Hosting Service woes

URL has been changed to accommodate some issues with the SSL security certificate which proved too annoying to deal with. The problem is that WordPress provides free SSL certificates to every website on this hosting service— until very recently, they covered subdomains as well as domains.

And now they don’t.

So, when the domain’s SSL certificate came up for renewal, I couldn’t renew the subdomain’s certificate. Not without making changes which would cost a whole lot of money. Which would be a silly thing to do for a simple blog site.

Anyway, if something doesn’t work quite right, just leave a comment. I’m still testing and moving things around.

EDIT– Working on reconfiguring things and redirecting links. If you see anything broken, please let me know.

Site issue

Your browser may give you some kind of weird warning about a security certificate.

I’m aware of the issue– this site is a subdomain and apparently now requires a different type of certificate. Which of course the web hosting company was willing to sell to me at an awe-inspiring price, of course.

The domain owner and I will be fixing this little issue once they are back from travel.

Sadly, there are no hackers here waiting to trawl through and steal your data, whatever it might happen to be.

No matter what Marcus says, that would be way too upscale for this place.

Visitor privacy

EDIT:

Still trying to address an odd bug in the comment feature section. A visitor alerted me that they were able to see another visitor’s email address– not on the comment section itself, but in the fill-in forms. After some friends and I conducted tests, we were able to replicate the problem, which seems to occur only intermittently.

For now, feel free to leave comments without leaving an email address.  If you do leave one, please make sure it’s a throwaway.  Curiously, I don’t know why the site insisted on an email address being entered, since I had that functioning turned off.

I’m unlocking the moderation so that I can keep testing and I have a cookie system up to help keep any possible spam bots at bay.

 

Any concerns, feel free to send me a message at syllisjehane… well, you know how spambots are, and I’m pretty sure you all know what a hot mail address looks like by now.
