Nginx/Django SSL Configuration for a specific sub page

I have an nginx/gunicorn/supervisor/posrgresql server with Django. I server two web pages from this server, with each with its own nginx conf file. I have purchased and downloaded SSL certificates and they are working in some circumstances.

My nginx conf file looks like this:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name name.org;
    return 301 https://www.name.org;
{

server {
    listen 80;
    listen 443 ssl;
    server_name www.name.org;

    ssl_certificate...

}

And so on. What I want to happen is this:

Either

1.) entire site with all pages https

or

2.) one particular sub-page with https, e.g. https://www.name.org/page, no matter how you get there, name.org/page, https://www.name.org/page, www.name.org/page, internal links, etc. The point is I need to serve THAT page over SSL.

Currently, name.org takes you to my home page https. www.name.org does not. I can go to any page on my site, and then enter that page name in the address bar, like https://www.name.org/anypage, and it will reload with the green lock.

I've been looking on stackoverflow, nginx documentation, godaddy (where I purchased my certificates) and everywhere else I can think to search for hours and cannot find anything, so any help will be quite welcome.

Change your first server block to include the www subdomain:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name name.org www.name.org;
    return 301 https://www.name.org;
}

This will redirect both http://name.org and http://www.name.org to https://www.name.org. After you've done that, you can remove the listen 80; from your second server block, as the first one covers that name / port combination, and you'll only be dealing with the ssl version from then on.
