Re: Quote and Edit stopped working after moving to https

That seems like the same issue already discussed in this thread. If the server does not send back an XML response then you get a failure. You can test like this, on this site if you do:
https://www.elkarte.net/community/index.php?action=register;sa=usernamecheck;xml;username=testuser
You will get back an XML response like:
<elk>
<username valid="0">testuser</username>
</elk>
Do the same for your site, what do you get in the response?
If its not the same then its a server configuration issue.
One I have seen in the past is if your site sends back the response with content encoding br. If that turns out to be the case it means your server is using the apache mod_brotli (only seen on an https sites) And if that is so, you need to ensure you have Brotli configured to send back the proper mime type. Check that the Brotli configuration section has something like RewriteRule "\.xml\.br$" "-" [T=text/xml,E=no-brotli:1,E=no-gzip:1]
it could be there but set as text/html which is wrong. Either way we need the response back as XML. Good Luck
