Is something new with the web site, or is it my computer?
The address bar now states "Not Secure - freespiritsrowing.com".
Also, when trying to log in, I do not get suggestions for users or auto fill passwords.
New Problem?

Re: New Problem?
There haven’t been any changes to the site Peter. I just checked while on my travels and my browser tells me that the security certificates are still installed and working.

Saving passwords is something that is done by your browser rather than by any website that you are using. It may be that because the browser is not picking up the certificate, it is not offering to save your password which would not be encrypted when sent to our site.
Is anyone else having any issues? On a PC you can just look in the top left of a browser and you should see a closed padlock which tells you encryption is working.

Re: New Problem?
Thanks Jon. This is what I see.
I just tried with Chrome, and the connection is secure there.

Thanks Peter. It looks like Safari on your Mac is not happy with the setup for some reason. I don’t have a Mac and so can’t test it myself.
There are a number of documented issues that might be causing this at the server end which I will check. I’ll post back here if I find anything. I’m away at the moment and so can’t do anything for now.
As you can see from your second screenshot, the certificates are installed and working on the server and encrypting all traffic, so there is no fundamental issue, just something minor that is upsetting Safari for some reason.
