So I got the SSL certificate installed.
I have gone into the admin/security area and set "Use SSL" to "All Site".
I cleared the cache.

So now I go to my site on Firefox, it still says it's not secure. Mentions images are also not secure.

Our host says it's something that should immediately starting working once installed.

In the security setting, there is a line for "Encryption Key". Is this something I have to change?
It has a key in it already which I have no idea where it came from.

    Ok so the admin area appears as Secure.
    But the front end comes up as Unsecure.

    Not sure why that is.
    Getting the host to check into it.

    Didn't help.

    I did more reading on opencart forum and it's the coding that is the issue and nobody seems to have fixed it.

    The suggested temporary fixes are:

    Enabling SSL in the OpenCart Dashboard

    Log into the OpenCart Dashboard
    Go to System > Settings
    Click on the Server tab
    Check the radio button to use SSL
    Enabling SSL in the OpenCart directory config.php file

    Log into cPanel and go to File Manager
    Navigate to your OpenCart installation directory
    Open (Edit or Code Editor) the configuration file (config.php)
    Look for the lines below // HTTPS that looks similar to this:

    define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'http://opencart.inmotiontesting.com/');
    define('HTTPS_IMAGE', 'http://opencart.inmotiontesting.com/image/');

    Edit the HTTPS settings to reflect your SSL URL path. For example:
    define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://opencart.inmotiontesting.com/');
    define('HTTPS_IMAGE', 'https://opencart.inmotiontesting.com/image/');

    Save changes and close the config.php file
    Enabling SSL in the OpenCart Admin folder config.php file

    Go to the “Admin” folder
    Open (Edit or Code Editor) the configuration file (config.php)
    Look for the lines below // HTTPS that looks similar to this:

    define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'http://opencart.inmotiontesting.com/admin/');
    define('HTTPS_CATALOG', 'http://opencart.inmotiontesting.com/');
    define('HTTPS_IMAGE', 'http://opencart.inmotiontesting.com/image/');

    Edit the HTTPS settings to reflect your SSL URL path. For example:
    define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://opencart.inmotiontesting.com/admin/');
    define('HTTPS_CATALOG', 'https://opencart.inmotiontesting.com/');
    define('HTTPS_IMAGE', 'https://opencart.inmotiontesting.com/image/');

    Save changes and close the config.php file


    Unfortunately the config.php file doesn't have these lines, and the admin/config.php doesn't exist.
    So as far as I can see with Arastta, it's not implementing the SSL correctly either.
    It's causing the images to appear as unsecure and causing the entire page to be unsecure.

    Trust me, the tips given in some of the search result does indeed help.
    Also, Arastta works perfectly well with SSL All Site. I run SSL on all sites I've set up.
    This is a administrator issue. Your design, modifications or content (like images inserted using full link with src http:// as mentioned in search results) ...

    Ok so resolved it by removing these items.

    So when using code from another website, what's the proper way to use it?
    if the other site isn't secure, and the site is http, how do you use it on a secure site without breaking the SSL?

    It's all written before, and available through Google. :)

    Short answer, if not available at https - don't use it!

    Thanks for the help here.
    Got it all cleaned up and converted the problem issues to work with https.
    All good now.
