SSL OS/2world

Roderick Klein:
While the postings on os2world.com are not really that secret. Is OS2WORLD.COM going to use SSL encryption ?
As in the near future web browsers such as Firefox will warn if a website does not use SSL. It might scare away users... Just a thought...

Hi Roderick

I had read the news and I'm also concerned about this topic. I had chatted with the webmaster to check what are the options.

I have no idea about this subject or what are the required steps to get the ssl certificate, I also need to learn more about it.

Whoever looks after the server needs to install it :)

Hi

Kim (the webmaster) just installed an ssl certificate.

On the main page the firefox warning says that some parts of the site are insecure. I will check on that. Possible because I take parts of the forum and wiki on the main page.
On the forum it is working fine. The firefox warning says it is secure.
On the wiki it also says that parts of the site are insecure. But it also broke the layout of the page. I also got to check on that.

Hi.

I pinpointed the problem on the SSL's main page.

There is the block that says "Latest Forum Posts" if I turn it off the encryption padlock will turn green.

The warning on the console says:
"Loading mixed (insecure) display content “https://www.os2world.com/components/com_jfusion/images/new.png” on a secure page"

It is the "New" png file from the JFusion component that I use to merge users from Joomla, MediaWiki and SMFForum.

I'm checking my options here. Suggestions are welcome.

Regards
