          SSL Security (https://steampathways.org)
          Attempted to setup SSL certificate with our webhost, unfortunately with our host this would cost $25/year as they aren’t providing me a mechanism to install a 3rd party (free) SSL cert. I feel since we aren’t asking for secure info, orders, etc this is acceptable to leave it with the “Not secure” warning.

              I would be happy to donate the $25 for a year to secure the site.

                  Great!!! Thank you. Oh, one other reason for using SSL/https even if not collecting so called personal data, is that the protocol provides a secure ‘pipeline’ to and from any given website making hijacking / redirection less likely. So, it’s not just private data sensitivity, it’s the connection itself.

                  I have a question about posting here on the forum. Do we all get an email when a new post is posted?

                      Yes David it will allow you to “subscribe” to individual topics or the entire website. You must be logged in below, and then if you click the “subscribe” link in the upper right of a topic or the root, it will send you emails on posts to those topics/all
