Site Upgrades

They just added a blue circle with a down-arrow under our names on posts, just in case you forget who you are.

It shows you your stats.

I don't exactly like the 'Not Secure' symbol in the address bar when the site is open. Any way to fix that?

I'll see if we can find a way to force people to HTTPS... We do support it.

EDIT: Just implemented this. If it causes issues, let me know.

The about us box is a bit briefer now than it was before:

About Us​

This got set back to defaults and I didn't know what was there so I had to put something there... Open to ideas.

You cannot make an http: link secure. You need to use https:.

True but we can force people to https, which... I did.. Just now..

The only change I noticed last night is that our avatars were round instead of square. Today they are once again square. I like square.

Not sure why that happened, but well leave it square then. I pretty much used the defaults for our theme and didn't change that particular aspect.
Things went kind of awry in upgrading, so I had to erase the theme, re-add it, and add any changes I knew should be there.

Working now. And I dare say it's a little faster.

We use the Lightspeed Cache module to try to keep the page running relatively smooth. HTTPS can require more system time because of the encryption steps, but ideally things run 'ok'.

The default template set the avatars to be round. When I opened the site this morning I noticed it. That's how I knew you had done an update for us.
I set them back to square.

Teamwork.

I would suggest combining the sports sections since NFL is the only one that sees any action nowadays. I was gonna post on the Alabama game but not sure anyone would see it.

WE HAVE A SPORTS SECTION?

I think most of us like soccer?

I know, IRBS is a big Toronto FC fan.

Always good for when I am having trouble sleeping.
