Client Area force SSL?

[dedinode]

Hi

 

I've been trying to get the client area of WHMCS to force SSL and use https:// however everything I have tried using .htaccess has resulted in a redirect loop error. I'm probably doing something stupid and not noticed but would appreciate any help with this.

 

I notice in the admin panel of WHMCS you can force SSL for the admin area but I don't see anything for the client area which would have been handy.

 

Thanks in advance..

its a pain in the backside to do it, and if the person types out the url you have no control but you can edit the urls in the templates.

 

{$systemsslurl} is what you need to add before each link.

 

There are three areas where you cannot use it that i know of so far, serverstatus, Knowledgebase and downloads. Everywhere else you can use it. Just change the links

I just got help with this so the kudos go to a friend on stackexchange. I was looking to SEO my whole site basically, but i found that the url masking broke when the protocol switched then returned if a link with the same protocol was clicked, SSL, non-SSL, basically the second line of each allows the mask to stay in place when switching protocol, otherwise you will see for instance, knowledgebase.php instead of knowledgbase/ or whatever you named it.

 

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on

RewriteRule ^other-page$ https//%{HTTP_HOST}/whmcs-dir/$0 [R,L,NC]

RewriteRule ^other-page$ /otherscript.php [L,NC]

 

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off

RewriteRule ^another-page$ http//%{HTTP_HOST}/whmcs-dir/$0 [R,L,NC]

RewriteRule ^another-page$ /anotherscript.php [L,NC]

 

Make sure that you use the complete set for each rewrite or face the pages of death.
