Any forums using https?

[keith.arvixe]

I personally use SSL for everything to be quite frank. I use it with my login pages as well as anything that has to do with client pages.

I'm using HTTPS since 2013 and had no problem so far.

Something like this:

SSLCipherSuite ALL:!aNULL:!ADH:!eNULL:!LOW:!EXP:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM

I heard RC4 is broken already.

We use it on the following sites:

https://www.religiousforums.com/
https://www.aspiescentral.com/
https://www.v6mustang.com/
https://www.orchidsforums.com/
https://www.rwdcoupe.com/

Yes, RC4 will get you a lower score

I've just fixed that with a different cipher suite

Do you care to share which cipher suite your using.

 

[Sheratan]

Try this

ALL:!ADH:!aNULL:!EXP:!LOW:!RC2:!3DES:!SEED:!RC4:+HIGH:+MEDIUM

I've used it for years, zero issue.

I've brought a SSL from GEOtrust but what I didn't know what they issue self certificates that flag up everyones browsers. I've had to bin it and go back to http

Anyone know a decent host that provides SSL? I'm not a teccy and can't spend my own time messing about etc. It's a hobby site so want as easy as possible

 

[digitalpoint]

I used SSL for a few years (mostly because I wanted SPDY support). I ended up just utilizing CloudFlare's shared SSL certificate instead of renewing my own certificate. No problems at all and not really sure why anyone would want to *not* use SSL these days (especially since even CloudFlare's free plan includes it for no cost now).

same went with SSL just for SPDY http://centminmod.com/nginx_configure_https_ssl_spdy.html

On my 3rd year of using SSL right now.. it's much cheaper these days as I supply my own SSL certs (reseller account) so can get Comodo backed SSL Wildcard certs as low as US$39/yr (discount perks for my premium paid forum member subcribers ). So with some of my domains with 40+ subdomain based sites, that's less <$1/yr per site to be covered by SPDY SSL

Also working on my own Centmin Mod Nginx vhost SSL generator script to make the initial setup much easier https://community.centminmod.com/threads/centmin-mod-nginx-vhost-spdy-ssl-generator-testing.990/

Ah, I didn't know CloudFlare used https for the free version. I may as well do that

 

[keith.arvixe]

Using Cloudflare seems like it would be a great choice. I will have to look into this. I use SSL for my sites as well.

What kind of flag? Maybe you just forget to include intermediate?

Tested it out myself but mt site now looks like this https://motovlog.com/, clearly not right

I did that earlier and it's still the same. I'm presuming it's images or CSS that's the problem.

I think I'll just find a host that can do it all, I've worked my pants off getting the forum busy, don't want to ruin it over night

 

[SEOmers]

So I've spoken to my host, removed CloudFlare and started again but whenever I install the GeoTrust SSL into my Cpanel. I get left with a dead site on https:// https://motovlog.com/

Does anyone know a solution? My host pinchhost reckons it's down to xenforo not allowing https, yet this very site is using it, even @digitalpoint is using it, his site is one of the busiest forums in the world

So recap, I use Cloudflare and I can't see CSS or images, I use my own certificate but I get a dead site https://motovlog.com/

your images are all loading over HTTP & your browser is preventing this
