- gadders 12y agoI think the owner needs to update his URLs to use the Raw Git CDN. From their FAQ: Can I use a rawgit.com URL on a production website? No. Please use cdn.rawgit.com for anything that might result in heavy traffic. Only use rawgit.com URLs for low-traffic testing and sharing temporary examples or demos during development. When people misuse rawgit.com, it costs me money. Please don't be a jerk. What will happen if I send large amounts of traffic to a rawgit.com URL? Bad things. First, requests will be throttled and your site will load very slowly. If the traffic continues even after automatic throttling is triggered, rawgit.com will start serving evil.js and evil.css instead of requested JS and CSS files. Visitors to your site may see an annoying alert warning against using rawgit.com in production, and your JS and CSS may start doing very strange things. This is designed to get your attention and encourage you to stop being a jerk. Only use cdn.rawgit.com in production; never rawgit.com.

- fphhotchips 12y agoBetter yet, I think the fact that it's using the wrong rawgit url is stopping the store page from working, since every time I try to purchase, this message comes up.
