In the previous article, we described in detail the transition to the secure HTTPS protocol, installing the required SSL certificate and transferring data on the server, read here.
WORDPRESS
First of all, in the administrative panel, change the link settings from http to https:
Then, in the same way, we change the addresses of all media and files on the site, if you have not done this earlier. Thus, we translate the web resource and its content from HTTP to HTTPS.
It greatly simplifies this process. You can add it through the WordPress plugin panel.
Install and activate the plugin. After activation, just click on the button “Activate SSL ”as in the screenshot.
This completes the migration to HTTP for WordPress. It’s simple thanks to plugins, which is what WP is famous for. If you have any difficulties, write to us.
JOOMLA
After completing all the settings on the server, it’s time to go to the Joomla admin panel.
Then go to the tab “SERVER” and enable SLL on the whole site as shown in the screenshot below.
Let’s change the configuration.php file. Open it and find the line: public $ live_site = ” ;
Change to: public $ live_site = ‘https: //your_site.ua‘ ;
Then open the .htaccess file in the root directory of your site and add an entry at the end:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} OFF
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}
Then we save all the changes and see if the desired letter has appeared “S” in the site url.
OPENCART
In this manual, we will consider enabling SSL for OpenCart 2.x.
- Naturally, first we buy the SSL certificate itself;
- Find two files config.php in the root directory and in the admin folder of your site;
- We make the following changes to it:
- This fragment
// HTTPS
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'http://yourdomain.com/');
Change to
// HTTPS
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://yourdomain.com/');Thus, we change the HTTP protocol to HTTPS.
- Making changes to the OpenCart control panel. Go in System-> Settings (System-> Settings). Then click on the Edit button.
Looking for the first setting – Use SSL? Press – YES
- We apply, update and check the presence of the HTTPS protocol in the browser address bar.
MODX
We go to the site control panel.
Instruments → Configuration → Mchange “A type server ”on HTTPS → We save
Next, go to the tab “Templates”, open the required template and change the code as shown in the screenshot.
Then we clear the cache via the button “Website” → “Clear Cache”
The final stage. In file .htaccess, add the entry below
RewriteEngine On #если еще не добавлено
RewriteBase / #если еще не добавлено
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
This is the code for setting up a 301 redirect that will redirect the user from old links to new ones. (from secure connection).
That’s all, now your site is protected, according to the requirements of search engines.
