Running your fan pages from WorPress? You probably need this plugin BEFORE October 1st

Hey guys,
I'm still pretty new to the Warrior Forums, but I thought I'd try and give back a little - I've learned quite a bit from you guys.

If you don't know already, Facebook's requiring that all fan pages be secured by October 1st or they'll be unviewable. I can't say I agree with this requirement, but hey, it's Facebook's house and we have to follow their rules.

If you're running your fan page from WordPress, whether it's through a custom theme, plugin, whatever, then you'll like this plugin I wrote, WordPress HTTPS Test. Just install, activate and visit your fan page through Facebook's secure side. https.

It'll analyze your page and show you a list of all the scripts, css files and other assets that aren't secured and even highlight them on the page.You can find it here:

If you're freaking out right about now because you don't know what SSL is or how to get your site secured, it's REALLY no big deal. I wrote a pretty extensive blog post on securing your site here:

Enjoy, and if you have questions, just ask!
