Description Robin Pepermans (SPQRobin) 2011-11-28 19:00:37 UTC
It would be nice if there was an easy way to go from http to the same page on the secure site, and the other way around. E.g. a footer link like the one we have for going to the page on the mobile site.

'Switch to secure site' 'Switch to OMG ALL YOUR COOKIES BELONG TO ME site' :P :)
Comment 2 John Du Hart 2011-11-29 22:05:25 UTC
That would completely ruin caching, unless implemented as a gadget.
Comment 3 Platonides 2011-11-29 22:06:46 UTC
That's trivial to add. I had never seen that mobile link, btw.

I understand.. I don't know much javascript but this was simple enough to make myself :) https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-otherProtocol.js

I will still have to wait for the shared gadget repository to be able to use it easily on all wikis.

(Marking as fixed, as I'm happy now :p.)
Comment 5 Platonides 2012-01-01 23:25:48 UTC
I'd internatiolaise the http/https as secure/insecure instead of showing the raw protocols in the message.
