Hi,
We’re in the process of enabling our SSL certificate and would like to know your best practices regarding external http links, scripts.
Do you support this kind of request? Or do I need to manually change http to https for our website? Is there a better way to redirect http requests thru htacccess? How about external resources such as js, css, Google fonts?
Please advise. Thank you.
Hey avwebmaster!
You will want to place all of your resources on your own server. You should not be getting any SSL errors with Google fonts.
I have not used SSL before but I’m guessing if you absolutely have to grab something from an external server then you would use a protocol relative URL, http://www.paulirish.com/2010/the-protocol-relative-url/.
