SSL Update

Previous Entry Add to Memories Tell a Friend Next Entry
Hey everyone! Committed a TON of code today and moved a lot of things on the site to SSL. Soon we will redirect all links to SSL, hopefully that will go well. Please let me know if you see anything broken that wasn't broken before.
  • All my custom icons for journals/communities aren't working and are displaying the default IJ tiny icon! I checked Imgr and my links are still good.
    • Ok thanks, can you give me a link and describe what it should look like
      • The trick suggested below works for me, but originally it looked like this instead of the override icons. And now my journal layout is breaking like this, which started sometime today.
      • IDK what you just did, but the layout problem seems to have resolved itself!
    • Hey, random stranger popping in to say this is probably gonna be because the tiny icons are set to replace the http images. You should be able to fix it just by replacing the http with https in the urls of what's targeted, I think. At least, when I used the developer tools in my browser to test on your friend page, it worked.

      So, basically, to use one section as an example because I don't want to spam this journal (your code is very long), you'd alter

      .ljuser img[src="http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif"] {
      width: 0!important;
      height: 0!important;
      background-repeat: no-repeat !important;
      background-image: url(https://i.imgur.com/SZRH6xd.png) !important;
      padding: 7px 9px 5px 4px !important;
      }


      into

      .ljuser img[src="https://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif"] {
      width: 0!important;
      height: 0!important;
      background-repeat: no-repeat !important;
      background-image: url(https://i.imgur.com/SZRH6xd.png) !important;
      padding: 7px 9px 5px 4px !important;
      }


      to fix the userhead replacement icons. Do similarly to the others that are broken, just changing the http to https in the "img[...]" section of the code, which tells it what to target. In theory, that should fix the problem.
      • Thanks! I will give this a try when I get home from work!
      • Thank you! It fixed that problem, but now the formatting of my journal layout is wonky lol.
        • Eek! I'll give it a look-see, compare it to the base layout you used, and see if I can track down what went wrong, since it happened after following my advice. Sorry about the broken layout!
          • Oh, no! It happened sometime today before I changed to the https! I think it's just a result of all the moving around and what not.
            • Oh, okay, good. ^^; I did go through and compare, though, and aside from where you'd changed colours and sizing, I don't really see anything that should be causing the wonkiness on the CSS side. I even tried replacing the CSS with the base layout, and it has the same thing going on, so I think it may be one of those layouts where you absolutely have to have a journal title and/or subtitle for it to display properly.

              If you'd rather not have one, though, you should be able to do a quick-and-dirty fix by changing the appropriate section of coding to:

              #alpha-inner {width: 630px; padding: 0px; background: white; padding: 10px; min-height: 120px; margin-bottom: 10px; }
              #beta-inner { width: 650px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;background: #transparent; }


              Not sure how that would potentially impact it if you do add a title/subtitle, so just remove the "min-height: 120px; margin-bottom: 10px;" from #alpha-inner's bit, if it messes anything up. That's all I added to the coding there.

              Other than that, I did notice ".comments { width: 6000px;}" which based on the other sizes you used, I think may have been intended as 600 instead of 6000. Just wanted to let you know, just in case.
            • One more thing! Add anywhere in your code:

              .entry {margin-bottom: 10px;}

              and it should make the entries spaced out (tested in Firefox Developer Edition, so YMMV). I think the original may have had closer to 20px padding, but I just used that because it's what I added in the header snippet I gave. That should get you close to being in the spirit of the original layout and not gone wonky, assuming that the spacing and such is what you meant. My apologies if not!
              • I know it's definitely not one of the ones that need a title, but the additional margin thing got the body of the layout back to normal! I'm going to try and play around to get the header back to the normal size.

                Thanks so much for your help!
                • No problem, glad to help. Good luck getting everything exactly how you want it! And feel free to give me a nudge if you get stuck. I'm not the greatest at CSS, but I can usually puzzle out how to fix things.
  • same as the comment above - every time i try to post a comment, it tells me my login cookie was lost
    • Is this issue tied to a specific web browswr or plugin?
      • Can you please send me a screenshot of the error?
        • here you go
          • I am having the same exact problem on this journal.
          • Can you do two things. Get a screenshot of the comment form before you try to comment. Send me a txt file with the source of the site before you try to comment.

            Also please try to delete all cookies and website data and see if the problem continues. I am having a hard time duplicating this issue which is making it very hard to see why it's happening.
          • I had the same problem too but it seems to happen to me on chrome on my computer but not when I comment from my phone.
      • perhaps it’s because it’s because i use chrome on my desktop. the site barely loads on chrome on my phone. give me a few and i’ll see about getting a screenshot of the error
        • You need to delete all of your cookies and site data from the browser. We've had a few users report this problem and that fixed it for them.
  • My custom layout got messed up. The journal and community icons on the friends page portion of it have gone from tiny icons to giant-sized icons. They should be tiny icons. screenshot of it. It happens on both firefox and chrome.
    • Random stranger popping in to offer help. You should be able to fix that problem by altering the relevant portion of your coding into:

      .ljuser img[src*="/img/userinfo.gif"], .entry-header h3 img[src*="/img/userinfo.gif"] { width: 0!important; height: 0!important; background-repeat: no-repeat !important; background-image: url(https://imgur.com/XWb13KU.png) !important; padding: 6px !important; background-size: 8px}

      .ljuser img[src*="/img/community.gif"], .entry-header h3 img[src*="/img/community.gif"] { width: 0!important; height: 0!important; background-repeat: no-repeat !important; background-image: url(https://imgur.com/PwCsvwN.png) !important; padding: 6px !important; background-size: 8px}

      .pic-poster img[src*="/img/userinfo.gif"], .pic-poster img[src*="/img/community.gif"] { width: 0!important; height: 0!important; background-repeat: no-repeat !important; background-image: url(https://imgur.com/JlGeD0c.png) !important; padding: 0px !important; background-size: 8px}

      .lj-entry-securityicon img[src*="/img/icon_private.gif"] {width: 0!important; height: 0!important; background-repeat: no-repeat !important; background-image: url(https://imgur.com/pan5Pr7.png) !important; padding: 5px !important; background-size: 8px}

      .lj-entry-securityicon img[src*="/img/icon_protected.gif"] { width: 0!important; height: 0!important; background-repeat: no-repeat !important; background-image: url(https://imgur.com/4Dhntrk.png) !important; padding: 5px !important; background-size: 8px}


      Basically, the images are now https instead of http. You could also just add the s to the target images, but doing it this way makes it target either one and could possibly cause less issues down the road.

      I tested this with the developer tools in my browser and it appeared to work, so hopefully it'll work when you use it!
  • Chrome is very broken on my end. I can't make comments anymore without being logged out. Firefox works fine but I rarely use that browser. :/
    • You need to delete all of your cookies and site data from the browser. We've had a few users report this problem and that fixed it for them.
  • It looks like it's now impossible to reach the userinfo page on every journal.
  • Every /profile page I try to get to comes up with this error.
  • I'm not experiencing the 'profiles won't load' issue others reported, but they are taking longer to load than they probably should and so are userpic pages.
  • most fonts hosted off site are broken even though the fonts themselves are working and the coding is fine
    • You need to make sure any CSS or other links to offsite resources are using https not http going forward. Your browser it probably rejecting non-secure resources.
      • they are using https as far as i'm aware but i'll double check and keep you posted! thanks for the response!
      • sorry for the double comment. that does fix it, thank you so much!
  • UNTHREAD FOLDER.

    If you're using a Thread Unfolder, you'll need to edit the code to https from the current http, and then it'll work again!
  • Every single preview icon in my icon journal layout (this username) is showing up as a broken image. It's been like that since early afternoon (GMT) yesterday, and it still hasn't improved. I've cleared my cache/cookies twice, hard refreshed, and obviously between then and now I've shut down my computer and started it up again, with no change.

    Please don't tell me I have to change all of the image links from http to https because that is thousands of image links I'll have to go through and change and I can't imagine anything more frustrating or inconvenient.
    • Okay, amend that to every single icon/image in my icon journal. What gives?
      • It might just be me, but the icons and previews somehow work on my end if I open the set.
        • That's the really weird thing for me too. It only works, I believe, if you use my cut text, which is set as a default (via coding) to visit the http version of the page. If you click the "link" button or enter the page by any other means, you get taken to the https version, where every image is broken :/
          • Ah crap, just noticed that. I hope there will be an easy fix :(
            • I hope so too :( Every single icon journal I've checked so far this morning is having the exact same problem.
  • Minor thing compared to many others, but the search box is coming up as not secure. JSYK.
  • I am still having the cookie problem even after doing everything you've suggested to the others. I am using Avast's web browser.
  • still getting notification in gmail that the submission form is not secure and a full page block/warning that the site is not secure.
