Hi all,
I've created a page named "login", then when the user click on the link to go to this page "login", I would like to toggle to https.
How is it possible ?

Thanks
Franck

Hi Frankcl,

If you have an SSL certificate wouldn't it make sense to just always offer a secure website instead of just at a login page?

Hi LK,
It seams to be already included by my web provider (OVH) because if I replace the http by https, it works without any alert with Firefox and Internet explorer too. Do you think that is a proof ?
Thanks

Yeah you most likely have an SSL certificate - Google now ranks sites based on if they have one or not now too so if you have one then absolutely offer a secure site across the board.

You'll need to edit your .htaccess file (should be instructions in there) and also set the protocol to https in your MODX system settings.
