How to use the free mixed content checker

Scan any HTTPS page for insecure http:// resources (images, scripts, iframes) that break the padlock.

Quick answer

Enter your HTTPS page URL at /tools/mixed-content-checker. It renders the page, catches every http:// request, and shows the exact file and line to fix.

FAQ

Why does the tool show more resources than my dev tools?

It follows lazy-loaded assets and iframe-embedded scripts that Chrome hides by default.

Will fixing mixed content improve SEO?

Yes — Chrome downgrades mixed HTTPS pages, and Search Console reports them as security issues.
