#27141 Https for Virtual HOST

[Kennard Consulting]

Hi,

My project https://sourceforge.net/projects/metawidget has the domain metawidget.org / www.metawidget.org pointing to https://metawidget.sourceforge.net/ , but this only works for e.g. http://metawidget.org/ . Is it possible please to make https://metawidget.org/ work also?

This isn't a particularly high priority - my website doesn't deal with any user data - but I note that Chrome has started "shaming" http sites as insecure, so it seems good practice to do this.

Thanks!
Richard

Thanks for the update.

Can you please explain why my site cannot be converted? I only ask because this ticket was done...

https://sourceforge.net/p/forge/feature-requests/639/

...and also this ticket...

https://sourceforge.net/p/forge/site-support/18941/

...suggets some things I have already done (i.e point DNS to 216.105.38.11 (or a CNAME record to vhost2.sourceforge.net) )

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out!

I understand that you're experiencing an issue with your Vhost not being HTTPS.

At this time, we’re unable to offer that feature to all hosted projects, and unfortunately, your project doesn’t meet the current qualifications.

We encourage you to keep working on your project, expand your user base, and make regular updates. With continued effort, we’re confident that it will grow and become eligible for the feature in the future.

Sincerely,
SourceForge Support
