Hi PaulKater! Welcome to Runboard. I am referring this thread to someone higher up than I am. I am also referring your other thread there, too. You should get some intelligent answers soon.

Re: Personal homepage
Hi Paul,
I agree that we need to add the ability to start URLs with https as well as //, and I will ask Thor to make this change in his programming.
In the meantime, what would happen if you left the 's' off of your website's URL? If it's absolutely necessary for your website to use https, perhaps you can put a redirect from http to https in place, and simply link to the http in your Runboard profile, at least temporarily.

Re: Personal homepage
I just checked the homepage you added to your signature, and see that it is set to automatically redirect to https even if you start it with http.
In other words, you can add your homepage to your profile as long as you leave the 's' out of the URL,and it will take people where you want them to go. I still agree that we need to make it possible to start URLs with https as well as //, but I hope it helps to know that there is a way for you to add your link there.
Also, you can make the link in your signature clickable by using the same BBCode that is used in message board posts:
