Getting a red NOT Secure notice
Jan 30th, 2019, 3:01pm
 
Greetings!
 
I've logged in as an artist and was planning to upload a new design, but I'm seeing a RED not secure warning.  Anyone know what's going on with this?  (Using Google Chrome.)
 
Thanks,

I just checked to make sure that I'm using the the most updated version of Chrome, turns out I needed an update, but, I'm still getting a RED not secure message.
 
Thanks!

Penny,
 
First make sure you give your browser permission to safely visit GCU as a safe site.
 
Secondly, make sure your URL has https:// in front of it not http://

Hey, Doreen,
 
Yes, it's https:// rather than http:// upon landing on the homepage,  
upon login
on the artist page, it's http://artist.greetingcarduniverse.com
 
I vaguely remember something like this coming up before and Shaun explained it.
 
In any event, I'm perplexed as I've not experienced this not secure warning, in red no less.
 
Thanks!

An update.  Using Firefox and no† getting a security warning.  Guessing that it's some issue with Chrome?  But I would appreciate it if someone from GCU could check into this for me?
 
Thanks!

You're right. It's not secure and I've never seen "artist.greetingcarduniverse" before. Maybe I've just never noticed.
But I've never seen the big red "Not Secure"before in the browser line. As I type this, I have the warning.
Logging off for now...

On Chrome... the GCU site is not secure on the main page and signing in. On Safari, the main page is secure, but once you sign in, it doesn't appear to be. If a browser indicates it's not secure, I never enter my password.

Using Internet Explorer and NO warnings. Staying away from Chrome for the mean time.

Must be a Chrome issue. I only use Firefox for all POD site work and I have not seen anything you've seen on Chrome. If you wish to use Chrome, you'll no doubt need to 'white list' GCU URL's.

That makes sense, Doreen.
