This would most likely also be wanted for logins as well.

It's really difficult supporting both http and https. All applications would need protocol-relative urls, etc. If we pass everything through fastly we can have them add the certificate. We'll also need a cert for https://webplatform.org/. 77564 2 jonathan 2012-10-31 20:39:51 +0000 So is it worth moving to HTTPS only? I personally don't think so. 77565 3 jonathan 2012-10-31 20:40:20 +0000 Sorry, switched status and forgot to switch back to new. 77568 4 rlane32 2012-10-31 20:45:26 +0000 Either we do https only or we don't support https. It's incredibly difficult supporting both modes properly. MediaWiki can handle it thanks to Roan and I's work last year for implementing it on wikipedia, but wordpress definitely can't handle it. I'm betting most of our other software can't either. 77569 5 jonathan 2012-10-31 20:47:47 +0000 Then I will mark as WONTFIX due to technical issues. If HTTPS support is *really* an issue then we can re-assess later.
