Switching Shopping Cart to use SSL
I want to show the basket using http but I want to switch to use SSL once the checkout button is selected. Does anyone know how to do this.

I tried this.

this.ShoppingCartControl.ButtonNext.PostBackUrl = Request.Url.ToString().Replace("http://", "https://");

but the engine just flips back to unencrypted.

Anyone have any ideas?

Hello,

Basically it should be enough to set 'Require SSL' to 'Yes' for the Shopping cart document. Please see more details here: http://devnet.kentico.com/docs/devguide/index.html?ssl_https_support.htm

Then if you reach come up to the shopping cart the HTTPS protocol should be forced.

What I want to do is only go to HTTPS when the checkout button is pressed but while a customer just views the basket or adds items if remains HTTP. Otherwise the site keeps flicking from secure to unsecure.

RE:Switching Shopping Cart to use SSL
Hello,

It would be pretty hard customization since the shopping cart is located on one specific page, which means it has only one URL. I would recommend you to set it directly to the whole shopping cart page. Is it ok with you?
