Could do with some explanation of exactly how the SSL side of things works, at what point does cubecart switch to SSL???

Was it really worth me getting a SSL certificate if it does not use it???

SSL - Security Socket Layer - using it, makes comunication between browser (client) and server more secure. Other words - comunication is ciphered.

CC has ability to operate with or without it, but main role is on server side.

But at what point in a transaction does the store switch to SSL?

By the way it does not work when activated, I am fast getting fed up with all the problems as I have to get a store up and running within 48 hours.

Thanks for trying to help convict but I have now removed cube cart and I am uploading Zen Cart as I type this, at least it works out of the box.

It really is a shame that cube cart has very little support for potential customers as I like the way it works and was looking forward to using it in quite a few new online stores I have been asked to set up by the local community.

Let me know when it is ready to go live Brooky and I will try it again.

Have you used the helpdesk? The forum is comminuty-based... no-one on here gets paid, and we all just do it to try and help one another...

Try http://www.cubecart.com/site/support/ to contact brooky directly.

:errm:

I thought that was just for customers that have purchased a Licence.

Why do we need SSL if the payments are being made via a Merchant account on their website???
