Website Shows Mixed Contents Warning (http & https)

Nowadays, it is recommended for users to enable SSL on their websites.
However, on some cases, the websites are not shown as protected even though SSL certificates are successfully installed and forced on their sites.
Users may also receive "Mixed content occurs" warning when visiting the site.

This is due to some of the website components such as images are still pointed to non-secured (http) URL instead of secured (https) URL.
The URL may be encoded in the web scripts or database, therefore it is important to check and ensure that all the links have been updated to secured URLs.
Then only the websites will be able to appear with green padlock icon on the address bar on the web browser.
