I am developing a site that mixes http and https a lot - whats the best/easiest way to make the links use the right protocol for the route - can it be specified in the route
You can use a plugin called ss_requirement, it will provide you with methods like ssl_required ssl_allowed
You can simply add this in your controller to enable ot disable https on any action
ssl_allowed :login, :update_profile
