    Don't know what is causing all the broken links lately. I admin on 4 different websites and they were changed over to SSL a few days ago. This evening I've noticed a load of broken link errors on 3 of them. Wonder would it be the recent changes?

    Errors thrown up:

    Unknown error

    404 not found

    403 forbidden

    Connection failed

    521 Unknown error

    Server not found

    504 gateway timeout

    Timeout

    Use your browsers dev tools to see what's not loading. Could be something like trying to load 3rd party JS/images from sources that don't have ssl assets available.

    You should also ensure that there's a 301 redirect from the old URL to the new secure URL.
