Accessing the Forum Securely.

[jonastio]

So, I've got SSL enabled on the forum and have switched it over. You might see the https://forum.capitalcitygunforum.com thing pop up. I found a cheap SSL cert provider ($25 for 5 years!!!!) that's backed by Comodo. I'm trying to figure out what parts aren't coming up cleanly, but should have it figured out soon enough.

For the non-technical types, what this means is that your connection to the forum is now encrypted. That means when you use the site at work, the only thing they see is that you're accessing the site. They cannot intercept any of the traffic. Nobody can intercept your login to the forum when you're using public WiFi. This is a really good thing and something that I've been hoping to do for a good long while but it was cost prohibitive ($80-$500 yearly).

I'm pretty stinking excited about this one.

Okidoki, if you have a problem while using Chrome and there's a big ugly red cross mark on the url of the page like there's a warning, do this. Close your browser and re-open it and then come back to CCGF. You should get a nice green lock on the page. Old stuff was cached which caused the error to show incorrectly. Sometimes you might get a yellow triangle, but that's no biggie. Could just be a link to an image or a youtube video.

Looks like it might be a day or so for your tapatalk connections to be fully secure. Tapatalk caches the site URL and the cache will need to clear on your device.

Nice work. Thank you. For what it's worth the site comes up fine with no certificate warnings on my Windoze 8/IE 11 machine.

Coach.
