Installed SSL cert, woocommerce shop doesn't render correctly; mixed assets?

I installed an ssl cert the other day because I’m wanting to use braintree (for some reason, prob shoulda just stayed with regular paypal…)

1st issue: When I log in and try to make theme changes to woo, it renders all crazy. I have to log out and refresh to get the shop page or product pages to render correctly. This is bothersome.

I changed my wp-config.php file to “FORCE ADMIN LOGIN” or whatever, but otherwise, I don’t know what the problem is. I’m assuming this has to do with SSL because it got crazy right around the time I installed the cert… but maybe it’s something else? Please advise.

Screenshots on next (private) post.

2nd issue: I’ve never installed an SSL cert midstream before. It’s been upfront the other times, and maybe that’s why I don’t remember having these issues? But I’m getting the “mixed” content error on chrome. Using chrome dev tools, I’ve narrowed it mostly down to my header logos, as they were uploaded through WP Uploads to a http url instead of https. Do you know any easy tips to redo this or get the theme to pull just these from https?

I’m assuming I don’t really want all pages to be https because it’s better to use caching to serve most pages. But when it does make sense to serve the woocommerce cart page forced to ssl, then I’d like the little green padlock up there… Any advice? Or am I thinking about this wrong?
