13. Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Suggestion for IPS core functionality. It would be awesome to have an ability to Insert external images only by HTTPS, because: Insertion by HTTP causes warnings in the browser's URL bar. Image proxy has some downsides and not always could be a choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Silvester Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 A setting for this was introduced in 4.5.0 The Image Proxy was removed in 4.5 due to inherent security risks that it was no longer worth trying to work around since the adoption of SSL has drastically increased since we introduced the feature.

h2ojunkie Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Just now, Stuart Silvester A setting for this was introduced in 4.5.0 The Image Proxy was removed in 4.5 due to inherent security risks that it was no longer worth trying to work around since the adoption of SSL has drastically increased since we introduced the feature. What about sites that have years of embedded images already? Some of us have been storing those images on our servers for years now. wool old/existing image proxy images we already have saved continue to work, or will all of those stored proxy image break on upgrade?

13. Posted August 30, 2020 Author Share Posted August 30, 2020 Yet another thing causing a big disappointment about IPS is the strange restrictions on the content on this website. 19 hours ago, Stuart Silvester said: A setting for this was introduced in 4.5.0 Thanks. I hope you will add a way to rebuild old content (including user profiles, signatures, etc.) and change existing images from HTTP to HTTPS where it possible. rodege5389, MeMaBlue and Haku2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoffeeCake Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 There seem to be a set of content only available to those with resources published in the Marketplace. I agree that it's an odd choice as there's no mention of it until you come across these embedded things us plebs can't see. But, I see the link above and have not published anything in Marketplace so not sure why you don't see it. It's in the Client Lounge forum. rodege5389 and TDBF 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you, specifically, cannot see the item I linked to then raise a ticket with support because you should be able to see it. Anyway...back to my lasagne.

13. Posted August 30, 2020 Author Share Posted August 30, 2020 (edited) Such restrictions do not benefit the community. An open community is a very cheap, stable, and efficient way to product promotion and user retention. It's funny (and sad at the same time) what IPS still hasn't figured it out. The client lounge could be read-only for not active clients. Contributors section, the same way, could be read-only for those who did not contribute yet, as it has some topics which are useful for those who are just on the way to contribute.
