Rich Posted July 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 I think the post tools have disappeared for links, emoticons, images etc. Anyone else missing them? Edit - Just checked on the laptop and they're there, it's when I view the desktop theme on my mobile they're missing. They have probably been missing all the time I've just not noticed!

Tony Posted July 6, 2018 Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 Done some images, no warnings showing about security. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted July 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 It won't be when you post them, any pages with images showing from the upload folder will display a warning in the address bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted July 6, 2018 Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 Not an area i use.... Do you think it will allow YouTube vids to load or as it is now which is a link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted July 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 That's what I was trying on the other thread but there's no point trying to sort it now with the upgrade coming shortly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted July 6, 2018 Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 True and that does explain the post size.... A link still works but an image of the vid might tempt me either way, look or don't look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffers Posted July 6, 2018 Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 Well done and thanks Rich, It's not as easy as people think and the amount of things that blindside you beggars belief sometimes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted July 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 Trawling through loads of code just to change or add a few words is mind-numbing but needs must if we want a functional forum. It seems a lot quicker so far, hopefully it stays that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBoy Posted July 7, 2018 Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 The "Not Secure"/crossed through padlock type stuff is a lot of the static embedded stuff like images/icons/smilies etc. This will need sorting in next few weeks, as Chrome will start really highlighting it to users very soon, and you can bet Firefox, Microsoft and Apple will follow suit soon. This has the potential to scare off many users, especiall non established users, perhaps those needing help the most - those in distress because their tyres are wearing unevenly or the vehicle isn't handling consistently. We have the same issues on https://www.omegaowners.com- our "own" stuff (apart from guides - the images there still need securing - is pretty nailed now, but a lot of user content fed from users' own hosting solutions aren't. So I feel your pain RIch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top job That's good to know I don't have windows so can only test things out on my Mac's. My stupid MacBook - just shy of £3k 2017 vintage MacBook Pro that work insisted on giving me, despite the fact it doesn't really work in our company so I still use my Windows one 99.99% of the time - only gets used about twice a year... …I take it on holiday as its lighter than my personal Windows laptop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I feel your pain RIch. I think I have sorted most of the issues now so nearly everything should be showing secure. I had a look at your forum and the emoticons are not shown over https so that's giving me a not fully secure message. Once you've changed to https shouldn't those load from that automatically unless the full length URL is used and that needs changing? I had that with the country flags, the URL was in the admin settings as http so it made the page look insecure. Once I changed it the page was secure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMARTLY Posted July 7, 2018 Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 Windows 10 / Chrome javascript void smiley when trying to click on the icon, but : ) works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted July 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2018 Can you post a screenshot of what's happening? Are you saying some of the emoticons aren't working? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMARTLY Posted July 8, 2018 Report Share Posted July 8, 2018 All of them via the toolbar above, ah they work now but give javascriptvoid('smiley') in the bottom left of screen in the toolbar. When you click on the toolbar above, but they still show below ........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted July 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2018 I've just used a Windows 10 laptop and chrome. It's when you hover over the emoticon it shows the message but they still work ok. I'll leave that as it'll probably be sorted in the upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted July 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2018 I've only been on a few times but had no issues myself. Don't forget it's still a shared server so there are still limitations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted July 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 I've noticed the forum is running a little slow today. There is no need to hit the post button twice, just leave it for 10-20 seconds and it'll submit. I'll have to keep an eye on it, hopefully it won't happen too often.

SMARTLY Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 I've had that the last couple of days Rich at times, you can see what it's doing in the bottom left tack bar. Something like connecting to host then making secure connection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
