Force https on your x-cart admin and x-cart provider sections

Category: Articles
Posted: Feb 2, 2010
Synopsis: Further protect your x-cart admin and provider sections by forcing the use of https using this .htaccess code for x-cart.

It is always a good idea to log into your x-cart admin section using https so that the data you transact during the x-cart session is encrypted. The following code will force your x-cart admins/providers to login using https:// by redirecting them when http:// is used.

Add this code to the .htaccess of your admin section (adjust your url):

# Force https on the admin section
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !443
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.your-domain.com/xcart-dir/admin/$1 [R=301,L]

Add this code to the .htaccess of your provider section (adjust your url):

# Force https on the provider section
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !443
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.your-domain.com/xcart-dir/provider/$1 [R=301,L]

Testimonials

Jon has provided an excellent level of service. All mods have worked perfectly even on my very modified x-cart system. He values your custom especially as repeat customers and often does work perhaps outside the scope of the implementation to keep all his customers happy. I recommend him and his team as a much more efficient team than that provided by X-Cart.
