    I think you may need to make a few more posts before you can post URLS ;) (I believe it is to prevent spammers from littering up the place)

      I've been getting this warning for ages, along the top the shield with a red cross.

        I don't even know what a URL is!!! :noidea: :heehee: I'm not sure that I'm even interested in it - but the reason I'm not sure is that I don't know what it is. :snorky:

        Is it going to change my life? ;)

        It's actually nice to have someone on here that seems to know something about these things. :thumbsup:

          URL stands for: Uniform Resource Locator (URL). It is the address of a web page.
          For example the GC Home Page URL is ... Gardeners Corner - The Friendly Gardening Forum
          Oops, it automatically changed ... in URL terms it is written https:// gardenerscorner.co.uk/ forums/ (I've added spaces so it doesn't automatically change to text).
          You tell us! Did it? :lunapic 130165696578242 5:

                I'm using Firefox and when I click on the green shield in the address bar it tells me that it is only displaying secure content which is fine by me. You Tube and some BBC pages are similar, not sure it's problem
                The site mentioned by @lurkalot shows a couple of unsecure links.
                Probably need to be fixed Xenoforo so will happen in routine upgrade in due course

                  How do you mean?
                  Thought it was something chrome thought was dodgy and was stopping the site loading.:scratch:

                  I get the option to load unsafe scripts if I want.

                          I'll try uploading a couple of screenshots.

                              If I disable protection I see some adverts, I enable protection they go away. I have no problem with not seeing adverts, quite like it that way. Not sure why being protected is a problem, the only downside is if GC earns a few coppers from the adverts. If Xenforo or the hosting service are missing out on any income they'll fix it quickly enough.

                                I always had an idea it was about ads.
                                Which is why I've never been too bothered.
