I have been trying to do use SSL for the joomla site of a client of mine and have been unable to do it through configuration.php or index.php

here is the simple but effective solution:

insert this code in the .htaccess file for your domain name. Create one if you don't have it.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.com/$1 [R,L]

replace example.com with your domain name and ou just got it. Make sure you have ssl already installed orelse it will show off a error about security.

The flypage is basically the page on which the virtuemart product get’s displayed.
Flypages can be configured as per category/sub category.

Stop Joomla Registration Email.

Basically in joomla there are two types of registration done!

  1. Using Activation.(User get's an email with login details and activation link)
  2. Without activation. (user get’s an email just with username and confirming the registration)
  3. Method three: (stop both these emails)

I found if you want to disable the annoying email when a front end user joins your site, I had to alter:
/administrator/components/com_users/controller.php Line 522
comment out:
//JUtility::sendMail($mailfrom, $fromname, $row->email, $subject2, $message2);
