Hello, i'm running my site in complete SSL

I'm having problems using [Gravatar] token, it's rendering a no SSL link and the browsers show a message, saying that in the page are mixed content.

I see in http://en.gravatar.com/site/implement/images/ at the end

Secure Requests

If you're displaying Gravatars on a page that is being served over SSL (e.g. the page URL starts with HTTPS), then you'll want to serve your Gravatars via SSL as well, otherwise you'll get annoying security warnings in most browsers. To do this, simply change the URL for your Gravatars so that is starts with:

https://secure.gravatar.com/...

This is exactly my case...

Exists some token to do this?

if not, can you make some type of token in news Articles for this? some similar to [SSLGRAVATARURL]

Thanks

I can fix this issue in the next release by auto-adding SSL if the current request is SSL.

Actually, I just looked closer.  It looks like you are creating the url with the https, but gravatar uses a different domain name for their ssl requests.  Instead of www.gravatar.com they use secure.gravatar.com.

Can you adjust to account for this?

Thanks

Hi Scott,

Any progress on this item?  I've got a production site running with all gravatar images broken.

Thanks,

Dave Green

Can you try upgrading to the most recent release? 00.07.99 (available on downloads page)

It should work OK

objLiteral.Text = AddHTTP("www.gravatar.com/avatar/" & MD5CalcString(objArticle.AuthorEmail.ToLower()))

HI Scott,

I downloaded and installed the latest .0.7.99 version yesterday with no luck.  I think the issue is that gravatar doesn't serve the secure traffic with the same domain name.  Instead of www.gravatar.com, they use secure.gravatar.com.  Can you change to reference this name instead?  That should take care of it.

Thanks,

David Green
