XF 1.5 Https not working

[polle]

Hello, I moved my site to https and I have some problems. (XenForo 1.5.12)

https://site.com - works fine
https://site.com/forum - does not work (here is Xenforo installed)

I already changed the board URL and added the following to htaccess.

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

A strange thing. The only thing that works with https (this site is secure) is when I view an image from Xenforo Gallery and thats it. (Not the full gallery or category, just in a single image)

Main forum, nodes, threads, etc... All of them fail.

What can the problem be and how can I fix it ?

Thank you.

There is a guide here: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/how-to-implement-ssl-to-secure-http-traffic-https.5425/

Thank you Brogan.

Actually I followed that before asking, changed the URL, added the code to htaccess, verified that phpnfo shows it on and rebuild the sitemap.

After that, I am getting what I described above.

Any ideas what the problem can be?

Thanks.

It's difficult to say without seeing the site in question.

It's not clear what is failing exactly.

Thank you. I just sent you a private message with the info.

Thanks again.

I just replied - everything works fine for me.

I suspect browser cache may be involved.

Edit: On closer inspection, there is mixed content on some pages. The guide I linked to earlier explains exactly how to resolve those.

Thank you Brogan.

- Proxy Images
- Proxy Links

Are enabled also.

The problem persists.

As I said above, there is mixed content on some pages due to hard-coded images from non-secure URLs.

Ok, I just found what the problem was. I had a banner in the sidebar, a simple jpg image being called from http: after changing that to https:, it worked fine.

Thank you Brogan.
