Can't edit wiki?

I don't know if this is a bug, but I thought I'd ask here first.

When I try and edit a wiki page (game help), I always get:
"Sorry! We could not process your edit due to a loss of session data.

You might have been logged out. Please verify that you're still logged in and try again. If it still does not work, try logging out and logging back in, and check that your browser allows cookies from this site."

I can see that I'm logged in at the top of the screen (shows my username). I have tried logging out and back in, and exiting and restarting the browser. Still same results.

I'm relatively new to BGA, so apologies if I'm not looking or asking in the right place.

Thanks.

Have you tried with an https url instead of http ?

That did it! Thanks! Why are links taking me to http instead of https? Like even after saving the update the page immediately goes back to http. The way I originally got to the wiki was by clicking the "This page comes from BGA wiki" link at the top of the Game Help section (How To Play tab) while playing a game. That's an http link.

Does everyone have to manually stick https:// in front of the URL when visiting wiki pages before editing them?

This issue has been fixed some weeks ago.
