Using gigya's share plugin - url shorten as https

Former Member — Wed, 19 Jun 2019 07:01:38 GMT

My company has recently switched our protocol from http to https but the url that's shared is an http URL which has been causing issues. Is it possible to change the URL to use https instead of http?

Hi Stephen,

The solution will really depend on how the Share Plugin was implemented in your site/property.

Usually, the Share Plugin accepts a "LinkBack" which is a link, typically to the content source, and this URL must be an absolute URL. Therefore, it is possible that a URL with http protocol was hardcoded in the page that is currently hosting the Share Bar.

I would suggest checking the code that injects the Share Plugin in your company's page, see if there is a "setLinkBack()" call with an http URL hardcoded. I hope this helps!
