Forum Side Bar

[lester]

The side bar (right hand forum column) has been removed, it served no real purpose.This feature can be re-instated if users feel that it is a requirement.If re-instated, some suggestions as to appropriate content would be appreciated.Thank you Lester

What I miss is the various attributes, if I am correctly stated, when replying or making a new post. E.g. making text bold, other color etc.

Also the Manage Attachments is a lot different now, and took me a while to be able to attach an image to a post.

With the text editor, you can make your test BOLD and any colour you wish.
Did I mis-understand

[lester]

I have - just now - forced the use of WYSIWYG editore for all replies.

[Ioannis]

Well, I do not have any controls as you can see from the attachment.

Ioannis

[lester]

Ioannis, I checked your account - in a FRESH browser instance - and it seems to be working as I expect.

Are you still seeing something different.


Lester

[Ioannis]

OK, but I do not see those controls in the red circle. Also the Manage Attachments is shown differently at least to me and does not show me if I finally have attached the file/picture/whatever I'd like to attach.

This is the current post as I see it:

Hi Ioannis, i'd like to look into this issue with the editor. I need to reproduce your environment. Which browser and browser version are you using? Have you definatley cleared site data and cookies and restarted the browser. At present as you can see, If I use the admin privelidge and log in as you, I see the correct text editor. Lester

Ioannis, I have seen the issue. I am working on it. The issue arises because there are some requests inside the forum code - specifically the CK aditor and some Ajax calls, that are making requests over http. Becuase the browser is accepting HTTPS only, those items are being blocked by your browser The forum code is supposed to work out what to use based upon the incomming request. Its not working correctly. I will try to fix this

[Ioannis]

I tried on Opera, Edge and Chrome. Same on these 3 browsers.

I wonder, am I the only one that face this problem?

About the Manage Attachments? Is it the same issue?

Ioannis

[lester]

I am looking into it.If you force HTTP its fine, but if you use HTTPS its broken.

[lester]

Once again, the issue is that this forum is old and needs upgrading.With HTTPS enabled, the forum is working , but its serving Mixed content HTTPS and HTTPBrowsers are not allowing - BLOCKING - HTTP content when in HTTPSI need to move to another level of HTTPS and install some verified certificates locally.But then the forum core is still old and requires an update.
