Hello,

My test site is running on Joomla v1.7 with SSL enabled on both back and front ends. It works fine until I install JA Edenite template. After installing JA Extension Manager component along with JAT3 plug-in, the site shows SSL warnings. Since the JAT3 plug-in refers to some insecure (probably just HTTP) elements to other sites, browser shows SSL warnings.

Previous version of JA Edenite for Joomla 1.5 came with JAT plug-in built-in and I don’t have any issues with that at that time. It’s very inconvenient with these kind of warnings.

Please advice on how to remove those elements referring just HTTP elements outside of my primary domain. Thank you.

Hi,

Okay. I installed the test board on test again. Login Details Sent via PM

This is a fresh installation. I also installed JA Edenite template, JAT3 plug-in, JA Component and Module.

The problem is that, when you install the component, it displays SSL warning. Also When you navigate to template settings after installing all above mentions plugin, component, it displays SSL error message in the browser.

I know this is due to non-HTTPS reference in the template code. But we are going to use the site in a professional manner and our admins confused on this.

We would like to remove any non-HTTPS references from the template, plgu-in, component or even module. As I said earlier, it displays warning up on JA Component installation. After going to JA Template configuration page, it displays huge SSL error.

Please advice as soon as possible. Thanks.

Hi meratechstuff!
Once you have SSL on, every component/template on the site has to originate from a secure place (HTTPS). You have to go through all the code and make sure you change HTTP to HTTPS. For example a picture. <img src=”http://domain.com/mypic.jpg”> will cause that pop up.Go through php files, CSS files. Everything has to change to HTTPS. Anything relative can stay the way it is.
Hope this helps.
If not, you may want to consider a SSl redirect plug in. there are many available on the extensions page at Joomla.org

I’m talking about Admin control panel only! After the installation of JAT3 plug-in/component, the site breaks SSL since it refers to non-HTTPS elements in theme configuration section. i.e., it refers to YouTube videos along with other documentation which establishes direct links to other sites in HTTP.

The newer browsers (Chrome etc.) ignore any kind of other non-HTTPS references like direct linking images etc. But in the JAT3 plugin/component, it’s a different case.

Hi meratechstuff.
Make use of mod_rewrite as follows:
RewriteEngine on

# Rewrite URLs to https that go for the admin area
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^127.[0-9]+.[0-9]+.[0-9]+$
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=off
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.*/administrator/.*)
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R]

Do notice the rewrite pertains ONLY to the admin area!
The SSL settings apply to ALL pages, please adjust by using an SSL redirect or the other suggestions I have listed for you.
thanks!

My .htaccess settings are correct. I even using the almost similar code! I reinstalled Joomla multiple times and everything works fine with SSL. It giving SSL errors after I installed JAT3 plugin.

Hi meratechstuff!
Please try this next solution:
Open the file configuration.php in the root of your installation. Find the line:

public $force_ssl = '0';
Make sure it is set at ‘0’
If that does not help you, OR you must have SSL for Admin page, I suggest this extension.
Please advise me if any of this resolves the issue for you.
Thanks!
