    this new site is telling me that it's not secure. Not being a teccie person at all I saw that on the top address bar when I first came on it said "not secure".
    Then on logging in without a problem there's a letter i inside a circle preceding the site address. Click on that i and it says the site is not secure.
    Is this significant ... I really don't know.

    I'm using Chrome (on MAC) but not seen it so far. I'll try with Firefox (Win10 and Win7) at home tonight.

    It doesn't use HTTPS and even the chrome attachment that forces HTTPS when it can, does not. It really should so hopefully it can be sorted.

    I think chrome has started showing that error for non SSL sites. Dont think we've ever had ssl set up for the site. That doesn't mean we shouldn't though. Will see about getting a cert

    Actually, I've just remembered the CloudFlare service that is still switched on has SSL. I probably just need to flick a switch somewhere in the CloudFlare config.
