    URL: http://buzzrecruiting.net

    Migrating site now (don't ask, but had to set up a new account after site was fully built).

    Your form is working like a dream - so thanks...one less headache.

    A SSL certificate was bought for the http://buzzrecruiting.net/apply page. The hosting company will set that up, but I need to handle the migration from http to https. I'm sure this is a common thing you encounter. What I was wondering is if you advise using another plug-in to handle this OR if I should try to modify the .htaccess page. Keep in mind that I might sound like I know what I'm talking about, but trust me on this: never done it before and I'd like to do it right the first time!

    Thanks much!

    When I said migrating the site, I meant that you can't see the URL pages referenced right now. Just trying to get my ducks in a row for next steps.

    I would suggest using a plugin such as:

    http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-https/

    This isn't something we encounter often and it's something that is a server and WordPress configuration rather than a Gravity Forms configuration. I've never actually setup WordPress to use SSL, I just know that it is possible.

    I thought it might be, but I'm not too proud to ask for an opinion when I have no experience whatsoever! Thanks again!!

    I've done this. Had host set up the SSL then followed the steps: http://codex.wordpress.org/Administration_Over_SSL to secure your admin and installed the plugin WP-HTTP which controls which pages are loaded secure and which are not. Thanks for the tips. It works!
