Enable ssl (e.g. via let's encrypt)? - thacoon - 11-12-2019 Hi, this websites is still using plain http. Is there any intention to switch to https, e.g. using Let's Encrypt? Cheers, thacoon RE: Enable ssl (e.g. via let's encrypt)? - megamarc - 11-12-2019 Hi Thacoon, To be honest I don't have any plans, but I have nothing against considering it either. I don't have deep knowledge about this. I run this forum inside my ISP hosting, they provide a prepackaged installer that set up everything. I manually update it directly from myBB site from time to time. On their documentation there is a chapter about setting up https (https://docs.mybb.com/1.8/administration/security/https/), but it's not a trivial thing, as getting the SSL certificate is just a step in configuration process. This forum doesn't hold any kind of sensitive data so I really haven't considered the need for it. However if someone is willing to do the task, I would grant temporary access to the server files to do the maintenance. RE: Enable ssl (e.g. via let's encrypt)? - megamarc - 12-25-2019 My ISP (Hostinger) doesn't offer Let's encrypt nor SSH access to add it myself. They sell their own SSL certificates, that's the reason. |
