How To Configure DMS For SSL Site

I am running Wordpress 4.1 on a site hosted on DreamHost. I have an SSL certificate and have set the site up for SSL. I want to require SSL for logins and admin operations, but I want others interact with the web site via regular HTTP. I am using the Wordpress HTTPS module, so I have both "Force SSL Administration" and "Force SSL Exclusively" checked so that only admin access is forced to go through SSL. Unfortunately, these settings also force the front-end DMS interaction to be non-SSL, so that I can't update the web site unless I uncheck "Force SSL Exclusively".

 

So far I haven't found a lot of information on the site about how to use SSL. What is the officially recommended way to use Pagelines DMS2 on an SSL site?

We simply use this in our config file

define( 'FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', true );

We dont use any SSL plugins.

      How can I get support on pagelines DMS? The product isn't that old and my skeleton themes aren't working and I can't get support in the same way?

      I have a number of legacy websites that are running on the above version of Pagelines DMS, where the template has stopped working. I am using a skeleton theme to all of them. What do I need to do to rectify this.

      [Solved] Share bar Stumble Upon will not load HTTPS
      By marshallsolutions
      For the site https://marshallsirishpub.com I am running
      Wordpress 4.9.4
      Pagelines base theme 1.0.2
      Pagelines Framework 2.5.0
      The share bar specifically Stumble Upon is causing an error when checking SSL for HTTPS at whynopadlock.com.  Here is the errors shown:
      A file with an insecure url of "http://cdn.stumble-upon.com/js/badge_su.js?v=20120613" was loaded on line: 1 of https://www.stumbleupon.com/badge/embed/2/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmarshallsirishpub.com%2F.
      A file with an insecure url of "http://cdn.stumble-upon.com/css/badges_su.css?v=20120613" was loaded on line: 1 of https://www.stumbleupon.com/badge/embed/2/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmarshallsirishpub.com%2F.

      Errors that are reported on line 1 are generally not part of the source code. This error may be caused by an external javascript file which is writing to the page, however we are unable to reliably detect these scripts in our automated test.
      Please contact us using the "Need Help?" link below if you need assistance with resolving this error.
      I contacted support at Really Simple SSL which is the plugin we use to convert the site to HTTPS via SSL.  They said I should contact you guys.  Here is what their support had to say via email:
      the sharing bar seems to load the Stumbleupon script over http:// despite being trying to redirect it to https://. The cdn.stumbleupon doesn't seem to have an SSL certificate and therefore refuses to load over https://. I'd suggest to contact the developer of the sharing plugin, the Stumbleupon button can de designed in another way, without it trying to load a script over http://.
      So it seems I need to modify some file in pagelines to make the stumble upon portion of the share bar to read https and not http.  If that's not possible then I need to remove stumble upon from the share bar.
      Thanks.
