didnt have this problem before. started since yesterday

i did not change anything that should create an issue like that. except for removing one ad block and replacing it with another. the false positives are hard to detect.

i should re-block opera. freaking piece of shit.

anyhow the warning is related to insecure content. which should not be happening on the forum.

i do not see any insecure content here:
Xiaomi MIUI 8

Can you check browser console to see which component is being blocked?

so nice of imgur to call image on http in their embedded widget. use bbcode to embed an image. i really cannot do anything about this.

Its weird. imgur image loads perfectly fine.

I would probably disable embedding of Imgur links. Since they are not serving content over https.

Imgur images embed fine because the forum proxies them and serves a copy from https : / / broadbandforum.co. If I disable this feature, every single page with Imgur (and tons other) images would start showing insecure content warning.

This is why if you copy link of any image posted here you would get a long link that would not load outside this forum. All the images are cached and hosted on the forum's own server to avoid mixed content warning.

The Imgur widget on the other hand calls the image over HTTP which causes insecure warning on the forum.

Imgur has been disabled. Freaks. They must be the largest social network not to use HTTPS by default.
