# [Plugin: WordPress HTTPS] HTTPS with WP-Ecommerce plugin

 * I’ve been trying to get the WP-Ecommerce plugin properly secured ([http://www.instinct.co.nz/e-commerce/](http://www.instinct.co.nz/e-commerce/)),
   and it’s driving me nuts. I tried following their advice, tried other plugins,
   hacks, etc. I can’t seem to get things to work. I always have those unsecured
   items on the page.
 * I tried using your plugin to force SSL on the shopping cart/checkout page, but
   what usually happens is it gets stuck in a redirect loop. It’s trying to redirect
   to the non-www domain, then back to the www domain. I also have been unable to
   set the entire site to https:// by changing the main WordPress URL. This breaks
   the site and I have to go change these back in the database manually.
 * I’d appreciate any help you might be able to offer on configuring things.

 * As I’ve posted in a few other support topics about these redirect loops, I can’t
   seem to reproduce them on my test sites. I’m going to push out a new version (
   1.7.1) that may fix the issue. When it’s released, I’d like you to update, try
   it again, and let me know if the problem persists. I can’t reproduce this problem,
   so I’ll need your help in tracking down what the problem is if this update doesn’t
   fix it.

 * Mvied,
 * I seem to have resolved my issues. I had a plugin installed called “Enforce www.
   Preference” by Mark Jaquith. Once I disabled that plugin, the redirect loop stopped
   happening. Seems like there may have been a conflict.
 * Also, I was still having problems with some elements not being secure on the 
   page. I tracked this down to the cforms plugin, which inserts some code into 
   the header of the page (links to its scripts and so on). In cforms settings, 
   I excluded this behavior to the specific pages that require cforms. Now I have
   a properly encrypted page.
 * Thanks for writing this plugin. It seems that my problems were not related to
   WP-Ecommerce after all.

 * Well that’s good to hear!
 * I still find it strange that my plugin couldn’t fix the scripts from cforms. 
   Were there scripts hosted externally or something?

 * No, but the scripts did have the non-www version of the domain name in their 
   links, whereas the rest of the site is supposed to be the www version, and the
   SSL certificate applies only to www. The source from the page is below:
 *     ```
       <!-- Start Of Script Generated By cforms v11.4 [Oliver Seidel | www.deliciousdays.com] -->
       <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://domain.com/wp-content/plugins/cforms/styling/gopalcloud.css" />
       <script type="text/javascript" src="http://domain.com/wp-content/plugins/cforms/js/cforms.js"></script>
       <script type="text/javascript" src="http://domain.com/wp-content/plugins/cforms/js/calendar.js"></script>
       <script type="text/javascript">
       	var cforms = jQuery.noConflict();
       	Date.dayNames = ["S","M","T","W","T","F","S"];
       	Date.abbrDayNames = ["S","M","T","W","T","F","S"];
       	Date.monthNames = ["January","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December"];
       	Date.abbrMonthNames = ["January","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December"];
       	Date.firstDayOfWeek = 0;
   
       	Date.fullYearStart = "20";
       	cforms.dpText = { TEXT_PREV_YEAR:"Previous Year",TEXT_PREV_MONTH:"Previous Month",TEXT_NEXT_YEAR:"Next Year",TEXT_NEXT_MONTH:"Next Month",TEXT_CLOSE:"Close",TEXT_CHOOSE_DATE:"Choose Date",ROOT:"http://domain.com/wp-content/plugins/cforms"};
       	cforms(function() { Date.format = "dd/mm/yyyy"; cforms(".cf_date").datePicker( {startDate:"01/01/1899",verticalOffset:10,horizontalOffset:5,horizontalPosition:1 } ); Date.format = "mm/dd/yyyy"; });
       </script>
       <!-- End Of Script Generated By cforms -->
       ```
   
 * I’m not sure if the newest version of cforms will have the same problem.

 * Ah, yeah, my plugin wouldn’t pick that up as it uses the URL configured in the
   admin panel. You should probably say something to the plugin author, he must 
   be doing something strange.
