SSL Insecure Content Fixer v2.4.0 has just been released. This release fixes some admin problems with Capture mode, and adds a filter hook for disabling Capture mode.

When I first wrote this plugin, it only ran fixes on the front end, never on the WordPress admin. I later had to enable fixes on the admin too, because some plugins were loading scripts and stylesheets badly in the admin. When I later added Capture mode, I didn’t consider what it might do to the admin. It turns out that it breaks some things quite badly: large export files, for example, and some visual page builder tools. So with this release, Capture mode doesn’t run on admin pages any more.

In case someone runs into a problem with a particular page or script and needs to disable Capture mode, I’ve added a filter: ssl_insecure_content_disable_capture. Return false for that filter and Capture mode will be disabled.

I released this last night, but there has been a slow down of the wordpress.org plugin directory so the release has only started working in the last hour or so. If you tried to update and it failed, please try again now.

You can update to the latest version from your WordPress plugin admin page. Here’s the full changelog for SSL Insecure Content Fixer.
