CMS Made Simple Forums

Hello CMSMS-Team,

I don't know whether it would be easy to implement, but I think it would make sense to be able to mark pages as encrypted or not encrypted in the pages list. This way You could, say, mark Your contact form and the ubiquitous "thanksalot.html" as ssl-encrypted and thus make Your users feel warm and cosy due to the fact that obviously someone is taking care about their private data.

It could be that the way to do it is similar to http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 750.0.html, but I didn't read the source so far (shame on me).

Greetings,

Dirk

Yes, I think that this is a great idea! I have put together a 'workaround' with a tag that redirects the page to https, the issue is that all the links on the page will then still go to http links... i.e. the logo etc. So to get rid of the error "this page is encrypted, but is sending over a non-secure link and someone could steal it etc." I had to change the root url in the config file and just https the whole site.... I don't like that solution!

I think that what needs to happen is for the links to be relative urls in the calls... i.e. "/example/file.html" or "/example/image.jpg" etc.

Then if an option is set in the content page to be HTTPS or HTTP that should... work.... I think!
