XF 2.0 my ssl is not showing

[Gregsta]

How do I get my ssl to show in xenforo, I am running the latest version of xenforo, It's been configured correctly by my host but I want it to show when users first visit my web site. I know you can do it this way https:// but most of the users visiting my web site are not going to know this.

Contact your hosting company and tell them to force https through your .htaccess file. They will know what to do. Then, no matter what form your members type in to access your site, it will come up https.

If for some reason your host won't edit your .htaccess file to force https, there's a guide here on how to do it yourself:
