    SSL errors

    Does anyone here use SSL on their board with the same webroot?

    I'm having trouble with a trust message concerning "non-secure content" everytime my board loads in SSL mode. There IS a solution, but vBseo doesn't want to cooperate. I have an EV certificate, and it's a big waste if the addy bar won't turn green because of a few non-ssl references in the page code!

    Solution
    Change the Forum URL in the admincp from:
    Code:
    http://www.example.com/
    to
    Code:
    //www.example.com/
    Problem
    The vBseo licensing scheme recognizes the latter as an invalid URL and stops functioning altogether.

    Does anyone know how to modify vBseo so this will work?

    I doubt that this has to to with vbSEO.
    I tried a certificate, too, and what I found out is, that this warning comes from integrated ad scripts. If you use AdSense or similar things please mind that they are not compatible with SSL-encrypted websites.
    Only Google Analytics will work as they offer encrypted access to their scripts.

    Without any ads I was experiencing no SSL-related problems or warnings. They all came from the ads.
    So I have no doubt that vb and vbSEO are 100 % SSL-compatible. Probably you load your YUI directly from YAHOO (it's in the vb-config). This could also be an unencrypted part of your website.
