Force https

[dbmv]

I changed the installation path within WHMCS (in gen. config)..to https://mydomain

 

Is there a way to force whmcs to use https on every single page?

You can do it via .htaccess rewrites:

[Gears]

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off

RewriteRule (.*) http-s-://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

 

I tried adding that to my .htaccess but when I go to the URL all I get is

 

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

This isn't necessary any more for the client side as whmcs will do it automatically (fFor the necessary pages) if you enter an SSL url in the config.

 

Whmcs will redirect https back to http for the client side on the pages which don't require https, which is why you see that error.

 

However you can put that file in the admin folder to force https only in the admin area

I would like to force ssl as soon as you log into the site

Ace,

 

I am using the way you showed and it works just fine in Firefox 1.5 and 2 for me. Are you sure that is not a typo where it says "http-s-://" ? Here is what my .htaccess file looks like in the root of my non-secure folder:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

 

It redirects anything that goes to the non-secure folder to my secure one (which actually contains whmcs) which forces the entire whmcs to be secure.
