Thanks for that Steve. Yes, you're correct and our Forum hosts have assured me that all will be sorted within 48 hours. (that was two days ago and I'm still waiting)

Patience Randa, 48 hours equates to two days methinks

SSL stands for secure sockets layer. Gotta call it something I suppose.
I am so glad that I am now retired and don't have to worry myself about this stuff any more ( unless I really want to, which isn't very often).

The main issue is that https traffic is redirecting to https://www.eribafolk.com (not secure).
The SSL certs have not expired but the server is using some out of date TLS protocols which may well cause Google to complain if you ever managed to reach the secure (https) version of the site.

For a lot of web sites this would not be a big deal as the login page is usually protected by https, eribafolk doesn't do this so it is possible for account details to be sniffed.

The simple fix would be to direct all non http traffic to https rather than the other way round.

Hi. Hmmmn, I think an intermediate SSL certificate is missing/not installed. This breaks the trusted link between sites. In this case facebook Eriba ok, Eriba forum not ok. This has been happening since I joined here over a year ago.

Based on the following which is available through any online SSL checker - methinks that the hosting company Hetzner Online is not quite up to snuff.

www.eribafolk.com resolves to 46.4.4.180

Server Type: nginx

The certificate should be trusted by all major web browsers (all the correct intermediate certificates are installed).

The certificate will expire in 80 days.

The hostname (www.eribafolk.com) is correctly listed in the certificate.
Common name: eribafolk.com
SANs: eribafolk.com, www.eribafolk.com
Valid from October 15, 2018 to January 13, 2019
Serial Number: 037ea34471beb71e96e926865694c3e4aeb8
Signature Algorithm: sha256WithRSAEncryption
Issuer: Let's Encrypt Authority X3

Finally, we have got our SSL Encryption back (https) and a huge apology from our hosts for the time it has taken to repair the problem.
