disabled * I’m guessing this is due to the Google API feed url being “[https://www.googleapis.com/…”](https://www.googleapis.com/…”); * Hope this helps! * [Dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/daveaspi/) * (@daveaspi) * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-cerificate-error/#post-5600813) * After some further investigation, I think the problem may be server setup, rather than the plugin. * [This Stack Overflow question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26463713/wp-remote-post-returns-an-error-on-ssl-connection) may help you. * I was getting the error locally, but there is no error on our staging server. * Plugin Contributor [Nick Young](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nickyoung87/) * (@nickyoung87) * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-cerificate-error/#post-5600817) * [@dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dave/), * Yeah I think we leave it that way mostly because of this – from the WP Site: * > If you are requesting HTTPS and know that the site is self-signed or is invalided > and are reasonably sure that it can be trusted, then set to false. * [http://codex.wordpress.org/HTTP_API#Other_Arguments](http://codex.wordpress.org/HTTP_API#Other_Arguments) * Since it is a direct call to Google we assume it is generally safe and don’t require the check. * I am glad you were able to get it working, and it probably does just boil down to server configurations like stated in the SO response. * [@jasonbrookeslund](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jasonbrookeslund/), [@andyreifman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andyreifman/), * Did the Stack Overflow link help out in your case at all? * [jasonbrookeslund](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jasonbrookeslund/) * (@jasonbrookeslund) * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-cerificate-error/#post-5600829) * Haven’t quite figured it out but it might be server related in a different way. When I did the sslverify, I got the following message when looking at the calendar“ SSLRead() return error -9806”. When I googled the error, I found [this posting](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26461966/osx-10-10-curl-post-to-https-url-gives-sslread-error) and I’m wondering if I’m in the same boat with my PHP since I’m running this on 10.10 as well. I might have to install a new version of PHP. * [jasonbrookeslund](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jasonbrookeslund/) * (@jasonbrookeslund) * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-cerificate-error/#post-5600830) * Also, I had tried setting the SSLVerifyClient to none but had no success with it. * [jasonbrookeslund](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jasonbrookeslund/) * (@jasonbrookeslund) * [11 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-cerificate-error/#post-5600832) * Finally! That post was correct. The php built into Yosemite has SecureTransport, not openssl and that was causing the error -9806 that I was seeing. Followed the instructions (after miserably failing at getting macports to work) and the server updated the php version to an openssl version. * Plugin Contributor [Nick Young](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nickyoung87/) * (@nickyoung87) * [11 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-cerificate-error/#post-5600833) * [@jasonbrookeslund](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jasonbrookeslund/), * So it sounds like this is all working now for you? * [jasonbrookeslund](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jasonbrookeslund/) * (@jasonbrookeslund) * [11 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-cerificate-error/#post-5600834) * Yes. Just wanted to post for any future person with this problem. * Plugin Contributor [Nick Young](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nickyoung87/) * (@nickyoung87) * [11 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-cerificate-error/#post-5600835) * Awesome! Yes thank you for posting that additional info for anyone else. I will probably refer anyone else with the problem to this post it is so helpful. * Thanks for updating me, I am going to go ahead and mark this as resolved now. * Please open a new thread if you need help with anything else. * Thanks!
