i have my doman setup for https so vboptions is https://mydomain.com

so i changed the above code around

this is not working :(, it does not change the url as it still calls https and changes over to https when i just visit from http

i hope that makes sense ?

thanks again for your help

Where have you added this code?

forums/global.php

i hope thats the right one lol

Should be the right place - if you put it somewhere after

Otherweise init.php will unset $vboptions and then populate it with the values from the database.

ahhh i c i put it at the bloody top of the file thanks very much for your insight i will give it a try now :)

hopefully this is useful for others aswell as me :)

Brilliant this is almost complete :)

all i gotta do is sort out the navbar as that must be calling stuff not using the vboptions i think

thanks again its gr8 now you can switch between https or http with no privacy reports and just a padlock or no padlock

now i gotta work out how to port this into photopost and thats the whole site covered ;)

Right the NavBar is being a right pain in the backside :(

i have gone through it and found all the hrefs are pointing to $vboptions[bburl]/etc/etc

and i am getting the MS popup to display non secure items :(

i checked all the src= and they are pointing to the $style whatever ?

and the links on the navbar when i am in https still show http ? but everywhere else on the site is fine ? .. can secure sites not use java ?

thanks for all the help people

@MickieD
Can you post the URL of your board? So I could check which elements (Images, etc.) cause problems.

cee we are moving server and its on my spare box (linux) at home waiting to be transfered but i know the only problem is the navbar

but i have looked at the navbar and they all seem to have vbulletinoptions for the links

but i did check the other navbar template and it has a $nav_url insert and i cannot find any reference to this anywhere ?

thanks again i cant move until i fix the ssl and i am not making much progress, but thanks for your help its much appreicated :)

thanks in advance :)
