Discussion boards don’t handle https links
Severity: minor
Audience: very small
Fiscal effect: not yet — would affect our posting of links to donation screens?
Policy question: no
Reported: no
Link: http://discuss.aauw.org
The discussion boards just seem to be orphaned. Other problems with them have gone unresolved for more than a year. So in the grand scheme of things, this is probably not worth reporting.
But if you try to insert a link to a secure site (e.g. [L=Yugma]https://www.yugma.com/index.php[/L], the system inserts an “http://” at the start of the link which results in an invalid link: http://https://… . In this case, I could change the link to http://www.yugma.com, but that may not always be the case.
