I found how to auto redirect admin to https:// by adding/changing code in .htaccess from here https://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/123442-auto-redirect-admin-to-https/

 

This command

RewriteCond %{http_host} ^yourdomain.com/your-admin [nc]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.yourdomain.com/your-admin/$1 [r=301,nc]

 

so it mean I need to use (I use prestahop.com as example site only).

RewriteCond %{http_host} ^prestashop.com/administrator [nc]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.prestashop.com/administrator/$1 [r=301,nc]

 

 

but where should I add/change to make this working in here below?

Why are you doing any of this?  If you enable SSL in your back office Preferences page, then it will use SSL

[bksmartit]

I don't know, I did this before as you said to enable SSL in your back office Preferences page. But I tested again just now and it works for me this time. Not sure why it didn't before? I think I had IP address exception in maintenance settings?

[bksmartit]

I am not sure what is going on but I noticed that sometime it is working but this time I am getting this: SSL is activated. Please connect using the following link to log into secure mode (https://)

 

 

[bellini13]

http://yourdomain.com

 

is not the same as

 

https://yourdomain.com

 

 

It is telling you to access your back office using HTTPS, if you are using a bookmark, then update your bookmark to include HTTPS

I also get the same message &  when I try to login I only see the prestashop logo and cannot proceede to the administrator panel. How can I overpass this problem>?

Hi,

 

if you have SSL enabled and go to your login page without SSL prestashop just tells you that SSL is normally active but since you're the website owner (ip registered in maintenance mode) you can proceed.

 

Are you trying to force SSL on the Login page? One Solution would be: You could just update your bookmark and that would solve lots too.

 

Or this code will force SSL. Place it in your admin folder. I had to do a print screen as i could not post it here.

Thank you for your answer... I followed instructions and I get "server internal error" message.

Maybe I did somethig wrong?
Cause I interpreted your " Or this code will force SSL. Place it in your admin folder..." as if I were to create an htaccess file inside the admin folder of the site and not within the htaccess in the root folder

THEN i pasted the code into htaccess file in the root folder. Got server error on bot site front page and back office login page

Is there a way to change the site status so that I will be able to login?
