Forum Page Seems to be Condensed

[DungeonmasterCal]

Where I could see all the different topics I had set up now I only see a condensed version of the site with just the general headings listed.

I had that as well. Refreshing didn't fix it, but clicking on the "Forums" part of the "Community/Forums" link at the top of the page seemed to - despite appearing to be the same address.

Ok, thanks.

Haven't confirmed it but I bet the http page can't make the https forum call.

I sort of understand that from a job I had in 2000-2001. I wonder if the devs are aware of it.

If I were right and that was the problem--you wouldn't want that happening, you'd want to redirect the original forum request from HTTP to HTTPS. Looks like I was wrong, though, and that's not quite the issue. Instead, what's happening is that we're visiting bookmarks with secure.paizo.com addresses and the new site wants us to be visiting paizo.com without the "secure" subdomain. Delete "secure." and leave "https://paizo.com/community/forums" in your browser and the call starts working again.

I think the right approach here would be to add redirects to paizo.com from secure.paizo.com (I mean, hopefully it's that easy!) and with luck the team could get that out and live pretty soon.

Disclaimer, though: I'm taking a completely superficial look at this, so take it with a grain of salt. There are certainly enough things that could complicate this to make it not as easy a fix as I'm hoping.

This issue should be resolved. Thanks for giving us notice.

Terminalmancer was in the ballpark - the issue stemmed from a bug in our HTTPS-everywhere implementation, which was fixed this morning.
