Homepage Login popup window not displaying... solution

I just figured out that the popup Login window does not display on my homepage, for all browsers, whenever it loads as an HTTP page *when* my site is setup for HTTPS.  Ever since I added code to .htaccess to automatically convert HTTP to HTTPS the homepage popup Login window has worked correctly.  

To .htaccess I added... under RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://my-site-name.com/$1 [R,L]

Thanks epaulo. This just baffled me for 2 and a half days...

given everyone is going SSL these days, this is an important post.

Hi chrisjbell,

Which version are you running? I'm on 7.2.1 and don't experience this problem.

Hi micoots

yes 7.2.1 here. To make it even more troublesome it was pretty much limited to IOS devices, safari, though one report on pc running chrome. It would fix itself after the user refreshed the page a few times, so caching seemed to fix it. But given we are about to go live and suspect about 10,000 users will signup in a short timeframe, being unable to join easily was not an issue we wanted :/ on our experience I would probably recommend making the change, it certainly can't hurt on an ssl site.
