Jake, when I try to log in via Firefox, I get the following message:

Can't access pulloff on Chrome? "404 forbidden"
|
Chrome

Why can't I access pulloff on Chrome? Neither laptop or phone works. Used a different browser and was able to get to here.... I've cleared cookies, cache, etc. Looks like others are having problems too |

Chrome works on my phone but not on pc. Firefox works, but see other email. I can't sign in on pc w/Firefox. Makes me wonder if Pulloff is hacked. |

Some web bowsers for security purposes may require a web address with a suffix of https instead of the preciously used http.
Pulloffs address is [www.pulloff.com] and it may be getting flagged by those browsers. Pulloff has not been hacked. I use firefox, brave, and chrome as my browsers of choice across my devices and havent had any issue getting on pulloff. |

As Bryan said, some browsers (especially Chrome) add an "s" to the web address. Certain browsers automatically put:
https://www.pulloff.com
but it should only be:
http://www.pulloff.com/
It's a really minor thing, but it's causing tons of problems. There is no "s" in the address. If you remove the "s" the page will load normally. My advice is to bookmark the page without the "s" and you should be set (or use a different browser). Google (Chrome) is trying to force the entire internet to a secure website protocol (even though Chrome is not secure... which is why I won't use Chrome). I'm planning on switching the site over, but honestly it's pretty low on my priority list in life. I don't have anyone's credit card info or any other personal info or data so there's no real need for me to make the change other than the annoying error messages.Jake Morgan Owner, PULLOFF.COM Independent Pulling News This page is a free service.

Your post is pretty vague... what exactly does it say? What error message are you getting and does it give you a warning screen (something telling you that you are entering an unsecure website)?

I don't use Chrome (nobody should because of Googles lack of privacy) but I did just download the latest version to test this morning. It AUTOMATICALLY added the "s" to the address and I got the 404 error (you have to double click on the address to see the "s".. I removed the "s" and hit Enter and it AUTOMATICALLY added it back in again! I did it a third time and it finally worked. (I'm actually using the latest version of Chrome to write this post just to make sure it works)
I found these instructions online: How to stop Google Chrome from automatically redirecting to HTTPS - In a new browser tab, enter URL: chrome://net-internals/#hsts - Scroll down to "Delete domain security policies" and enter pulloff.com There are numerous work arounds for this but the easiest is to just use a better browser. Brave is my browser of choice because it's secure and private. However, Firefox, DuckDuckGo, Opera, Microsoft Edge are probably all better options than Chrome.

I confirmed again today that removing the "s" is a viable workaround in Chrome. |

I have to change browsers; Chrome just puts the "S" back on.... you can't get here using Chrome |

I have the same experience as Mark. Have to use a completely different browser to look at this site. Since all my bookmarks are saved on Chrome, I almost never come here anymore. Maybe this winter I will move everything over to new browser but I personally have not had any problem with Chrome. Still enjoy the site, keep up the good work. |

Re: The HTTP vs HTTPS Problem

Hmmmm

I just posted this using Chrome, no problem for me. |

Good for you. The fact remains its a hassle to get to this site and the lower traffic is very obvious. |

Re: The HTTP vs HTTPS Problem

Currently... Chrome on the computer works fine if you bookmark the page with HTTP instead of HTTPS... but it doesn't work the same on some phones with the latest update of Chrome.
Yeah, it's a bit a a annoyance... but it's a super, super, super/easy workaround.... use Brave, Chrome is crap and unsecure. When the workaround is better than the stock browser it seems like a no-brainer. As for page traffic, it's always lower this time of year... harvest is finishing and there's no real pulling news to talk about. This has been a trend for the past 26 years of doing this page, nothing new for November to be a bit slower. The sky is not falling. Just download the Brave browser and stop using Chrome... it take roughly 30 seconds to copy your bookmarks and everything else over...

It's not Android... it's Google Chrome. There's a whole long thread here about it: [www.pulloff.com]

Download the web browser named Brave in Google Play. You shpuld have no issues logging in through that browser. |

DuckDuckGo was my workaround. I did everything possible to make Chrome work properly. Simply will not accept your web address. |

Yup brave does work but I'd say someone needs to fix this so that Google works which is what everyone uses. But then again I'm no tech guru |

I'm no tech guru either. Google is forcing ALL websites to a secure protocol. I'd love to switch the website over to https but that takes time. I've got tons of projects going on and very little spare time. I'm hoping to make the switch at some point but I have no idea when. Until then people will have to just work around it.

This may have been covered before, if so, I apologize.
Both of my computers will now not connect to this site. I can access from my phone or iPad though. What can I do to remedy this? |

Take the “s” out of “https://“ when typing in the address or change browsers. Most people have had the issue on Google Chrome |

Download the app/browser named Brave and use it to access the site. My phone did an update last week and Chrome became useless to access Pulloff. I already had Brave dowmloaded and didn't miss a beat. |

I had been getting around it by using edge thats on my computer, so it worked ok for a few weeks. Then it didn't, tried taking the S off and it just put it back on. So I used dukduk and found the thread on here that mentioned brave, and I loaded it in and it came in blocked until I manually removed the S and now it works fine again. I can definitely tell the traffic is way down on here since this all went down lol! Prolly good not as many items for sale Lmao! Thanks again for all you do Morgans! |

On your phone or PC?
I'm using Microsoft Edge on my PC to post this message.... you need to remove the "s" from https in the website address (it should be http). As a side note: I'm only using Edge to test this site...
