Forced SSL Everywhere OC 1.x - 3.x
New!
OCMOD version is available for download!


This extension forces the SSL mode for ALL existing links and media in OpenCart for both admin and front end sessions, protecting your site from hacker attacks.

What You Get

• Forced SSL For All Links & Media
  
  
• Higher Rank In Google
  Google has announced that going HTTPS will give you a minor ranking boost
  
  
• More Trustworthy Site For Visitors
  With a nice green lock on the top left on all pages your site looks more trustworthy for the visitors.
  
  
• Reclaimed Lost SEO Link Juice
  Solves the lost link juice issue by passing the link juice from http:// to https:// resources ensuring better ranking for your pages in search results. Also consolidates SEO juice on the main domain by redirecting index.php to the site root.
  
  
• Resolved SEO Duplicate Content Issue
  Resolves the duplicate content issue in search engines caused by http:// and https:// resources being indexed separately and by multiple URLs pointing to the same home page.
  
  
• Resolved Mixed/Insecure Content Issue
  Resolves the problem with mixed/insecure content when HTTPS pages include resources through HTTP connection.
  
  
• Admin And Users Account Protection
  Having even one page not encrypted with SSL makes your site vulnerable for man-in-the-middle attacks when hackers can sniff out a cookie passed over non secure connection very easily and take over an account completely (admin or front end user account).

Key features:

• Works with any OC theme and extension
• OC v3.x ready while working on OC v1.5.x
  The single xml file supports both OC v1.5.x and OC v3.0. If you decide to upgrade to OC v3.x it won't require you to install a new file, the same file will work fine on any version of OC.
  
• Easy install
  Simply put force-ssl.xml file into the vqmod/xml folder or install with vqmod.
  The module takes effect immediately after being uploaded. No need to activate it in the admin settings anymore.
  If not working make sure "Use SSL" setting is set to "Yes" in Admin -> System -> Settings -> Your site .
  
  
• No changes in the .htaccess file.
  The redirect is done during the earliest system start-up to reduce unnecessary server load.
  
  
• SSL Forced 301 Redirect
  Built-in SSL Forced 301 Redirect from http:// to https://
  Certain URLs can be added to the exception rules so that they are never forced to https.
  
  
• SSL Reversed Proxy & Load Balanced SSL Proxy support
  Automatically detects and fixes the problem with SSL Reversed Proxy & Load Balanced SSL Proxy when all https pages are displayed without any css formatting or with security warnings and errors.
  
  
• Restores the original IP of the visitor for CloudFlare users
  
  
• Added a fix for Paladin Redirect Manager unable to redirect https URLs
