I have an application with CodeIgniter and I always have to force the connection to always redirect to https
.
I did this:
config\config.php
line
$config['enable_hooks']
to TRUE
. Within config\hooks.php
I added the lines.
$hook['post_controller_constructor'][] = array(
'function' => 'redirect_ssl',
'filename' => 'ssl.php',
'filepath' => 'hooks'
);
In the hooks
folder, I created the file ssl.php
with the following function:
function redirect_ssl() {
$CI =& get_instance();
$class = $CI->router->fetch_class();
$exclude = array('client'); // add more controller name to exclude ssl.
if(!in_array($class,$exclude)) {
// redirecting to ssl.
$CI->config->config['base_url'] = str_replace('http://', 'https://', $CI->config->config['base_url']);
if ($_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] != 443) redirect($CI->uri->uri_string());
} else {
// redirecting with no ssl.
$CI->config->config['base_url'] = str_replace('https://', 'http://', $CI->config->config['base_url']);
if ($_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] == 443) redirect($CI->uri->uri_string());
}
}
After performing the test the page up and redirected to https://
more comes the error in Chrome:
