HTTPS issues with site

Hi

Installed SSL on my domain and now when viewed using HTTPS the site is all over the place including the admin.

What have I missed please?

Make sure these changes were made to header.inc.php: http://www.boonex.com/forums/topic/HTTPS-how-easy-to-setup-.htm#256840

 

Also make sure the cache is cleared.

NOW which file do I edit where I can install the seal image in the footer so it shows on every page no matter which template is being used please.

I tried sub-footer in base template folder but either I'm not coding it correctly or I'm in the wrong file.

I want it displayed inside the bottom footer menu bar at the far right side or on the web page below it in the center.

Help on this would be very much appreciated.

cheers

You want to edit _sub_footer.html, but copy this file over to your active template, and make the changes there. Changes in /base are likely to be overwritten by new versions. Make sure you're clearing the cache after for the changes to take effect.

So based on what your saying, if I edit that file and leave it there as long as I always have a copy of it and I'm aware of up date changes it will work for all templates. CORRECT?

Yes, but you really should not edit /base. Just copy the file to any other templates and make the changes there.

Tried this in the sub_footer but nothing happens no matter where I place it.

<div align="center"><a href=""><img src="images/site_seal.jpg" alt="">kk</a></div>

What am I doing wrong?

Cheers

Make sure that's the correct path to the image, maybe use the full URL. Also make sure the cache is cleared.

100% sure it's the correct path. I always clear catches (I'm sick of clearing catches,,lol).

I've also tried full path and I get nada (nothing) at every attempt.

Actually, I ran some more tests for SSL. If you plan to use the Flash apps [Edit: and forums], you'll want to hold off on SSL - it's still broken at this time. I've reopened the ticket for this, and to also have the redirect refined a bit.

 

If that doesn't bother you, I can take a look at your site and make sure the changes are correctly applied. PM me the details, and I'll take a look as soon as possible.

Just wondering why you are including a hyperlink with nothing in the URL.

 

Try pasting your link to the image in the browser address bar and see if it loads in the browser; quick and dirty way to check an image link so you can rule that out.

So far Flash seems to be working. That hydo link was just there in testing it with the KKK (wording) as a means of being able to see something being displayed should the img not work (as it turns out neither are working), it won't stay once i get it working, just the img will.

Tried the image directly in the browser as you said using the same calling as displayed in the code and it does work.

With my stubbornness I was trying it from the base template (as you know useless) so I did what you first suggested and placed in the  actual default template folder and guess what (it worked).

I was hopping I wouldn't have to make the changes in every template as i wanted this site wide. 

I guess I just found out (worked out) that the templates over ride the default base templates (why I'll never know as they should be site wide no matter what) but anyway it works.

Thanks for time and effort and I do apologize for my stubbornness in not trying what you first suggested. Guess that's the french in me that plays out at times..lol

Guys I really appreciate it.

Cheers

This is the way the template system works, if the file is included in the template, it will override the file in the base template.  So if there was a _sub_footer.html file in your template, then it would not matter what you put in the base template _sub_footer.html as your active template would override it.
