Nonsecure coolection of passwords say Google search console

Hello,

I am using the newspaper theme and it is Super!

I recently got e-mail from Google search console saying that my site is not secure and that Chrome version 56 and later will mark my pages as “non secure” and that i need to use https to solve the problem.

Ok, i am not selling anything, i dont have e-mail subscription, no other users are allowed to sign up (from wordpress backend) just me (admin). How come there is a problem?

You can see my site at diyetpro.com, i dont use the top bar so there is no signup link, but in the mobile version i see that when menu link is clicked there is signup link, maybe this is creating a problem?

You see i dont want to buy SSL for this issue! How can we fix the problem, how can we hide the signup link in the mobile version, without using “tagdiv mobile plugin”? Or is there

Hello,

Unfortunately there is nothing to be done about google’s decision. Any site that requires a login form will have to move to ssl otherwise the browser will show a ‘not secure’ message in the upper left of the site. If you need users to login to your site, you will need to move to ssl. If not, you can simply deactivate the theme login and the not safe message will not show up.

Thank you!

Yes, the thing is that i cannot deactivate the theme login?!? Where do i do it? I have:

General Settings>Membership not ticked, meaning that no one can register, where else is there an option that i can turn off?

regards.

Glad it worked out!.
There is a setting in the theme panel to deactivate the login: https://www.screencast.com/t/iH9dOBcB6bcp
