On the Home screen the instructions to add the project are:

"Participate
Read our rules and policies
Download and run BOINC.
Choose Add Project
When prompted, enter
https://wuprop.boinc-af.org/
If you have any problems, get help here."

Seems the URL should be: http://wuprop.boinc-af.org/
Otherwise trying to add the project yields a -184 error and says to try again later.

Weird, I see http, not https. Maybe depending on the browser? I use Firefox on Win10.

Interesting. Thanks for clarifying. Only the http variant works to join.

I guess that whether https works or not for joining depends on the BOINC version one is using. Older BOINC versions will have an issue with a certificate or something like this.
I few weeks ago I tried to join WUProp through https using BOINC 7.14.2
It didn't work.
I only succeeded with plain http
