SSL

Have a look at https://www.godaddy.com/community/SSL-An...td-p/50372

I think there should be a setting somewhere in your forum admin settings for web site URL, I’d start with that and change the http to https in it. You may also need to add to a .htaccess file to force HTTPS 

https://htaccessbook.com/htaccess-redirect-https-www/

Also check any custom code you may have on your pages that may still be trying to access something on “http://waterlooregionconnected.com/stuff” and change that to https also

Bingo!  That solved the theme issue.

Now I just need to take care of the redirect.  Like Taylortbb said, if just entering waterlooregionconnected.com in, you're all set, it goes to HTTPS automatically.  The issue is if you type in www.waterlooregionconnected.com, that's still an issue for me I think.

That's where the .htaccess thing in my other link should help

My http bookmark is now sending me to the https site! Looks good.

Thanks for the feedback!

does your bookmark include WWW?

My bookmark includes www and is redirecting to https fine

Looks good to me now. Redirected to https and no errors popped up

I'm not seeing the redirect on http://www.waterlooregionconnected.com/index.php , confirmed by loading the page via curl. So I think there's still something missing for the redirect setup.

What do you mean by "juice?"

My bookmark is http://www.waterlooregionconnected.com/s...on=unreads and it redirected to https. Yours didn't though for some reason

As of just now, the site is not serving a redirect:
