We are in the process of updating the site to conform to secure access.

The little lock in the address bar that lets you know the connection is secure here.

There maybe a few hiccups along the way most of it is done now but somethings possibly might be broken.

If you find anything not working let me know as it could be related to this update as it is pretty pervasive.

Going try to get the last few items sorted out by the end of next week.

We will see how that goes lol.

This is what shows on my monitor. I'm using Chrome on a Mac, by the way

Thanks for all your hard work, CT. It can't be easy keeping a site up and running.

Topic views are different from other pages, every post has items like linked images that are linked out and were made before this change so the url's are wrong, those may never be all secure folks, you guys are looking at ghosts there.

The main pages to the forum, the gallery, the portal etc are what should be secure now.

I can't control someone adding a image to a post or a link that is not a secure link, like signatures etc, so every page will not be secure for along time yet.

What we are talking about here are the main pages, not ones where posts/comments etc are made by users.

home.php
index.php
https://www.euphoricfx.org/efxcoverart/index.php
https://www.euphoricfx.org/efxresources/index.php
medals.php

That would be the ones that have viewtopic.php or displayimage.php in the url, no way to filter those yet.

There maybe others like them as well that I have not seen yet so this is a ongoing issue and as I said old stuff entered before yesterday is subject to have non-secure items embedded in it that I can't simply remove or alter.

In time I may have fixes for those but we are talking about 114,912 posts in 12,203 topics, I'm not reviewing them all nor editing them...

Any of you folks want to volunteer to check and fix all those?

I promise it will be a huge job take years to finish...
