I can assuage a few concerns :)

We have double-checked that our SSL stuff is up-to-date and set up correctly, and that URL redirection is also set up correctly. This is all configured on our Cloudflare.

I think the issue is likely on the browser side - especially given that, in Romaniyu's case, it was confirmed to be an issue with Chrome - so I would make sure you are using the most up-to-date version of your browser. If the issue persists, please let us know with your exact browser version, and I can get in touch with Chrome/Firefox developers to see if we can get to the bottom of it!

Oh, huh, good catch. I'll look into that!

[edit] Is that something you're seeing on every page?

Also,

• what sidebar widgets are you using?
• do you use any custom CSS?

This issue should now be fixed on all browsers :)

Thank you for your patience. It was an issue with specifically the Hustler banner, which contained a broken avatar link to our old avatar system (which predates HTTPS!) Our website uses up-to-date SSL, but that pesky avatar image was causing browsers to complain and load an unsecure version of the page. It's now been removed so you should no longer be encountering this issue.

nvm bug posted xD

Re-opening this issue because it seems like it's still not consistently redirecting people to the secure website.

Workaround for now: If you notice you're browsing this website insecurely, change the "http://" part of the address to "https://" to go to the secure version of the website.

We apologize for the inconvenience and any worry this has caused. Please rest assured that you are fully secure as long as you are on the HTTPS version of the website. The problem is just that it is not redirecting visitors off of the insecure version correctly, and I will be sure to let you know when I have an update on that issue.

Hello! I had mentioned this in a site update on January 5th, but I just realized I never said anything here. I'll quote it here for anyone who may have missed the update. :)

Okay, I'll let Keith know. Thanks!

Hey everyone - We are aware this is still happening.

For now, the workaround: The site is still safe and secure as long as you are on the https:// version. If you notice the browser address says http:// you can fix this by just changing it to https://

We are still looking into why the redirect is not happening correctly and will continue to provide updates as necessary.

Hey!!! So we did some stuff with Cloudflare, and you SHOULD be getting correctly redirected to https from now on! Please let me know here if this is working or not for you now. Thank you!

This is because people can put images in their forum posts (for example, forum images and in their signature, or in the posts themselves) and these images may not be secure. Same goes for custom coding such as custom images on user and pet profiles.

We don't have much control over this, since we can't control if the websites users host images on are using SSL correctly. We could force all of these images to be HTTPS, and that option is on the table, but doing so might cause a lot of images hosted elsewhere to stop working entirely, and would basically force everyone to find a secure host for their forum images.
