Moved to new server and HTTPS is now enabled :-)

Hi All!

As some of you may have noticed, we have moved to a new server

We have also enabled secure connections, via https, so a padlock should appear next to the https://www.over50sforum.com URL when you click into the forum via https.

I have not 'forced' https as of yet (so you can still get to the forum via normal http), just in case there are any problems - if you notice any, please let us know!

There IS one problem to be aware of though, any images in threads that are not uploaded directly to the forum (so hot linked from sites such as photobucket) may trigger your browser to report that the page contains insecure elements (i.e those photos, since they themselves may not be hosted on an https site). Unfortunately on this forum there is no way to get around that - so just upload your photos via the attachments system, instead of hotlinking to images on other sites whenever possible.

If you notice any other issues please let us know

Pleased to meet you Azz.

But who's in charge around here.

My address bar still shows *not secure* ... no padlock ... Chrome 68.0.3440.106

Thank you Azz - I have changed the bookmark to https://www.over50sforum.com/ and everything looks OK.

I'm using Imgur for image hosting. This is an https site. Am I still OK to keep using it?
