You have a configure.php file in your catalog/admin make sure you http and https is configured correctly.

this is partial from the admin conf file - not correct? What should I change? THanks

 

define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://www.xxxxxxx.com');

define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'true'); // secure webserver for catalog module

define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/home/carolina/public_html/'); // where the pages are located on the server

define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/admin/'); // absolute path required

And does the one in admin/includes.configure.php say the same?

That is the admin/includes/configure.php file

 

the relevant part anyway

There is a bug in admin/index.php that states you are are not ssl secure when in fact you are. If you see the gold padlock in the bottom righ side of your toolbar of your web browser then you have ssl enabled and this is the bug that we all have to deal with. I will assume this is your case.

 

If this is not your case You may want to check out this contrib.

Thank you once again - but, actually it does show secure initially but does revert to unsecure when clicking on any link - like clicking on backup will revert to http://*.* again.

 

I'll check out the contrib - - and thanks for taking the time to assist.

 

 

All the best
