Using shared SSL for login/register/admin

[usertry]

Hello all,

I looked everywhere but I didn't find the answer. Does Pligg support shared SSL certificates for login/register/admin pages? Has anybody successfully implemented this use case? Can someone advise on how to implement it? My use case is as follows:

1. users go to http://www.mysite.com
2. they go to login/register page, but this should be now https://www.mysite.com
3. after successful login/register, they should be able to go back to http://www.mysite.com but the session must be preserved

Any ideas?

Thank you!

Try this through htacess. Google htaccess force https.

Try this through htacess. Google htaccess force https.

Thanks! I'll try that. Is the user session preserved though if I enforce https only for login page? When the user wants to add a story using http://www.mysite.com/submit.php, is he still going to recognized as logged in? This question leads to another one: is the user session stored in the database?

Thanks again!
