Loaded Commerce Community

Hello,

I was told by the provider of my EV SSL certificate that the "green EV bar" wouldn't show up next to the URL like I want it to unless I can ensure that all the image urls being loaded in with the page have an HTTPS appended to them as well. Any idea on how I can configure my CRE Loaded site to do this?

Thanks in advance!

If you use relative paths for any images then the cart will automatically make them https:// ... ie don't hardcode in http://www.mysite.com/images/pic1.jpg as this will break on an https:// page. Use images/pic1.jpg only.

Forgive me for my ignorance, but where do I edit the configuration for this? The configure.php inside admin/includes has the DIR_WS_IMAGES is set to images/ .... Do I have to edit this in the actual back end of the CMS or on the server itself?

Thanks in advance!
Justin

Hi Justin

Basically wherever hardcoded image links like http:// have been made ... could be /templates/yourtemplate/footer.php, the infoboxes ... if you provide a url where you know there are https:// issues, we can id some.

Well, for example, if you visit http://www.theosustore.com you'll notice that the "https" is in there for the web site, but not for the images...

I'm using this code in the .htaccess file in the site root:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

Thanks again!

Not a lot of point running the whole site through https .. anyway: it's all the images from the external site img.constantcontact that are breaking the ssl.

So your choices:
#1 go through and https:// hardcode all of the images from external sites like this
OR
#2 dload same images onto your own server and use relative paths from there.

Judging by the size of the images, and if you're allowed to use them, I'd go #2.
