    Depends on the page that you are on . The game client page or forum pages are not secure . No need for them to be . But if you go to your account page then you will see the secure notification . Thats the only page that needs to be secure . As long as no one has the pass word to your game account then you have nothing to worry about .

    You are secure irregardless of your browser .

    Lonnie is correct. It's a result of Chrome's latest update (vers 68). It now declares http pages as 'not secure' to try to make people aware of what webpages they should not enter sensitive information into.

    If you go to make a purchase it should change to 'secure'.

    This is Google's way of forcing everyone that has a web site to get ssl certificates Which changes your url from http to https.

    ... and as a small addition to that idea, if your site's not showing the green padlock, try going to https://whynopadlock.com, entering your URL in the field and checking the report. It's really useful info.

    This is a bit worrying though, I can login successfully on a page that is 'not secure'...

    ...but if I try to do the same on a 'secure' page my login gets rejected...

    Another thing I've noticed here is that the login in the top picture is a flash object, whereas in the bottom picture it isn't a flash object.

    I think the bottom is a mobile login . Thats why it wont take . I`ve had that problem when trying to login when I get the bottom panel . I click the Play Now and it pulls up the game page and I login from there .

    Cheers Lonnie, that would explain the login area not being flash but surely it should still accept the input if correct. Oh well, just another WGT quirk I guess.  ; )
