Hi
I am not allowed to create trainings yet but I want to share this small piece of knowledge. I discovered that my domain dmgartphoto.com suddenly was unsecure.
This surpriced me somewhat since I had only added a few pages and a couple of post - as far as I remembered that is. When looking closer at the triangle message I discovered that it complained about unsecure images. Looking further into it, I concluded that the problem must be related to images with url:s like http:// (and not https:// as it should be).

Looking into the page source I found two images having http://.. urls and they belonged to my affiliate link for Thomann. When receiving my affiliate link from Thomann they hadn't to set it to https and I didn't recognice it while adding the link to my page. 
Editing the links to https fixed the problem. So you shouldnt always trust copy paste even if the source is trusted, check what you actually insert before saving.
/Cheers
