Oh I hear you on that ... but if you explain to your members why those popups are triggered then they will understand... believe me if my forum's members are concerned about something like this I make sure I explain to them in detail what "mixed content" is ..why google and chrome feel the need to warn us about it and the risks of allowing something to load up if its not https hosted ...
So far I haven't had any problems what soever ... The responsibility of owning and operating a forum and website is knowing how to communicate with you members and explaining to them the risks of using not just your site and forums but any out there ... and what to do to protect themselves from these threats ...
The fact that I take the time to explains stuff like this to them is why my site/forums has been so successful and why I decided to put my site/forums behind https ....
I launched my website/forums in 2008 and it has been behind https since then without problems ...
So yes, "our" member's concerns are also our concerns and problems ... totally agree !!!
