Hello,

I have installed the secure pages module and I am only securing the following pages.

user
user/*
user/*/edit
admin
admin/*
cart/checkout
cart/checkout/review
cart/checkout/payment_details/*
cart/checkout/complete
uc_paypal/ipn/*
uc_paypal/wps/*
uc_paypal/wps/complete/*
cgi-bin/webscr
google_checkout

However, it seems to be putting my whole site under HTTPS. Even when I log out, clear my cache and check the webpage, even the homepage goes under HTTPS. What is going on? Any suggestions?
Is it maybe securing the site because I am an anonymous user and the "user" option is selected above?

SOLUTION:

The solution is you need to check the checkbox for "Switch back to http pages when there are no matches" or else your whole site will be in HTTP. With that checkbox checked, only the sites you list (or dont list depending on what option you select) will be protected.

Its not very intuitive that that checkbox needs to be checked in order to only SSL the listed / non-listed pages.
I hope that solution sticks and helps someone else.

Version: 6.x-1.x-dev » 6.x-1.8

I'm assuming that 1.8 and 1.x_dev are the same, because I am also having the same issue.

It seems to be securing most pages unless the user specifically removes the "s." Seems a little strange... I have my config page set-up correctly as you mentioned above. Not sure why it's doing this, but it's really annoying.

Well the solution above made it so that SSL doesnt encrypt my whole site, but the home page remains encrypted - even though it shouldnt.

i can live with that for now.

As a followup - to UNENCRYPT the home page - see this thread

Also, one thing to note—I had this running on a 5.x site and it didn't have this problem. It worked flawlessly. So that tells me that it's not a server issue. Help!
