TTW configuration of virtual_hosting mapping to serve Plone site over https

Plone Support
#1

Normally I do this in Apache or nginx with a rewrite like this:

RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://localhost:8080/VirtualHostBase/https/yoursite.com:443/Plone/VirtualHostRoot/$1 [P,L]

Today I'm working with the TTW virtual_hosting (no access to configure the proxy).

Is there a way to set a mapping in {myinstance}/virtual_hosting/ so that https will work?

How to use X-Forwarded-Proto in plone and still let VHM mapping direct to the right root

I figured it out, putting this in the virtual_hosting mappings worked for me.

example.com/VirtualHostBase/https/example.com/Plone

explanation:

example.com represents the URL of my site
/VirtualHostBase/https/example.com forces zope to serve example.com over https://
/Plone represents the path to my plone site
