New Security: Please Look out for Glitches

Greg

I have just enabled an extra level of security when you are browsing YLF. This is something that many websites have and we're following suit. You should see a little padlock alongside the address bar, and depending on your browser, the word "secure" might appear there too.

There was nothing untoward happening that caused us to take this measure. It is just something that modern websites do these days. It will stop a hacker from intercepting the info that you post to YLF when you're on an insecure network. For example, your password will be safe when you're logging in to YLF using WiFi at a coffee shop.

It is possible that this thing I enabled (it is called SSL) causes a glitch or two, so please let me know if you see anything strange.

UPDATE: The site might ask you to log in again. This is normal.

Yes! How could I forget Sam, who is, after all, in charge of security.

I always feel safe when I see Batsam is on duty! That picture of him at the top of the stairs always cracks me up...

Batsam is adorable!
Cocoa the Springer Spaniel wants to put on her superhero costume and come over to play - and fight some crime.
ETA : couldn't add a photo - don't know if that's a glitch or my ineptitude?

Would this cause issues uploadimg photos? I can't upload photos to a post all of a sudden and I've never had it happen before. It looks like it will load, and then it says it failed.

Oh thank you Sam also. Pictures are to cute.

Chewy, I can add photos. Can you try logging out and then logging back in?

I haven't been able to upload pics, either.

A lot of the small graphics appear to be missing as well. I'm seeing numerals, or tiny boxes. I haven't tried to upload a picture yet. I'm using Firefox.

Thanks, Greg! YLF is in good hands with you and your trusty sidekick!

I had the same glitch as chewyspaghetti and read your answer to her. Your solution worked.

Thanks for keeping our safety in mind, Greg, and for all the work you do here. And Batsam deserves an extra puppy treat for sure.

Greg

Ginger, would you please try logging out, and logging in again. I think that will solve the problem. I have tested in Firefox and things seemed ok once I did that.

If the issue persists, please let me know.

I also had trouble uploading photos from my phone on my home wifi network this afternoon. I logged out and back on from my phone browser, but no luck. Then I tried again a while later while I was out and about, and it worked just fine. So I'm good now, but if you're collecting data, here's mine.
