My laptop always says that the connection is not secure, no little padlock in the address bar?

I noticed how few people there were looking at this site, very odd, just wondered if others found this off putting or simply cannot access the site.
If so it's a great shame, it's a cracking site, full of fantastic info and great people...forums thrive on contribution?

Same here - perhaps a security certificate has expired. Does anyone know how to contact Paul?

Hi Folks,

The unsecured warning is because we didn't switch from http to https connection. I could try flicking the switch to change that, but anyone using the old http version of the address might not find us initially.

Cheers,

Paul
You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

I think running HTTPS should be considered. It will make the site more secure and allow me to access the site from my work environment :oops:
