Full Version: Running forum in https

I am considering running my forum in full https, but before I do, I would like to know if there are other members who have done the same and if there were any problems afterwards. I read somewhere on the forum there might be an issue with modals not working properly, how true is this ?
You shouldn't experience any problems once the URLs are set up properly (everything points to https:// instead of http://). The only issue would be external resources like images and videos included in users' posts when loaded over HTTP, which may cause browsers to trigger warnings (no green padlock icon) or display that content incorrectly (DVZ Secure Content can remedy that).

Thanks for the feedback.
I have https running now, and i have 2 issues so far  Huh

1)  Modals don't work
2) still investigating, but green lock don't appear on pages where smilies are being used.

Edit: I have installed the DVZ secure content plugin.

another edit: works on the default theme  Sad

modals working, just some minor things to sort out now  Big Grin
So what was the solution for modals?

Change http://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap...rap.min.js

to

https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstra...rap.min.js

And the problem was not with smilies, rather gravatar enabled images loading from http, I used DVZ secure plugin to rectify that.
