Hi Stefan, thanks for the fix, it works great.

I mad a small addition to the code, to allow the custom property to be set either by channel or posting:
right after we check the channel...

if (RequireSSL == false)
{
if (CmsHttpContext.Current.Posting.CustomProperties["RequireSSL"] != null)

RequireSSL = (CmsHttpContext.Current.Posting.CustomProperties["RequireSSL"].Value).ToLower() == "yes";
}

Hi Stefan,

one more small change... I wrapped the whole thing in a try...catch because it was throwing a server error when you clicked on "channel properties" in the web editor.

Hi Chris,

I tried to repro your problem but on my systems everything works fine.
Could you please tell me when the problem occurs?

Cheers,
Stefan.

Hi Stefan,

It happened every time I clicked the "channel properties" link on the floating console, in any page on the site. All I did was add a catch that returns nothing, and everything is fine now.

Hi Chris,

ok, I'm not able to repro it in your scenario. But I can repro it using forms authentication when the redirect to the login page happens.

I have adjusted the sample above.
Thanks for the heads-up!

Cheers,
Stefan.
