We are using SSL for the forum, but we are seeing that avatar images that are not SSL are not showing anymore. Regular images that are not SSL are still showing.

The user oakes has a avatar picture but it is not SSL.

Avatars that do not use an HTTPS link to them will not be shown on forum post pages.

This is to prevent warnings in web browser that content within the page is not secure as all elements within the page including images need to use HTTPS links for then page to be considered as secure by the browser.

In order for the avatar to show next to the post when SSL is enabled in Web Wiz Forums the member would need to change their avatar to use an HTTPS:// link to the avatar.
