Default Would anyone like to discuss moving to SSL/HTTPS?
I'm guessing this isn't something anyone really wants to talk about. My vBulletin 3 sites seem to find SSL very attractive. No problems. vBulletin 4 is another story. Is anyone running SSL on vB4 without any problems? A few issues I've encountered so far...

1. The editor doesn't work anymore. You need to edit code in class_bootstrap.php to fix that problem. FIXED BY DAVE

2. The "Reply With Quote" button doesn't work anymore - unless you click it once, wait for the spinning "loading" gif to appear - and then click again. Just double clicking doesn't work. FIXED BY DAVE

3. Attachments don't work. You can get as far as clicking submit to upload your file - but then the attachment window just fills with a vBulletin page that states you don't have permission to do what you're doing...

4. Quick User Finder doesn't work anymore and if I search for an email address, I can only search for the domain name - like "gmail.com" - the @ sign or anything before it will prevent it from working. I can hit enter or submit and the data will just clear out...

That's all I found before I gave up and turned SSL off... If anyone would like to talk about their challenges and/or successes, please do...

I did not have those problems at all and there already is a discussion going on about switching to https://..

What version of Vbulletin are you using?

I moved all my vb4 boards over to https a few weeks back and had none of those issues, I just changed the site url in the admincp, added a few replacement variables to catch anything I'd hard coded to http and rebuilt the styles - all done and working fine within 15 minutes.

That's awesome. I wonder if it has something to do with the type of certificate used. I use a free certificate from Cloudflare. Is THIS the discussion you're referring to?:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=322813

If not, would you point me in the right direction?

Wow. Nice... I wonder if the replacement variables did the trick. You didn't even have to deal with this?:

Your problem sounds like JavaScript files that are still loaded over HTTP.
If you open up the developer tools (F12) in Chrome and refresh the page that has issues, you should see some red errors in the console tab that indicate what's going wrong.

No I didn't have to deal with that, everything just worked fine.

As Dave has said open your F12 developer tools on the console and check the errors, most things should be easy enough to sort.

I think this is the thread RichieBoy67 meant: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=323946

I moved to https just recently as well, using Let's Encrypt, and I did not have any issues. I didn't use any replacements vars, but I did edit my templates and changed everything which was hard coded. I used a SQL query to find them all.

Also, this link was a huge help with some of the cleanup things: https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/arti...forum-to-https

Thanks, guys. I read that discussion just now... I have a "stock", unmodified vB4 running the latest non-beta version that I use to test things here:
https://lf3performance.com/

I just converted that over to SSL and it's got all the issues. Considering it's unmodified - I wonder if there's a certain type of server setting that's causing my problems. If some of you guys are simply installing the SSL certificate and updating the URLs in the Admin CP to get it working - then I'm surprised. I guess you're lucky...

Have you tried using the style variable replacement tool to convert: "http://www.lf3performance.com" to "https://www.lf3performance.com"? Also try clearing the server cache in the AdminCP under maintenance.

When I check the source code of the forum, I still see a couple of references to the HTTP version of your site.

HTML Code:

Ah! You beat me to that. I just updated all the images to /images/ and now I've got the nice green "lock" icon. But the other issues are still there...
