SSL Now or later

After installing osc/zen I've noticed the option to install SSL is in the installation process only.

My understanding is that ssl has to be installed then and only then.

Is there a way to install SSL at a later date?

Also I've read that only certain pages need to have ssl on them to avoid having the store load slowly.

And finally do I even need SSL if all my payment is going through paypal or is it worth it just to have the https:// and the green bar in ie7?

Thanks.

After...(not correct info)

My...(nope)

Is...(yep)

Also...(thats the current truth)

And...(yes, it is worth)

There are two files named configure.php that allow you to edit whether you are using SSL or not.

Which pages need SSL and how do you apply it to only those to avoid slow pages and reloading images?

SSL doesn't allow caching I think....:blink:

Zen Cart does this all automatically.

Here's how to set it up after-the-fact if you didn't do it during installation:
