How do I disable SSL?

In order to disable SSL in your Zen Cart store, you will need to change includes/configure.php and admin/includes/configure.php.

in includes/configure.php find the following code:

// Define the webserver and path parameters
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.YOUR_SHOP.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.YOUR_SHOP.com');
define('ENABLE_SSL', 'false');

in admin/includes/configure.phpfind the following code:

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.YOUR_SHOP.com');

define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'false');
define('ENABLE_SSL_ADMIN', 'false');

Make the changes indicated by the highlighted text.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Remember, your configure.php files are probably marked read-only. You'll need to change them to read-write in order to upload your updates, and then put them back to read-only. See the FAQ on setting file permissions.
