Selected elements in Design View, on remote sites, no longer highlighted

Wappler General Bugs

Just to add - if your remote host is going through HTTPS instead of plain old HTTP, you won’t have this problem at all.

So make sure your remote sites are secured with SSL and address starts with https://

This is a requirement this days as Google Chrome even bans sites using just http without encription.

if you don’t have a certificate, you can always get one for free from:

So what you are saying is that this will not be fixed? this creates an issue for me going forward as our dashboards are all internal and no need for SSL at this time. I don’t see the connection between SSL and selecting elements in Design View. What is the danger of having things selectable in Design View when not SSL?

Also, I looked into this the other day, it does require a business license so not free for everyone, especially a person like me doing this to learn and help others as part of a hobby.

Hi Brad,

see:

and:

So, there will be a solution. And no, it is not a restriction by us.

But I’m looking for a clear answer ti if there will be a fix for this. I am aware of the workaround but to start Wappler like that every time is a bit of a pain. I totally get that Google has a thing for SSL. My point is that not all projects are public websites and not meant to be searched. I also quite often do up temporary sites to test something before I do it live on a dashboard. I can’t have SSL set up for every little temporary site that might only be up for a few hours. Or even minutes …

Of course Brad, temporary solution means that is a solution until we release a fix for this…
