Sounds like the css url is still http://

Try updating styles too in the maintenance section.

I did that, Why when I log, than it is all as supposed to be.
Secure is ok in both situations, that means all guests will see my forum centered
Thank you for the answers

Are you paying for it? Some of us can't use use free SSL certificates.

Did you try searching your templates and plug ins for http:// ??

Well you can get a paid one for like $10 a year..There are free ones as well. Why can't you get a free one?

Why cant you use free ones ?

Quick question - if you had google analytic's running before the switch to https do you have to start and make a new account on google or can you just go into your google account and change the urls over to https?

Not not analytics but you will need to create a new webmaster tools account.

The web host doesn't allow it.

Make sure you are at 4.2.3 or above..

Then it's honestly time to find a new host...

They probably want to force her to buy one through them. :eek:

I found the problem, I had an announcement about turning to https, I had these two in wrong order, so when user loged out there was a problem, now it is ok.
<div align="center">xxxxxx<div/>
<vb:if condition="$show['member']">xxxxxxxxx</vb:if>


For now I am in vb4.2.0 (Is there a problem with https??

Is this correct? I must do that to?? Why?
I only insert the url of my forum with HTTPS, so I I have both. Is this wrong?



Thank you Richie for you help :)

All links are the same until here,

Thanks

Yes you need to add it to google webmaster tools. They treat it like a brand new url basically.

Don't know about that url but you should be able to find it either in a template or phpadmin. Could be a signature image.

This also needs to be done for phrases table, users table for signatures and any place else where a full local http:// url could be hiding.:up:

What is the source of the URL; is it in posts, signatures, some other table?

images in posts [IMG]

Thanks

Assuming "mysite" is your forum url ...

Usual backup warnings etc...

Seriously ?

Get a new host, who you get your SSL certificate from is non of their business.

Easier said than done when you've paid for a year of dedicated hosting in advance. I would still like a reasonable explanation as to why Google considers this a necessity for sites which contain absolutely zero personal identifying information and conduct zero financial transactions. I'm sure we won't receive one. But there is something more to their insistence on SSL than our security. I think their advertisers are requesting or requiring it. Otherwise, I cannot imagine they would care in the least.

What is dedicated hosting?

You would have to ask Google, Apple, Microsoft, Mozilla and others for an explanation.

What a pita https is.
I clicked let's encrypt within my cpanel and went to working on changing all http to https. My site is heavily modified and still shows "Your connection to this site is not fully secure".
I went through all my plugins editing and find a few refuse to use https.
Having trouble wrapping my head around how to get some addons to accept https and others refuse to function using https....
Upgrading to the latest stable vb4 would be set up default https?

This should help..

And no, I do not think just doing an upgrade would save you though the latest beta works well with https:// it is not going to change your content.

Thanks Richie, I have been fixing links shown from whynopadlock. Exhausting.

Did you use this bro?

UPDATE post SET pagetext = REPLACE(pagetext, 'http://path-to-image-store.com/', 'https://path-to-image-store.com/');

No, do I need to? I seem to be having an issue with only one image that I can not find anywhere.

Now to get a couple addons working properly with https..

Check your signature table.. I found many non compliant images there

I went into phpadmin and did a search there for the non ssl urls..

I think I am winning.
I have one image that I cannot find anywhere.

Any thoughts on finding it?

It's in your css somewhere - search in styles - )

yep....it was there. Only place I did not search.
Thank you.

Great. All you need to do now is convert your ad servers to get rid of the mixed content warnings.

I am glad I switched to https.

Did you have any issues with (vb4) quick reply or the bbcodes showing page as insecure?

I have and had no issues with either eddie ... I have been on https for the last 5 years now

odd, on a friends vb4 site everything is perfect but only when the quick reply is shut off.
I turn it back on, the page shows insecure.
I checked and edited the custom bbcode to https, checked all default bbcode, thoughts?

Double check the button image paths.

Triple checked... oddly enough, when adding insecure https URL to https://www.whynopadlock.com it shows the link as secure. I am baffled.

whynopadlock has limitations. For example, only registered members see the QR box - or any other elements you have chosen to hide from guest viewing

Very strange I don't see anywhere on my site what would possibly cause that either ...

Can you provide a link to yer' friends site ...

I got it worked out Cheech, I started my own thread about it even though I hijacked this one pretty good.

Hi all!

Did anyone encounter problems with avatars not working after migrating to https? The images are in the directory, but when viewing the avatar manager (and the individual users), they are not showing up. Stumped here...

Am using WP and VB and am wondering how to fix my .htaccess as well.

Paula

It has been awhile but I used replacement variables. I believe that fixed the avatars.

I used this in htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

For wordpress there is a plug in. I will look at one of my sites and let you know what it is. I cannot recall right now.

##
The wordpress plug in is Really Simple SSL

You may still have to do work though to fix it depending on plug ins, themes, widgets, etc. I did on a couple of my sites.
