how do i turn on sure sll for checkout and admin

[paulFromWales]

When i upgraded to didnt choose to have SSL's on, now nothing secure. So how do i turn them on. In the config file it states the https address but is there a setting in admin or something. No forms are secure or checkout or admin

cheers

You need to first buy an SSL certificate; then you can enable it in your cart. Look around - there are lots of companies selling them, and prices vary tremendously for the same actual security.

I have a secure area for my website, but i do not know how to make pages secure with it. I have put the secure address in the configure.php file but what do i need to do.

There are two configure files, including one for admin..
you have to alter both to enable SSL

Hi

is it in admin-include-configure.php

I changed both files to secure 'true'

and the one in admin has:
define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'true');
define('ENABLE_SSL_ADMIN', 'true');

which are both now true



Yet site still not secure, login area does not have secure adrress neither does checkout, any ideas?

Who is your host? Do they use a Plesk control panel?

[misty]

is it in admin-include-configure.php

yes that is correct..

define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'true');
define('ENABLE_SSL_ADMIN', 'true');

Correct, but you have only done half the alterations..
In BOTH configure files, you also have to alter
defines for https server
i.e.

 
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://yourzencart.com');
  define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://yourzencart.com');
  // Use secure webserver for checkout procedure?
  define('ENABLE_SSL', 'true');
