[Solved] "Use HTTPS for this page" not forcing https.

Post by jomoweb »

The newish "Use HTTPS for this page:" is a wonderful feature, but it does not seem to be able to force https on a page.

The page works great with this URL:
https://www.example.com

Problem is, that it will also work with this url when I navigate there directly:
http://www.example.com

Is there a way I can ensure that https is forced?  I would rather not have people be able to navigate to the http url directly on accident.  I do have pretty urls (mod_rewrite), but the same thing happened when I turned them off.

Version: CMS Made Simple 1.8.2 "Toliara"

Thank you Calguy! Guess I should have reported that as a bug.  I really appreciate this feature.
