https for user registration

Hi,
I am using buddypress to create a closed community discussion forum. While registering, the information provided by the users is sensitive and I need to pass the information via SSL.

I have used the WordPress HTTPS plugin to force the administration of the site & the login form via https. However, I also need the user registration & profile editing page to be passed securely. I am forcing https by targetting the urls via my .htacess file.

Is there a cleaner way for this –
A plugin that I can use to specify the registration page, settings page for editing user information via https. I am new to wordpress – does it even make sense to write a plugin for this?

Thanks,
Gokul A

There is no need to re-post this. I saw a thread with the same message the the other day, and if I wasn’t on my phone, I’d find it and close this one.

I am guessing that there would probably need to be a bunch of changes in BuddyPress core to do this, so you probably couldn’t do it with just a plugin. If you end up changing BuddyPress, consider contributing your changes as an enhancement request on http://BuddyPress.trac.WordPress.org
