Is there a way to make admin panle HTTPS SECURE?

[XxWickedxX]

I already have a ssl cert and all of that good stuff. But is there anyway to make the admin panel function in a https environment instead of http? I can just type it in to go to the admin panel but after switching off the main page it operates on http instead. I imagine this could be done since the admin page tells you if you are protected by a secure connection or not. What do I need to do?

Visit your website control pnel and look for protected directories.

I am not trying to password protect it.. Thats already done.. I just need the admin panel to function within a secure socket layler (ssl). This way everything done in the admin panel is encrypted.

Edit the admin/includes/configure.php file and change all three http instances to https. Then set the enable ssl option to true. It should work for you then.

i have same problem trying to fix it

you must have in /catalog/admin/.htaccess this

 

<IfModule mod_ssl.c>

# if the server is able to use SSL, require its use

SSLRequireSSL

</IfModule>

 

to force using ssl only

but after ten there you get error that page not foud

i am working on it either

and in /catalog/admin/includes/configure.php

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'https://domain.com'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://domain.com');

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

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

 

adn it should work only on https:// protocol
