This page is insecure (broken HTTPS) on my Tumblr Blog - css

Immature CSS coder here, basically only know how to deal with CSS on tumblr blogs. A novel problem, when I finished editing this blog, it returns that this page is insecure (broken HTTPS), and fails to load up any of the scripts I can, including pop up links. These pop ups don't redirect to any other site than the blog itself, so the fact it's failing to show the popups is problematic.
I looked into it and this was perhaps the error it is returning that makes it insecure:
global.build.js?_v=06d02b5…:25 GET https://fc.yahoo.com/sdarla/php/client.php?f=1197719150 net::ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT
But I have no way to access this site or anything related, and not sure how I am able to fix this through it.
If it helps, here's the code for the blog: http://pastebin.com/8wz9XWKB

Go into your blog settings and ensure this is disabled.
Tumblr has recently made it so that all new blogs automatically have this option enabled, which is rather silly considering even they say:
"Try it, and if it makes your Tumblr look funny, just come back and
disable it."

My website is showing an error related to googlecm.hit.gemius.pl in console

I have a WordPress website, and I use Adsense. However, for a couple of days, I have noticed these errors in the console, and I don't know what they mean.
All of them are related to this URL: https://googlecm.hit.gemius.pl
The errors are saying:
Failed to load resource: net::ERR_ADDRESS_INVALID
GET googlecm.hit.gemius.pl/googleredir?rid=... net::ERR_ADDRESS_INVALID
I don't know what it is, please clarify this to me.
I was able to figure this out. It was not the plugin, but rather an Ad Network on Google Adsense. All I had to do was go into the Google Adsense >> Blocking Controls >> Content >> Ad Networks. Then type in Gemius and disable all ads from their network. The problem goes away and you get to work with Adsense again.
I don't have the best answer, but ... I noticed my site is doing this too. It's a pretty simple site, with just a few tools some people use. If I disable Google's ads, the error goes away. If I re-enable them, they come back. I double checked ad content, and they're all legitimate.
The requests aren't being generated by my pages. They are only generated by Google's ads.
My site is hand coded, not WP or another CMS, so it can't be a hack or anything. I literally read every line of code related to that page while trying to diagnose it. It wasn't hard, because there aren't many lines of code. :)
So, to make the error go away, you'll need to turn off Google's ads for a while. It really isn't necessary though.
The good news is, that error means nothing was sent to the gemius page. It is simply unreachable right now, for whatever reason. I guess Google will fix it eventually. I don't care enough to open a trouble ticket with them. I'm just considering it a curiosity and annoyance on my otherwise error free pages.

I believe this is related to the plugin Google Ad Inserter. Took me a while to figure out and I'm still trying to clean it up. After removing the plugin a lot of the redirect errors went away and Google was able to index my URL. After going into Chrome developer though I noticed that there was still some redirect errors happening on some resources left behind by Ad Inserter. Once I figure out how to get rid of them I'll post an update. Had a huge impact on my blog though. Almost lost 30% of my page views for the past couple days...

Wordpress Site Is Blank - Only Links Showing For Homepage

Just an FYI, I'm an amateur blogger who doesn't know much about coding.
I've been facing a problem recently and I don't know what to do.
My website homepage shows up blank, with just links (http://shlokamariwala.com/)
I've tried to check for any errors in my backend but all seems to be working fine!
I've also uninstalled all plugins to check, but that didn't make a difference.
Please let me know how to go about this! I'm happy to provide any specific additional information needed. Also, since I'm not very well versed in coding, I apologise for my use of lay-man terms in advance!
If I get to your website, most content is not coming from your domain, but is loaded from https://secureservercdn.net/50.62.198.97/qxw.3db.myftpupload.com/.
Also your own site is not using SSL (https), but insecure http.
Many browsers and most anti spamer browser plugins like privacy badger or uBlock Origin will refuse to load this.
Another point may be that you are using canvas data, but also this is blocked by default in modern browsers.
Maybe take a look in the wordpress server site settings and check your servername.

wordpress menu includes different domain randomly

I'm using Wordpress 4.9.1–en_GB, and have a live site which has been up and live for some months without issue.
48 hours ago it suddenly (or rather I noticed suddenly) started displaying some pages as unformatted (no css) lists of links and text. The links on those pages were to another domain which directed to my site, but which has never been part of my site, and for which there is no direction within the site.
Loading and saving that one page fixed it on that page, and another page which was exhibiting the issue.
I redirected the external domain so that it would not point to my website.
Today it has exhibited the same behaviour, but with a subdomain which points to my site, but which again is not in use. Again saving the page without making any edits 'fixed' the behaviour.
I'm not asking for a fix - but whether anyone has ever experienced a similar problem, or has a pointer towards where to look, and will report back what I find, in the hope it helps someone else if it ever occurs to them.
I didn't originally build the site - it has a load of plugins, not all active and disabling and removing plugins is definitely an option - but not a great one, since the problem is not predictable, so I have no firm way of knowing whether my actions have fixed the issue, and in the meantime my commercial site will not be functioning as desired (which I appreciate is occasionally the case anyway it would seem).
It sits in Amazon EC2.
sorry for the lack of precision, but I am truly stumped.
this sounds like your website may have been breached. to address the conflict of web pages not formatting is usually the ssl not being installed correctly on the server. but if you have a lot of plugins installed it's a huge security issue and the plugins may be causing the domain issue
the plugins may be causing a conflict within each other I would recommend removing the plugins that generally don't get used.
deactivate the plugins in use and reactivate them.
use word fence security plugin to run to a scan on your website.
when I had this problem it was because the ssl was not installed on my server correctly if not that, a breach may be the cause. I hope this helps.
If the issue started within that time frame as stated that makes me more confident that this is an ssl issue. Sometimes an ssl doesn’t install correctly on a server this can cause a conflict with how the layout in css and HTML is affected. this is common in some cases, while it’s happening with the current theme your using, some WordPress themes can bypass the ssl error, I would recommend getting a new ssl from let’s encrypt and removing the one that was auto renewed through let’s encrypt. This could simply fix the problem. If not feel free to share your findings on the issue.

Site only refreshes when adding www. to URL

First time posting so please bear with me.
I'm the unofficial web guy at the company I work for and I helped create our basic static HTML site.
Any work that I do to the site offline and then FTP shows up instantly on my machine. I rarely, if ever, need to clear the cache for changes to show up. However, within the company I work for, nearly half of the users never see the updates. Some do, some don't.
On the machines that don't I've cleared the cache in browser and through the internet control panel settings. Nothing. Still shows the stale content. The only thing that works - and I've seen this both in Chrome and IE is that when I add www in front of the URL is then shows the refreshed site. No big deal, right? Well for users who type in mysite.com without the in front will not see the updates. People who have favorited it like that, will not see the updates.
Now, on to what I've tried to fix it. After much research many people have steered me away from meta tag refresh so I haven't tried that, however, with the help of the IT guy we have, from what we can tell, set the HTTP header of the site to always refresh. This did not do anything for us.
I've tried changing image names in the HTML page when updating a photo and that didn't work either.
I haven't been able to find a .htaccess file so can I create one? If we (IT guy and I) changed the HTTP Header setting to always refresh but there is not .htaccess file will there be no change?
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I have searched on here for the answer and the two most suggested changes are HTTP Header and Meta refresh. HTTP header didn't help and it seems the Meta tag route is bad form.
This is a DNS issue. You need to ask the provider of your web services to add an A or a CNAME record for the domain's root.
If you don't understand the above, just call the provider of your web presence (the company that hosts your web server) and tell them you want yourdomain.com and www.yourdomain.com to go to the same place.

Wordpress preview issue with facebook

I just want to start of by saying that I'm a complete noob when it comes to programing, and don't have a lot of experience with HTML or CSS. I know this place is a bit more advanced and geared mainly for programmers and developers, but the only reason I come here is because I couldn't find an answer in any of the other forums. I don't know if I can solve my problem by editing the CSS file in wordpress, but I'm hoping that some of you can chime in and let me know. The problem I have in a nutshell is that when I post a link of my blog to facebook, facebook doesn't generate the correct data or show any image preview. Here's the post I submitted at the wordpress forum:
I just got a new website, and setup a new wordpress blog on their server. It took a while, but everything is up and running for the most part. I am however, having a really hard time getting any of my post preview to show up when linking to facebook. My website is http://www.limonphotography.com/blog. When I run the same link through facebook's debugger, I get the following error sometimes:
Could Not Follow Redirect Path: Using data from .http://www.limonphotography.com/blog/ because there was an error following the redirect path.
Circular Redirect Path: Circular redirect path detected (see 'Redirect Path' section for details).
Could Not Follow Redirect: URL requested a HTTP redirect, but it could not be followed.
My wordpress URL is :http://limonphotography.com/blog but I made the site URL pointing to :http://www.limonphotography.com/blog since it's easier. Original blog is hosted with the site I have my hosting with, so the original WordPress is at http://mukul12031.c4.cmdwebsites.com/blog. Can anyone tell me why I am getting these errors, or why the preview is not showing up?
Again, I apologize if this is too simple of a questions, but I just can't figure it out on my own. If anyone can help me, I would be very grateful. Thanks a lot.
My advice would be to try appending a trailing slash to your og:url tag (example: "http://mysite.com/"). Sounds stupid, I know, but it's worked for some
Another thread on this issue has yielded the following information, courtesy of Lizzbizz on this Wordpress Support thread:
"From what I can tell, this turned out to be a problem with GoDaddy
hosting services. They were applying a 302 Redirect Filter to the
server that was hosting my domain and it caused the problems. After I
emailed them a few times they finally fixed it. Try googling "GoDaddy
302 Redirect Problem" and you will see lots of other posts!
If you are not getting the 302 problem, but just have trouble getting
the image or description to appear when you share a link on Facebook,
you can use one of the WP plugins for Open Graph data like Simple
Facebook Connect or Facebook Open Graph Meta in WordPress and that
should fix it!"
