Hi David,

Glad you got it sorted.

This afternoon I did more work on the two sites of mine with embedded Nabble forums and https enabled.

It turns out the draft I let Gary see was inadequate. I can report that the version I plan to publish within the next day or two on GregHelp will list seven steps to the process of getting https to work and offer some explanation/description about each one. The steps will be:

1.    Register a Domain Name for Your Site
2.    Set Up a Subdomain
3.    Obtain a Digital Certificate
4.    Set Subdomain to Point to Nabble Server
5.    Set Subdomain to be Used by Forum
6.    Post a Message on Nabble Support
7.    Set Requests to Redirect to https

Unlike a good number of Nabble users I code my sites locally and then upload the material to a hosting service, rather than use an online WYSIWYG site builder site like Weebly.

It means I have to do things a little differently to many, so I'll certainly welcome contributions on how to edit my notes to provide information that works for the majority who post on Nabble Support - before you forget which bits caused you problems and you begin to think it wasn't so difficult after all!
Volunteer Helper - but recommending that users move off the platform!
Once the admin for GregHelp now deleted.
