el_bandido Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 I routinely get warnings from my browser that this site is "not secure" in such that there is no HTTPS facility. Have we any plans to change this? I appreciate it might seem trivial, but as a paranoid tinfoil hat wearing type it bugs me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robin Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 (edited) it is not the end of the world as there is not much sensitive info here but you should definately never reuse the password used on the mkiv owners club elsewhere is it is sent plaintext when you log in. There are a few cheap https options: 1. Lets encrypt - free but you need to renew every 90 days or automate this. 2. put the forum behind cloudflare - free plans but you need control of the mkivsupra.net domain DNS to do this. 3. buy a cert, namecheap does comodo ones for about 6 quid for 2 years. Given how there are free or cheap options out there we really should get the site setup for https. Edited to add: if the mods/owners want a hand doing this then I ma happy to help.

mawby Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 It is work in progress. There is a very legitimate reason why this hasn't happened already, and hopefully before the end of the week I can tell you all why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
