    They were talking about taking down the main page a while ago. I assume they did?

    beyond.ca takes me to the home page currently. I don't even know the last time I went to that page as I always just go to forums.beyond.ca

    @rage2 , you need to add a port 80 redirect to 443 or https://forums.beyond.ca

    http://beyond.ca gives you the bad request
    http://www.beyond.ca redirects to https://www.beyond.ca
    https://beyond.ca redirects to https://forums.beyond.ca

    Made the same thread last year... looks like about the same time. Wonder if something 'expired'. It has been happening again on the iphone for me as well.

    Whereas a while ago, typing that in used to direct me to forums.beyond.ca without issue.

    Are you able to fix it so it does that again?

    I can't turn off non secure. The redirect is on a shared service and basically disabled http but with that port still open responding with that error. For whatever reason, when you type beyond.ca your browser is going to http first instead of https. My understanding is that browsers have been defaulting to https first when just typing in a domain name so it works for me and most people.

    long story short, I can't fix http. That error is on purpose to route it nowhere.

    Any reason why your browser is defaulting to http instead of https when not specifying?

    Browsers will only route to HTTPS if the domain is on an HSTS preload list. HTTP is the default behaviour otherwise.
    I can eat more hot wings than you.
