XF 1.5 Force SSL

[Robby]

Hi,

I implemented Ssl but it's not forced on very page.
These steps i took:
https://xenforo.com/community/resources/how-to-implement-ssl-to-secure-http-traffic-https.5425/

When you enter for example whithout https:// it won't load the ssl script

I've the same problem. In all my sites (not xF), I've added at .htaccess

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

and work fine.

Now I tried adding only the last 2 lines in all possible positions in .htaccess that xF uses but (depending on the position) one of the 2 below happens:

1. Still works in http://
2. The page is messging

I also tried adding $_SERVER['HTTPS'] = 'on'; in config.php as I read in the above article, but again nothing.

Any suggestion?

Thank you

Ok, I found the solution. The syntax here was a bit different. The code below works:

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
