Certificate Expired

[blackgothicdoll]

The site certificate expired yesterday. People will get warnings if their browsers are configured to do so, or not be able to access the site at all.

Does that mean LHC won't exist any more?

Lol no! The certificate is signed so that browsers can trust it and send data encrypted, to protect information. An expired certificate means that browsers won't trust it, but the site can still be visited (though some people's browsers will not let them bypass a security warning, these are the people who won't be able to access the site).

All they have to do is renew the certificate and everything will be same as usual. It looks like this is only an issue on longhaircommunity.com, forums.longhaircommunity has no problem.

Oh, thank goodness! Lol! I haven't had any trouble accessing the forum the last couple of days.

I had trouble accessing this site today. My protection is making it hard to get here now.

Can we at least get some re-assurance that someone is working on this?

Read my above post, I called out which domain has an expired certificate. I mentioned that forums.longhaircommunity does not.
