Site security update
Forum Index > Core > Announcements > News Archive >
Um, I apologize for asking this question but regarding the two links posted on the front page (The green secure and the Information icon), they're both secured links right? >.<

The green Secure means (a lot of things) but it means all images on the page are secure. If you see the i with a circle, it means there are insecure images on the page.
For example, the banner in your signature is not secure. I do not believe that Tinypic has secure hosting, as changing the URL from 'http' to 'https' gave me an error.

Oh, I was wondering why there's two different ones when I visit forum and party.
I took the banner away and the (i) icon changed to 'green secure' for me, thank you for your help :)
That's a helpful update! Thank you Niet! I don't really use pictures but it's better to know that PFQ is safe.
/I like how in Russian it sounds like "Nice job, no"/
This update will certainly be helpful!
And for any user who would rather continue using images from DeviantART, Imgur, etc all you have to do is manually edit the image URL and add the "s" in https:// and it works just fine! :>

So I was curious to see just how many insecure images were referenced.
Go to any forum page.
Into your browser's console, type $("[src*='http://']").attr("src","/breakimage");.
LOOK AT THAT. Look at all of those broken images.
Thanks for bringing up quick ways too see which images are affected :)
However that doesn't include http images loaded via CSS e.g. background images. If you want to see all broken images on a site you could open your browser console and do nothing, it'll list all the http content.
