Steps to get SSL working correctly

[Janyour]

Hello, i am trying to set up ssl on my ipboard website, i activated the https connexion in the connexion settings,

Is there any others steps to follow ?

1. Configure your server....and make sure it's working.
2. Change conf_global.php to modify your board_url
3. Run the support tool in the ACP.

Other things? Check your htaccess files to ensure that they redirect http to https

Thanks Nathan, this is what i did, what support tool i should use ?

I get this message :

 

i used the support clear cache tools but nothing change !

[Nathan Explosion]

ACP -> System -> Support

And that message is telling you specifically what is wrong with that page - you have https page that is serving an image on http.

[Janyour]

Oh yes i used that to clear cache but i have always a yellow icon in the explorer barre as mentionned before !

Maybe post the url for your forum so we can actually see it?

If your page serves any HTTP resources whatsoever, you'll get that notice. It's not that the page itself isn't being sent "securely". It may even be that everything sent from your domain is secure, but something that the page is using isn't.

To a certain extent you can't avoid this (it happens on this forum also in some threads) because if you allow your users to directly post an image, or use a URL as an avatar, they can use an HTTP image which will take your green padlock away.

If it's happening on every single page, then likely something (a JS/CSS file or an image) in your theme is to blame.

To identify HTTP resources on Firefox, right click > Inspect Element (or just press F12), go to the Console tab and ensure Security is enabled, and reload the page. They will appear in red with the message

Also in ACP-system-posting-remote images, tick "Serve images from local server?"
