Updates!

Thanks for your response, Tweak

It does seem to already add https for me (link to this topic looks like this) :

So I don't know if I'm doing something wrong?

[Tweak]

@Ventus - Then it should be fine.


@Michen - There is still some mixed content which may cause some browsers to not show the site as fully secure. This will be fixed.

You see Secure Socket layer??? (SSL)

I was under the impression normal members didn't see SSL.

If this helps Firefox doesn't reckon your site is secured when navigating to a thread.

When it's a board (outside of a thread but looking over the forum index) it is seen as secured, but inside a thread it isn't secured.

Looking over the Announcements board



Looking inside this thread

To just make it clear: I browse mostly on Chrome, and with other websites which have an SLL connection I do see it. I know what it looks like (I might not be a professional, but I know a bit about website building and putting them online, I make websites myself now and again)

That was to Tweak, not to you xD

I was telling tweak what conditions cause browsers to say TFF isn't secure.

[Ventus Fall]

Apologies, Anoni ^^;
I didn't see you replied to Tweak, I thought you were trying to tell me I should use Firefox or something xD

There were some changes made to the software versions tonight. This should lead to improved performance.

However, there may be a few bugs as a result of these changes. Please let me know if you come across any.

Is that the reason why I couldn't post things?

[Firox]

great job as always Tweak
did let you know of the bug, good thing it was fix without major issues

[Tweak]

IRC has been removed due to lack of use. Although a minimal performance impact, it seemed pointless to be running something that was not used.

[Alessia Starfurr]

So what benifits to the site are there with SSL?

[Tweak]

Generally it makes us more secure, your data is all encrypted whilst being sent to and received from the forums.

It also is the new standard - many browsers are starting to warn on non-SSL websites, Google changes it's search results on it, etc.

Finally, things should be faster. Using SSL allows the use of HTTP2 which is considerably faster than HTTP1 is, it causes less calls to the server and thus also lowers the load.
