something i found by myself is


after installing SSL 


open .htcess file located in public_html of domain

and write 


RewriteEngine OnRewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !443RewriteRule (.*) https://www.yoursite.com/ [R]


then in ow_include 

have to replace http// to https//


now problem is my website loading so slow and get a warning of "show only secure content " 


i contact support they said


it means your website is not configured fully for ssl.. contact you third party software support or your web developer.


if anyone using SSL please help me out  .

What broswer are you testing it in? https does not work fully in Google Chrome. Chrome is blocking the following:

[blocked] The page at https://www.cyprus-social.com/ran insecure content from http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js.

I think the FB connect plugin needs a lot more work, especially when working through a HTTPS site. Also The Synchronize Button in FB connect does not display.

I don't how it is possible that the FB connect code does not run through HTTPS.

Also HTTPS cannot fully work on oxwall site as content from other sites like youtube or
mochiad games (Games Plugin) are pulled from non secure URLS.


The page at https://www.cyprus-social.com/displayed insecure content from http://games.mochiads.com/c/g/zombie-td_v703272/_thumb_100x100.jpg.


The page at https://www.cyprus-social.com/displayed insecure content from http://img.youtube.com/vi/9bZkp7q19f0/default.jpg.


IE and Firefox, don't seem to mind the images from external URLS, but Chrome flags then as insecure.

Ok, so after spending a bit of time searching through some codes, I have found a solution to fix FB connect in HTTPS (oxwall site using SSL)

You will require FTP access to your server and a code editing program, notepad should work aswell.

You need to locate the following 2 files

1. ow_plugins ---> fbconnect ---> bol ---> service.php

2. ow_plugins ---> fbconnect ---> controllers ---> connect.php

Download the files to your PC and open them up in your editing program. You need to replace the existing FB connect url with the following one:

https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js.


The codes to replace can be found:

Service.php - line 93
connect.php - line 256

I hope that helps, the fix has worked for me very well, now need to try and find a solution for images on HTTPS

actually i was thinking in same way .. but was unsure where to do it.. well thanks a lot  i think it will fix at least fb connect .

it will really very helpful 

also yes it removed logo n many images as well ..

in IE it ask do you want to show unsecure content if u allow it all come .. but not in chrome

still logo is missing while using ssl

here is a solution for logo if it is missing while you use https (by roxwall ) 


add your logo direct on your theme.. 

1st rename your logo with logo.png 

 use file manager or ftp and go to yoursite/ow_themes/Facebook/images

and upload logo.png here. enable then DEV mode by yoursite/ow_includes/config.php/

 refresh your website and then disable DEV mode.


then login your website as admin >move to edit theme  > at Logo image option click on reset 

you are done !!
