https back to http
January 30, 2008, 11:18:33 am
I have Force Secure URLs turned on, which works beautifully for getting people into https when they should be.

I'm wondering how to get people back OUT of https at the end.  Is there a way to tell it that the thank you page does not need to be https, or that people leaving that page can go back to http or some such?

Thanks!!

(Drupal 5.x/Civicrm 1.9)

There's not "automated" solution for this as far as I know. However, you could include a prominent link on the Thank-you Page (adding it to the "Thank-you Message" or the "Thank-you Footer") which uses a complete URL and directs them to some http page (perhaps a "how else can I get involved" page, or your home page...).

i've been thinking about how to do this in an efficient manner and have not figured this out as yet. the brute force way to do it is to check for every page rendered if it needs to be under https or not. some sites might want their entire site under https (which is probably a good practice) and we'll need to deal with that also.

checking all pages for the above seems a bit too excessive to me (civicrm is already a bit heavyweight). i'm a bit reluctant to add a brute force check and am hoping to come up with something more intelligent sometime soon.

that said, most anon users should be redirected to some other non-civicrm pages after making a contribution/event registration. so i'm not sure if this is really a big issue either
