Can't embed anything with Chrome anymore


Recommended Posts

I don't know why, but in Chrome, I can't embed anything into a post on here, now; images, videos, tweets, Facebook posts, etc. The "Insert image from URL" option in the "Insert other media" drop-down menu doesn't work, either. I just tried it in Edge, and it works perfectly fine there; I've cleared the cache and deleted all Neowin cookies in Chrome, too, with no luck, so this one's a mystery to me. I currently have the latest version of Chrome: 46.0.2490.71 m (64-bit).

What addons are you running? What are you blocking or disabled? Just made a post here and was able to add an image without any issues

I've got Neowin whitelisted in uBlock, as well as Adblock Plus; I did try both of them out and they acted the same.

...aaaand I think I just discovered which one is the culprit: HTTPS Everywhere; I just disabled it, reloaded the page in regular HTTP and it's working again. Thank you, Woobox. :pinch: I only grabbed that extension because contests hosted through Woobox weren't loading in Chrome unless the page was HTTPS.

there are some problems with HTTPs and Chrome on neowin/wordpress websites. Notice in the address bar with HTTPS enabled, you'll get a shield icon stating there are unsafe scripts. If you run those everything should be normal again, but like you when I was on chrome I disabled HTTPs everywhere for neowin and a lot of my issues went away. Now I am on FF and HTTPS everywhere works fine with neowin and wordpress.
