Adding a SSL secure form to a HTTPS

    I'm currently applying for a SSL licence for http://www.rdac.co.uk/ to make it https://www.rdac.co.uk/

     

    1. When my site becomes https://www.rdac.co.uk/ will I be submitting your forms securely from my website?

    Will I still need to give users an alternative address such as https://secure.jotformeu.com/form/41802526783356

     

    Thanks Chris

    Hi Chris,

    If you are using the old link (that goes over http) you would be sending them to unsecured forms, so you should use the link that you have mentioned above (with both https:// and secure.jotformeu.com in the link)

    You could also use form by iFrame embedding it on your own site with the secure URL.

    And just paste that code to your page :)

    Hello Chris,

    @BaneD has already explained you on how to receive SSL submission. Let me try to answer your other questions:

    1. When my site becomes https://www.rdac.co.uk/ will I be submitting your forms securely from my website?

    No your form will not start automatically receiving SSL submissions. You will have to actually grab your form's SSL embed code and use it to embed it in your web page. The following guide should help you:  http://www.jotform.com/help/63-How-can-I-receive-SSL-Submissions 

     

    Will I still need to give users an alternative address such as https://secure.jotformeu.com/form/41802526783356

    If you have already embedded your form in your web page using SSL embed code, you do not have to share your form's direct URL with them. When they go to your web page, they will be able to see the SSL embedded form.

    Hope this answers your query.

    Do get back to us if you have any questions.

    Thank you!
