vBulletin google results HTTPS (broken images, etc)

Is it possible to use the Replacement Variable Manager to change the https to http?

Yes, I've used for many changes over the years.

Would not help this situation. The https code isn't being generated by vBulletin. vBulletin is using relative links that don't have the https/http as part of the link.

Ah okay, wasn't sure. Thanks for clarifying.

I apologize Paul. But after I made my suggestion regarding "solving" the https:// issue, regardless it not being supported I haven't received any private message back. At such I had the feeling at that point I was being ignored regarding solving the issue. And seeing this issue has been around for a couple of years? (if I read the above posts correctly), then personally I have my doubts anything is being or will be done about it.

I'm sorry if I'm rude... but this is incredible easy to solve yet after the 'issue' being around for so long it's just being plainly ignored. I know this might not be the top priority, but if it's so simple to 'solve' it shouldn't take so long.

I participate in a velomobile forum that's running vbulletin. When we post embedded http images there's no problem.

However, last night I attempted to post a link to

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByW...ew?usp=sharing

I got the following broken image icon.



It appears to me that vBulletin isn't handling the link correctly because the link functions if I paste it to a browser.

Is there a workaround for this issue?
