Everything works well using Chrome. I've installed my grandfather's blog and it works well. I've also installed a SMF Test forum for comparison.
https://calvinsummers.comhttps://calvinsummers.com/smftestI went into cPanel to see if i can find and how easy it is to Let's Encrypt. I found it very easily and it was very easy to install. Here's a comparison for the SMF test site using http and https. You can see the differences in the images below using Firefox. Please note that you will not see the same in Chrome! It will not show you the part about not being secure even if you are using http.
The only thing I have to do now is figure out how to make everything on that server default to "https" instead of "http" when someone views any thing on it.
On a side note, SMF is MUCH faster than on ASO Hosting. WP is faster but slower than SMF, which is to be expected. After a few more tests I'll decide if I'll move all of my domains there. So far, I'm very pleased with the hosting and their support! I do wish they had other themes for cPanel besides the paper lantern theme. 8)
EDIT: For changing SMF to https do the following 2 things:
1. Add an .htaccess file to your root folder and add the following to it:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !443
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.example.com/ [R]
2. Run repair_settings.php and change all of the" http" links to" https".
As far as I know you should need to do anything else unless there's a server issue of sorts. I've tried to create a .htaccess in File Manager on Squidix and it never shows no matter what I do so I sent in a ticket...
