"HTTPS"

I am sure we have covered this before, but do Freeola supports secure servers? we are trying to create custom payment pages for paypal, and they Paypal prefer the images on secure servers, at present I cant get the images to work on normal servers so I assume that it needs HTTPS to make the custom pages work?

I've just integrated 'PayPal' into two of my customer sites with no problem. Both sites are hosted through freeola/get dotted. Added the 'PayPal' link and 'payment' image to page code and no problem. Works a treat eg

Hope this helps :-)

Hi Digi,
when this has been mentioned In the past Freeola have said it may come in the future.

PayPal custom pages are a 'must' if you want to use PayPal but still want to make things look as professional as possible!

Two work-a-rounds for you:

1/
As a Freeola ADSL customer you have access to a Free Instant site. You could upload your PayPal header/logo to the image 'store' which happens to be an HTTPS location. You can then successfully use this image on PayPal without any 'secure/non-secure' warning messages! The address of the image doesn't contain the Instant Site address (uses a 'sitebuilder' one) so it works well.

2/
Or I've successfully used and can recommend the free services of www.sslpic.com which also allows you to host your PayPal header/logo on an HTTPS address. Again it works well.

Hope that helps :¬)
