The png is the link.

I recently tried to open my website vegyfy.weebly.com

But got the screen the screenshot shows above. However my other website fruitfruits.weebly.com works perfectly fine. Im confused.

Not sure what you are going for here,  but random links with no context are often associated with bad actors, so I can't really help you without more information.

[ZanderMan]

Did you not read it? The link is the screenshot of the screen I had when I tried to edit my site. If you need more info please ask. Also there is no need for "context". I just want to know what it is and what I or you can do to fix it. Yes the link works. And what with the sentence "but random links with no context are often associated with bad actors". Where did the acting come from?

@ZanderMan  What @Donnie-M meant is that we see the link as a link to a file on your computer, not an actual link to anything we can see. A lot of times with links like these, it is a way for scammers ("bad actors") to load bad things onto people's systems, and we usually steer clear of the link. The link may work for you on your computer, but it doesn't get us anywhere.

To your issue, though: when I go to vegyfy.weebly.com, I see no 500 issues on my side. I can browse every page in your dropdown links. More than likely the server took a little more time than usual to get everything configured for you. If you're still seeing the issue, please let us know!

Thank You @ryanwanner . However when I try to edit my site it gives me that Error 500 Screen. It works to get in on another device but not to edit.

[ryanwanner]

@ZanderMan  Aah. During editing you're getting the 500 error. Gotcha!

In that case I think your best bet would be to contact Weebly Support. There's something fishy going on with the load of your website, and they have the tools to be able to fix it. That's not something we have access to in a public forum.

You can contact Weebly support by calling the Square support line at 855 - 700 - 6000 and listen for the online/weebly prompts.

Best of luck!

I'll concur just for emphasis.  Square owns weebly, but some of the systems are not completely one and we primarily see the commerce side here and point of sale.  I think talking with someone at weebly about your specific account could be better and faster.

Ah, now we have context— much easier 😏

1️⃣ Your original post was just a broken local file path, meaning no one but you could see it. If you want help, you can attach the actual image or describe the issue a little more.

2️⃣ “Bad actors” isn’t about Hollywood, Broadway, or even a bad community theater production—with cybersecurity you never know what kind of show someone will put on.

3️⃣ I ran a website check on vegyfy.weebly.com (didn’t check fruitfruits, that one’s on you), and found:

• Mixed Content Issues (HTTPS pages linking to HTTP)
• No protection against cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks)
• A form submitting data over unsecured HTTP, which browsers block automatically for security reasons

What I suggest to do:

✔ Check your SSL settings in Weebly and ensure all links are HTTPS.
✔ Fix unsecured forms, or browsers will keep blocking them.
✔ Now, I’m always happy to help, but you’ve got to give me something to work with. Even I can’t solve problems in a vacuum—though I do admire your confidence. 😏

Thank You Donnie, but i'm not sure how to fix this. Can you tell me or add a link to a tutorial?

Hey there @ZanderMan 👋 My name is Violet and I'm one of the Moderators here in the Square Community 🙂

I'm happy to share some resources on checking your SSL settings. Take a look at this article from the Weebly Support center.

In order to assist you further, could you let me know the steps you're taking up to the point you're seeing the error in the Editor? If possible, could you please include a screenshot or video so our support team can take a look into this?

I'll keep an eye out for your reply.

For now, I'll mark this response as the Best Answer to this question but we can update this later on.
