Secure Magento Transactions Oncloud: https & ssl

[jimbaum]

Greetings.

I have installed magento via my oncloud control panel.

How do I enable secure transactions?

Should I reinstall it into an https folder? If so how? In the application install I did not see an option for secure feature. Nothing was mirrored into my https folder.

Do I purchase an SSL certificate? Can I do that via my oncloud control panel?

My goal is that my customers see an https url in their browser and that their transactions will be secure.

Thanks,

Jim

Hi Jim,

The certificate could be enabled through the Magento Admin area -> System -> Configuration -> Web. There you can define the insecure (non-SSL) and secure (SSL) URLs:, but you should have SSL certificate.

sign up an SSL.

Hi Jim,

Sure, I hope your Magento site runs smoothly & secure.
Also, It's always better to choose use secure URLs in admin. In this way you will increase the security of the script's backend.
