If I have SSL installed on the server but no Redirect to HTTPS set up yet does the website appear as before? (Does the HTTPS prefix force the page to use the SSL?)

if people don't type in https, and you have no redirect, they will always be on the non secure version.. you have to tell them to enter https, and/or enable a redirect that automatically converts/redirects folks to https.

Good reply, BadFrog thumbsup

Here is the .htaccess code to do exactly what BadFrog is talking about:

Code
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
