That is usually by doing a request for images or other files via an insecure HTTP link.


You can test that with the Live HTTP Headers extension if you want to verify that.

Open the Live HTTP Headers extension via the Tools menu and open the Generator pane.
Tick all the boxes in the Show panel at the right and do a hard reload via "Command + Shift + R"
