I made a search but did not get any relevant answer,

here is my question. I have set up this online photo gallery to sell pictures at http://www.sdghosh.com/store and soon realized that it would be better if add a SSL certificate. I bought a SSL certificate and now when I try to view this same site through https://www.sdghosh.com the images dont show up. what you think I should do?

On the other side I would be glad to any one who would advice me on how to move the whole set up from "http" to "https". I want to provide better security so even if some one by mistakes types http i want them to straight away redirected to https.

thanks to any one who reads this.

if you're in https mode you can't link to an image at http:// - you have to do a relative link like "/image/some.jpg" instead of "http://dd.com/image/some.jpg".

You have

Code: Select all

src="http://www.sdghosh.com/store/image/cache/_MG_1891-100x100.jpg"
Not sure how the cart does that as I've never setup a store yet on SSL but that's why your images aren't loading is because they're coming from a non secured link.. they have to be https as well.

I'm not sure what you mean by the whole set up but perhaps my post will help you.

Can you reactivate it? The private standard SSL certificate should be good for a whole year. Your host or the company you purchased your SSL certificate should be able to help you with the initial installation. Then you can try the steps I posted.
