anyone used Yahoo web hostinig with osCommerce's SSL option, yahoo seems to make u use their /ssl directory, how do you go around that?

 

i am not too familiar with it, any suggestion recommendations would help, like how to configure it so only the checkout part and registering uses SSL.. tahnks!

If they use the two-folder system, with a separate 'ssl' folder in which all https pages must go then the simplest thing is to drop a copy of your entire store into that folder. Later, when you are sure it is working okay, you can remove the 'admin' folder from the http docs folder - so that it's only accessible via https.

so lets say u set it up where u have pages unsecure for viewing and then u want SSL for checkout, creating accounts etc...

 

if u drop teh whole store in SSL then the whole thing will be in SSL.... how do u select piece of it

 

also, is htere a tool to change the paths of scripts? lets say i want to hide my admin page to /foo, where can they change all the paths? thanks!

I have the same question. I am still searching the forum for my answer, but some input would be greatly appreciated. I am using Yahoo also and am at the point of needing to set my security and get site to work properly. I read somewhere where naming the .ht file to a ht.txt will work, but how does it work? How do you refer only the site checkout to the ssl folder? Thanks for all the support. This forum has been a big help so far.

Thanks for the info AlanR. I know one thing for sure <<<Yahoo is Crap>>> to work with. Will keep trying for now. If anyone knows of a good web host please PM me. Thanks
