Migrating to FTH4

Your club admin received the instructions to update their admin password to access FTH4. (FTH3 admin passwords will NOT work in FTH4). Follow the instructions in the email and use 'Member sign in' in the top right corner to access the Club Admin account.

If you are not sure who the club admin is, in your member account; look at 'Club Officers and Members' > "Club Email addresses". The LAST item in this list is the person who is currently listed as your club admin.

If this is not correct, please complete and submit this form to change your club admin:

Also, In case no one has brought up this issue, and perhaps it's related but when logging in to the Website - as Administrator or regular member - I get a message saying that site is not secure. Oddly enough it started after we were switched to HTTPS?

Thank you again!

Ok, you cannot have it both ways. :pinch:

You either need to stop including insecure content if you intend to use https: (which will get rid of the FireFox warning) or you need just use http: and put up with the warning.

Although the security warning is coming from FireFox when using http:, this is a mixed content issue with your content--you need to fix your content if you wish to use https:.

Hi Steve,

thank you for your help and sorry for the misunderstanding. I'm the furthest thing from a techie so all of this is like gobbledy-gook lingo to me. I fell into the Admin role and have used trial and error etc. to learn how to do even basic updates on our website. IFrame is my proudest accomplishment so far lol B)

So, clarify about mixed content, I'm not trying to do both things - I just didn't understand the connection although I've learned quite a bit about http vs https from reading through this forum.

Thank you again to everyone who provides support to us non-techie types. I imagine it's not easy :silly: Cheers!

You are not alone in this... sorry if I was a bit hard on you... I am getting bit frustrated because I cannot figure out how to make some of this stuff any simpler, but I would like to. :S

The catch is when you switch to https, browsers generally expect just about everything in your website to use secure access. They will complain about or take measures about some things more than other things, but generally if you have any insecure content when using https for your website, you can expect some problems.

If you district website cannot be accessed using https you will need to drop the iframe and just link to the District webpage you are including in the iframe. Not exactly what you want to do. When you district website can be accessed using https then you can add the iframe again.
Thank you,
