Hi again. After a few hours, I finally managed to set things up and the forum is working perfectly now, except the privacy status of the domain. It was secure for a while using Let’s Encrypt, however it keeps going back to Your connection is not private from time to time and then secure again. Is th…

Great, glad that everything is working now. I was just about to reply back saying I’d opened every category page and couldn’t reproduce this. [afbeelding] calebs: Also, how do we make sure we won’t have issues with future content posted by users? You shouldn’t have to do anything. The only t…

[afbeelding] calebs: however it keeps going back to Your connection is not private from time to time and then secure again Can you be more specific here? Does it become secure again without any action on your part? Or do you do something to make it secure again? [afbeelding] calebs: howe…

That’s very strange. Have you enabled the force_https site setting? It sounds like you’re still able to load the site via HTTP, which would show the “Your connection is not private” warning. Enabling the force_https site setting will ensure all access to the site is over HTTPS, and thus secure.

Did you install Discourse by following the official install guide ? If yes, the site setting is already enabled and hidden. The warning could be coming from something else, like an insecure image on a page (mixed content warning). The next time your site loads as not private, please open your browse…

Yes, I’ve followed the official guide, after being told not to use a 3rd party one. It just randomly appears and disappears, without taking any action. I haven’t posted any images/content yet.

It’s hard to say. If the official guide was followed, Let’s Encrypt was enabled by entering an email at the specified time during ./discourse-setup, and you haven’t uploaded any images/content, this should not be occurring. Are you able to link to your site?

Thanks for the link. At the moment I can’t access the site, perhaps due to Plugin installation went wrong ? Selecting a droplet with a small amount of memory should not cause the site to crash, assuming swap was enabled on the server (discourse-setup will do this for you). I can try to continue looki…
