How to Enable HTTPS on SocialEngine 4

Written by Andrew Cross Saturday, 1 December 2012

The best way to make your SocialEngine network more secure is to enable HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) once you have bought your SSL Cert and activated it via your cPanel edit your .htaccess

Alter your .htaccess file to force SSL by adding these lines below this line ‘RewriteBase /’:

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off

RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]

That’s it! The .htaccess change will force https on all pages, you will then see https should be in the URL.

If you need help with doing this don’t hesitate to contact me.
