Not Secure

Using Chrome browser, latest version (Version 77.0.3865.90 (Official Build) (64-bit)) for MacOS Mojave and when the DMP Forum comes up, it says "Not Secure." Same message in Safari.

Thanks Martin. It's a known issue. The site does not have an HTTPS certificate (despite being free these days). I have requested this twice now, nothing has happened yet. I can only ask, I don't have access to Vanilla support.

What the message means is that everything you read and write on this site is unencrypted clear-text communication. That includes our passwords. We need this certificate.

I had noticed the missing https as well.
it would be great if that were added.

@PaulB, thanks for the response. You're certainly right -- you can get the certificate for free nowadays and installing it is only a matter of a few minutes at the most. I noticed that drawmixpaint.com is not secure either. I'm sure Mark could fix this in no time -- if he had any time. He's probably so busy he can't get to it.

Martin, we have an SSL cert in place and the HTTP is now being redirected to HTTPS. So our login and comments are now encrypted.

The CDN appears to be not encrypted, and the mix of SSL and non-SSL content served is why the browsers will never be happy, but we have what we need.

Yay!   We're secure now.

Thanks @PaulB. We are all so glad you have a handle on this and we appreciate your efforts.
