SSL in CE4

btaylorphoto · 2017-10-20 04:30:06

Hey, guys, I can't figure out what I need to change to get my SSL to work on my CE4 Website.
I changed my settings Company URL to https://www.btaylorphoto.com
not sure if there is any other ones I need to change any help would be greatly appreciated.

You may need to change things in the .htaccess file.

Several people have discussed doing this in Backlight sites, so you could try doing a forum search for ssl or https in the Backlight Support forum.

Ok so it should be the same as backlight.

You have to change cart too if you use that.

I do not see it in cart settings for CE4 Cart?
Also my site seems to not be working correctly no it shows my logo and is white with no photos?

Also when I click on a link on the main page that isn't working it goes back to a non https page.

CE4 Gallery > Output Settings > Shopping Cart Integration: Cart URL

If you look at your page source you might see where it is referencing http assets, you cannot include them in an https page. I converted my site to https but it is a Backlight site so I don't have my CE4 site any more to look at.

So I have to re export my whole site?

charlie.choc · 2017-10-20 05:31:31

No, that shouldn't be necessary. I know folks have done it with their CE4 sites, I just don't have one of my own to play with. What is your site URL?

btaylorphoto · 2017-10-20 05:37:29

www.btaylorphoto.com

charlie.choc · 2017-10-20 05:51:44

Looking at the source it looks like your site root is still http:// and not https://

btaylorphoto · 2017-10-20 05:57:27

Ok so which one is that I have to change?

charlie.choc · 2017-10-20 06:00:22

http://ce4.theturninggate.net/docs/doku … page_setup

Make sure the site root is https:

ok so I have to re upload my site to change this then.

charlie.choc · 2017-10-20 06:04:20

No you should just need to change the site root in the settings. instead of http://mysite.com it should be https://mysite.com

btaylorphoto · 2017-10-20 06:16:00

ok part of it worked. I guess I have to re upload all of the pages

charlie.choc · 2017-10-20 06:23:06

You should only have to reload pages that have hard coded links in them as far as I know.

I have this in mt .htaccess to send all local http requests to https

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

</IfModule>
