Enabling mixed content in your browser

Last update: Wed Oct 11 2023 00:00:00 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time)

Mixed content occurs if the initial request is secure over HTTPS, but HTTPS and HTTP content is loaded to display the web page. HTTPS content is secure. HTTP content is insecure.

Modern browsers might block the display of a page or display warning messages if secure content is mixed with insecure content.

A warning message displays if the Visual Experience Composer (VEC) in 蜜豆视频 Target tries to open a page containing mixed content. This message informs you how to disable blocking in your browser. Disabling blocking lets you open an HTTP site or a site that has mixed content (HTTPS and HTTP).

Mixed content warning

Previously, when mixed content was not allowed, you could still perform some actions in Step 1 of the three-step guided workflow when creating activities. Target now blocks actions in Step 1. When this message displays, you must enable mixed content before continuing creating the activity.

Your browser鈥檚 security settings might block mixed content or insecure (HTTP) content being loaded into a secure (HTTPS) page or frame (such as the VEC). If you don鈥檛 want to disable your browser鈥檚 security settings, you must have an HTTPS website.

If your website is running on an insecure (HTTP) domain, you are required to allow the VEC to load active mixed content.

IMPORTANT
Allowing mixed content affects the VEC only and not your live website.

For more information, see on the Mozilla Developer Network (MDN) website.
