Google Chrome "Scripts from Unauthenticated Sources"

Howdy,

Apologies if this is an extension of the https problem outlined in the notice from Niamh, but I've noticed that today (possibly since the maintenance this morning?) I've been getting a notice in Chrome asking me if I want to run scripts from unauthenticated sources whenever I open a new tab for Boards.

The only effect I've noticed is that it disables Cosy Mode on the site. I can click to allow the scripts to be loaded and issue is resolved.

Again, apologies if this is just an extension of the https issue, it's just been bugging me today so said I'd say it here.

Chrome, Windows 10.

Hi

The reason you are seeing this is because as of this morning Boards is running over https. However vBulletin being what it is, there are still some assets that are being called via http. At the moment we are working on tracking these down and moving them to https also.

The reason your seeing that message is that modern browsers will flag anything called over http from a https enabled site. For the moment it's fine to enable scripts from unauthenticated sources.

Grand job, good to hear it's not just my version of Chrome acting the twat (again...). Thanks for the quick reply.
