Re-write HTTPS warning message in block pages #396

Closed edjw closed 5 years ago

edjw commented 5 years ago

This is the banner message we present when someone requests an https URL. See a page like this one for an example: https://www.blocked.org.uk/site/https://theguardian.com

We should re-write it to make more sense to non-technical users.

Parental control filter systems can have difficulty providing human readable responses for HTTPS requests, due to certificate errors.

@dantheta @JimKillock – How about something like this instead of the above?

We can't get reliable results for web addresses starting with https://. [See accurate results for the http:// version of this address]() instead.

Looks good to me.

dantheta commented 5 years ago

I've added this here: https://www.blocked.org.uk/site/https://theguardian.com.

Should we add a FAQ entry with a more detailed explanation of why this happens (and that HTTPS highlights the ISP filter's interference)

Thanks Dan. There seems to be an empty <div class="row> above that message. Can you remove it from the template or make it conditional if something sometimes goes there?

Yes to the FAQ entry. Preferably with an anchor link to the entry. Then we can put some small text in a slightly less black colour at the bottom of the warning message that says "More info" which is linked to the FAQ entry

dantheta commented 5 years ago

I've removed the row, added a FAQ entry to modx resource 9783, and added a "more info" link pointing to it. The text of the FAQ entry will definitely need revising.

Thanks Dan, the FAQ entry isn't showing up for me yet
