They both work fine for me. I take this as a good thing. Especially since I have really no idea what the difference would mean.

Exactly my thoughts. Both sites are working fine for me.

Some consumer/consumer accessible (hospital, etc) ISPs are censoring Elliquiy. This will make that less likely.

Some ISPs are inappropriately caching things on Elliquiy. This makes that impossible.

Worked fine on my laptop and phone.

https://elliquiy.com

Works for you, then all would be well. If it doesn't, (but http://elliquiy.com works) then let me know here, please.

Worked for me, took me right to the opening page and a entered with no problem.

https does not work on my computer, but if there's something simple I need to do to fix that, let me know (and I'll need someone to walk me through it, because I'm really computer naive).

Could you add securecookie to that and check to make sure it works, please?

<ruleset name="Elliquiy">
  <target host="www.elliquiy.com" />
  <target host="elliquiy.com" />

  <rule from="^http://(www\.)?elliquiy\.com/" to="https://elliquiy.com/"/>
  <securecookie host="^(\.)?elliquiy\.com$" name="(ElliSMFCookie11|PHPSESSID)" />
</ruleset>


This seems to work just fine for me. No oddities so far.

https works from here

I've had an HTTPSEverywhere rule forcing https access site-wide ever since I joined E, and it works fine except for uploading files to the wiki. I have to turn it off and use http to get that to work.


https @ the wiki worked also, but i didn't try the uploading of any files.

I'm fine with going all https, but I hope you fix the bug with private messages. When I click on the new private messages it continues to be new messages even after I read them and sent replies. I also get a pop up that asks if I want to load unsafe parts of the website.

Other than that I didn't encounter any problems and from what I read https has some huge benefits.

There a window will appear and you should copy the Elliquiy.xml file inside the HTTPSEverywhereUserRules folder. Then restart your browser. These instructions of course are specific for Windows. Not sure how it's done on OS X or any other OS but it boils down to putting the ruleset in the folder where user rules are stored, and restarting the browser (or alternatively disabling and re-enabling HTTPS Everywhere).
I have Firefox 23.0.1 and I don't have a "Open Containing Folder" in the "Application Basics" section.

I do have a "Profile Folder" button but when selecting that it opens Firefox's profiles folder.

Am I in the right place?

There isn't a "HTTPSEverywhereUserRules" folder either.

Why not? as long as you have a web browser on it and an internet connection. Hell, you could probably get on with a Wii too.

Both have web browsers on them.  Granted, the 360 is using IE.  I've not done so in a long, long time, but I'm game for giving it a whirl in case it can be done.  Then I'll just need to get a wireless keyboard and mouse that can stand up to the occasional defiant Kaylee cat deciding to walk across my lap...

Ah I can even plug a wireless keyboard into the USB? I am just wondering in case a PC ever fails - and I need my fix.

Do you have the HTTPS Everywhere addon installed?

This Firefox add-on can be downloaded and installed from here: ( It does not appear to be available directly from Mozilla's add-on page )

Yeah, before the cat, I used to have a damn nice set up where I could quickly enter passwords and such for things on it instead of having to use the controller and that fun keyboard interface...

I didn't have it installed. The OP didn't say anything about having any plug-ins added. I've done so now and its all working beautifully. Thank you very much!
