Details

bug 480564 was WONTFIXed but the problem behind it still exists.  There are a bunch of hardcoded http links around the template and clicking on one essentially "logs you out" in that you aren't logged in when posting to the forums... you have to manually change the url to https.

While we don't have the performance to force anonymous users to https, we should be able to at least drop the protocol part of the URL entirely and use relative links.
Will investigate, although with the 1.1 release bugs I have to handle, it'll take a while. Anyone: feel free to take this if you can work on it sooner.

Alternate proposal to fix the same problem: Bug 483026
Cww: So if bug 483026 is fix, we can consider this bug fixed? Or should the links be made relative anyway?
I think bug 483026 is an awesome solution.
