Smileys and HTTPS

Hi,

I’m a lapsed member.

Everything has been good but we just moved to HTTPS on site. I find that most of the forum works fine after changing the permalink in integration option except smileys. The smileys are still coming up as HTTP so I have a mixed content issue on my site.

Because of this one thing I had to install a plugin to change HTTP to HTTPS on the fly. Kind of a bummer.

Anyway thought I would bring it to your notice and hope for a fix.

well, afraid you will manually need to adjust any urls in post content from http to https…  smileys are simply just images in post content and as such have a url in them…  post content is fixed when its saved, sot there really is no way to change from http to https on the fly…

its a simple db search and replace on the sfposts table to replace http to https for your domain…

as an fyi, we do have an open ticket to research and see if we can find a better way to handle image urls in post content, but no sure fire method has been found to date…
