Tumblr isn't accepting my theme because of non-http urls

I changed all http into https but this continues to pop up: "Uh oh! We couldn't save your theme. Looks like your custom theme references assets from non-HTTPS URLs. Please try again using only HTTPS URLs."

Link to my theme code: pastebin(.)com/raw/0Rr9nHcy

I've just had this same issue on Tumblr. Here's how to resolve it.

  1. Go to Edit Theme > Edit HTML. Go through all of your html and change any links to files (css/javascript etc.) from http to https - this should only links in src attributes, you shouldn't have to change any href attributes. Once you've finished Update Preview and then Save.

If you get the error "Uh oh! We couldn't save your theme. Looks like your custom theme references assets from non-HTTPS URLs. Please try again using only HTTPS URLs." when you save do the following:

  1. Copy all of your theme out to a plain text editor such as textedit. Exit Edit HTML and go back to the Main Edit Appearance screen. Refresh your browser and go back into Edit Theme > Edit HTML. Delete all your theme's html and copy your saved html back into Tumblr's Edit HTML. Now it should save.

Disclaimer: I am not responsible if you delete your theme's HTML without having saved it somewhere first - please follow the instructions carefully!
