    Default New site address?

    Is someone going to let us know on this forum what the new forum address is? I have been unable to get into Wings for a day or two. I get NET::ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALID messages and I cannot get past them. I am glad it is not happening with Sails but not sure how long we can use this forum.

    There should be a line about "Help Me Understand" at the bottom. Click that, then click "Proceed Anyway (unsafe)."

    Thanks DB. I can do that but every menu selection loops back to the error message and the warning about being unsafe. I think I will leave the site alone for the time being.

    I have the same Problem with Wings at the moment.
    I have spoken to Keith and it is the same problem we get every time the SSL certificate is renewed.

    Here is his reply to my message.

    Hello Rob,
    Hopefully later today I will have time to work with our host tech support to get the issue resolved. I already know what the problem is, our SSL cert just renewed and for whatever reason, it never auto updates. If you use the Chrome browser, it should give you the option to continue to the site after several warnings. There is no actual security concerns... well, any more than there always is online.


    However my Firefox is having nothing to do with the site and will not allow me to accessit at this time.

    SSL Cert never auto-updating sounds like a bad hoster to me. Isn't that crap what you PAY them for?

    I am thinking that maybe it was hoped that the site could have been migrated to a new host before the security stuff needed to be renewed? Maybe the cost of renewing is more than is wanted at this stage.
