This tutorial is for customers using our Owned Editions<\/u> only.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Customers using our Cloud Edition<\/strong> are already set up to use SSL by default.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Important Note<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Before completing these steps, be sure you actually have a secure certificate installed where iDevAffiliate is located. If you need help adding a secure certificate, please contact your hosting provider and\/or server admin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1 – Secure Marketing Content<\/div>\n\n\n\n

In this step, we’ll make sure iDevAffiliate is always providing your affiliates with secure marketing content. That is, images, links, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In your admin center, go to System Settings<\/strong> > General Settings<\/strong>. Adjust your iDevAffiliate Installation URL<\/strong> setting to use https<\/strong> in the URL setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"using<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Step 2 – Secure SEO Links<\/div>\n\n\n\n

This step is only required if you’re using SEO links. If so, go to General Settings<\/strong> > Affiliate Links<\/strong>. Select SEO Links<\/strong> as the ‘method’ and click Continue To Link Configuration<\/strong> (blue button). Here you will set your SEO Link Domain<\/strong>. If you’re already using SEO links, you just need to change this URL to use https<\/strong> instead of http.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Click Continue To Link Configuration<\/strong> again and you will get the new SEO linking code that will need placed. If you are already using SEO links, take the new code provided and copy\/paste it OVER<\/em> your existing code in your .htaccess file. This new code uses https in the links instead of http. Save your .htaccess file and you’re done with this step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3 – Secure Browsing<\/div>\n\n\n\n

In your iDevAffiliate admin center, go to System Settings<\/strong> > General Settings<\/strong> > SSL<\/strong> (tab). Set Force SSL Browsing<\/strong> to Yes<\/span> to force iDevAffiliate to always load using SSL (https:\/\/<\/strong>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
