This article will teach you how to locate and view your domain's information. Underneath the report download buttons, you will find some diagnostic information that will help you decide whether you are ready to turn on the Always Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).

Instructions

  1. Navigate to the Site Properties module:The expanded Modules menu, with the Site Properties module selected.

    1. Expand the Modules menu

    2. Click the Site Tools tab

    3. Select Site Properties

  2. Select the Mixed Content Report tab:The Mixed Content Report tab highlighted in the Site Properties module.

  3. View Primary SSL Domain, Redirect Domains, and Unsafe Redirects:An example of the 'Primary SSL Domain', 'Redirect Domains' and 'Unsafe Domains' sections of a Mixed Content Report.

Primary SSL Domain

  • When Always SSL is enabled, by default, all HTTP traffic to your site will be redirected to this domain:Primary SSL domain and redirection instructions for site traffic management.

  • Accordingly, this domain must have a valid SSL binding. If not, you will see an error message, and you will not be able to turn on Always SSL:A pop-up error message that says 'Oops. No valid bindings exist for this domain'.

Redirect Domains

  • This table will indicate the status of any redirects set up on your site:The Redirect Domains section with three invalid and one valid SSL bindings.

  • If your site has multiple domains (such as a Department Header Package), each of these domains will need a valid SSL binding. Otherwise, any HTTP traffic to a domain without a valid binding will be redirected to the Primary SSL domain. Domains without SSL bindings will be highlighted in red. You may still choose to turn on Always SSL, but it's important to be aware that this effectively disables HTTP traffic for any domain highlighted in red.

Unsafe Redirect Domains

  • This section will only be visible if any problematic redirects are found. Because Always SSL forces a redirect from http://domain to https://domain, any redirects with absolute destination URLs indicating HTTP will result in an infinite redirect loop. If you see any redirects here, make sure they are changed to specify HTTPS before turning on Always SSL:The Unsafe Redirects section with an example list of unsafe domains.
