Mort-lemur Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but... Due to recent articles in the press etc about internet security, I was looking for a way to reasure my site visitors that my websites were safe to use (other than displaying the SSL seal, which I do on the relevant SSL pages. Discovered that AVG provide a widget that links to a report of your site safety, and it can be found here: http://www.avgthreatlabs.com/free-tools-for-webmasters/widget/safety-badge/ Then I decided that I wanted this displayed on each page - so Ideally placed in the header, before my "Create Account" link. Also changed the code to read https instead of http to prevent secure / non secure conflicts. So the code for me looks like this: <li><div id="avgthreatlabs_safetybadge_small"><noscript><a href="https://www.avgthreatlabs.com?utm_source=Safety_Widget&utm_medium=NA&utm_campaign=SSBW" target="_blank">AVG Threatlabs</a></noscript></div><script language="javascript" src="https://api.avgthreatlabs.com/static/js/security_s.js"></script></li> Seems to work well and not too dominating on the site. Screenshot attached - any comments or views please? Now running on a fully modded, Mobile Friendly 2.3.4 Store with the Excellent MTS installed - See my profile for the mods installed ..... So much thanks for all the help given along the way by forum members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥kymation Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I tried your code on my test site. Clicking on the image resulted in an Insecure Page warning from Firefox. Apparently HTTPS is not supported properly. Using the code from the site does not produce any errors. I'll probably just hide this on SSL pages. Thanks for the useful tip.

Mort-lemur Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 Another one here: If you have submitted your site to Norton Safe Web ( http://safeweb.norton.com/help/site_owners )then you can add a logo and link to their report on your site like this: <li> <a href="http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=yoursite.com" target="_blank"> <img width="73" height="24" border="0" alt="Norton Safe Web Status" src="/images/norton_safeweb.png" title="Norton Safe Web Status"></li> Obviously changing yoursite.com to the actual name of your site. Also please find your own image for the norton_safeweb.png file and upload to your images directory.

Mort-lemur Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 Interesting observation, sometimes the AVG widgit shows, sometimes it does not, whereas the Norton widgit shows all the time - anybody else noticed this anomaly ?
