Strange Forum URL redirect

in Forum and Discord Help
So the real Forum URL (I guess) should be: https://www.ashesofcreation.com/forums/
That is a pretty URL and what you get to after you access this site from https://www.ashesofcreation.com

However, after you are in the forum all the links change to: https://ashesofcreation.vanillacommunities.com



Still not that bad, but when you actually click anything you are redirected to a third URL: 
https://intrepidstudio.staging.wpengine.com

    This is due to the forum software they are currently using, it may be changed back to the "nicer" url at some point :smile:

    @Shunex This thread was "hidden" for some days... it actually got a lot better meanwhile. However there is now a new problem with the SSL Connection. If you open up the forum with https protocol you get this:


    This is ofc kind of a problem and everyone who clicks certain links (for example in email notifications) will see this.

    I had the same problem a few minutes ago. My browser is still saying that https://forums.ashesofcreation.com/... is "Not secure". But hey, what is secure, right? :o
  • ArchivedUserArchivedUser Guest
    @CylverRayne @lexmax no SSL really is not secure. The forum currently only works without it. If you happen to get that message just edit the url and delete the https:// part. You may have to login again after that, but then you should be fine. Problem with login is, that https/http use different sessions. So when you change it either way your session is gone and therefore your login-status.

    dev's know about it and work on it though:

    Nothing is less secure than my grip on sanity!

    But I have​ the same issue. I just won't be giving anyone in here my SS# or credit card. Which is a shame because that was going to be my signature...

         I don't suffer from insanity.  I enjoy every minute of it.

    Still not fixed, and here is a full message with details:



  • ArchivedUserArchivedUser Guest
    Yep, still have it also but I hope it's something Intrepid will sort. The mods are aware of it at least.
  • ArchivedUserArchivedUser Guest
    Still getting this message too. My workplace is currently blocking the site now because of the certificate violation :(
  • ArchivedUserArchivedUser Guest
    Intrepid is aware of the issue and is currently working on it :smile:

    Great stuff. Just in case they are not aware, the problem is even worse on my phone. I can't even bypass the security warning.
