Simple SSL Extension for TYPO3
This TYPO3 extension allows to simply activate SSL for a full domain., (*1)
The goals are simple for sure:
* Security made simple.
* Having HTTPS-only websites increases SEO rankings.
* We wanted to create a helpful and useful tool for administrators to handle SSL for a full domain,
and not just for a page (as TYPO3 ships by default)., (*2)
Requirements
A webserver with SSL enabled for a domain and - of course - a running TYPO3 instance., (*3)
Installation
Install the extension via TER (extension key "simplessl") or composer (composer require cmsexperts/simplessl
)
and make sure the Extension Manager has the extension activated., (*4)
Once this is done, feel free to configure your domain records via the list module and activate SSL for a specific
domain. Everything else is taken care of., (*5)
Important notes
Because we want to make TYPO3 easier to use, this extension also disables the possibility to set the scheme on a
per page basis. If you already use this feature (pages.url_scheme) you should not use this extension, as the two
paradigma don't go along quite well., (*6)
Contribute
Maintenance of the TYPO3 extension is handled by the CMS experts through this GitHub Repository., (*7)
Feel free to put any pull request to the repository, or put ideas in the issue tracker., (*8)
