How to config for ssl?

[thinksales]

At time of install I did not have SSL so SSl was not enabled. I now have SSL but I cannot find anywhere in admin to "turn on" or "configure" for SSl connection. How do I enable SSL?

If you purchased ssl and it is installed then you have to edit your paths and set ssl to true in catalog/includes/configure.php and your admin/includes/configuration.php

yes.. i have the certif and all. So the paths have to manually be edited? How do you know what files to edit? are they only in the config files?

I've only been testing and playing.. Would it be easier to just reinstall with th ssl option?

Just the 2 config files need to be edited It will give you the breakdown in the thread I pasted to make it easier.
