How to Set Up HTTPS for Joomla


NOTE: You need to purchase & install SSL certificate first before you can proceed with this tutorial



  1. Login to your Joomla Administrator dashboard and click on System → Global Configuration



  1. Click on Server tab and scroll down to Server Settings section.




  1. Click on the drop down box on Force HTTPS and see the available HTTPS option.


Administrator Only - this will secure only the backend of your website. This means that only administrator pages will be loaded using https, the frontend will work via http.


Entire Site - this will secure the entire website and make all pages work via https. This is the recommended option.
