So ive installed it however when i go to /shop/admin/ it logs me in and does not ask me for a password. Also when i go from the website to the admin panel it is not in ssl, so do i need to modify something to make sure it always put me in https:// ? All help is appreciated. Thank you much!

the documentation states, you need to either install htaccess to control the admin or any number of contributions for password protecting it. search your host knowledge base for how to install htaccess (each host is different), also there are a number of contributions for admin access with levels.

https will not do anything for that. do youy have an ssl certificate?

I do have ssl. Im wondering how i can make it global that epople browse with ssl. For the admin section, i just went to cpanel and installed a password directory for the /admin/ folder. will that work?

Password protect the admin folder (using .htaccess file, etc. - the cpanel thing works just fine.) or peruse the contributions section for some other answers. To get the "always HTTPS" admin connection:

 

/admin/includes/configure.php

 

change line 14 from:

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.yourdomainname.com');

 

to

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'https://www.yourdomainname.com');

[you decide]
