Topic: Forum login via HTTPS ?

By the way, is it somehow possible to log into this forum via HTTPS? I tried to specify https://forum.tuxfamily.org/login.php manually in my browser, but the "submit" button always points to a non-secure page. Using passwords via a non-secure connection might be ok from my home machine, but it feels very wrong when using a public web access while I am away...

Humm, this used to work with previous punbb releases, now the action field of the login form contains the full HTTP URL instead of an absolute link,
<form ... action="http://forum.tuxfamily.org/login.php">

We need to check how to "fix" that :)

Fixed, removed useless $base_url configuration directive, thank for reporting it ;-)
