    Hello,

    You say you renewed your domain name? Was it the same one you had before and you just renewed it or you bought a different one? Prior to the renewal did you already have an ssl certificate? If not, how long has it been since you bought the ssl certificate? It can take a few days for it be completely added.

    Finally, what is the url of your forum?

    -Brandon

    Yes I renewed the same name as before. No we didn’t already have a certificate. I think 2 or 3 days ago.

    Try this: turn off the certificate and turn it back again.

    As I said before as well, it also can take a few business days for the certicate to be installed on our end. I would give it until Tuesday, if it is still showing as un secure, then we can make a report for you.

    Most web browsers will say any non https site is 'unsafe', that does not actually mean it is unsafe. You might be getting warnings more now cause the certificate is in process of being installed, I don't know.

    Also you have to make sure any images on the forum are in https, otherwise you will always get warnings even after process is complete. If all images are on servimg then it will automatically go to https when process is complete, if it is on another image host however, you will need to make sure the images are stored on platforms that have https.
