HTTPS Mixed Content Locator: Chrome Extension for HTTPS Migration

'HTTPS Mixed Content Locator' is a helpful tool designed for Chrome users to ease the process of migrating a site from HTTP to HTTPS. It identifies and highlights both active and passive mixed content types, including img, audio, video, iframe, script, object, and link. Upon locating the mixed content, users can visually find the insecure elements and copy their URLs. After installing the extension, a restart of Chrome is needed for it to function correctly.

User reviews

Tried my best to get the extension to work on multiple sites where I know (based on independent tests) "mixed content" is present but the extension failed to indicate this for all tests (add-on responded with "No mixed content detected"). It would be nice to get the extension to work in as much as it's a nice concept at least. And it would be nice for the dev to respond with any ideas as to why this might be the case for users who report this same issue. Absent the Dev providing any feedback - can anyone (of the 4,000 users) who has reported that at least in-part the add-on works, please post the website that does work (to confirm this report). Attempting to use the www.mixedcontentexamples.com to test the add-on I get this message to users: Error 1016 Ray ID: 8667b771dd20cfe1 • 2024-03-18 19:44:18 UTC Origin DNS error Along with an additional message to the "owner of this (test) website" to the effect: "If you are the owner of this website: Check your DNS settings. If you are using a CNAME origin record, make sure it is valid and resolvable." (including a link for "Additional troubleshooting information here") that the extensions dev can check-out further.

Does work sometimes, but is often unable to detect it when Chrome auto upgrades or blocks mixed content. Open sourcing it so it can be updated would be great.
