Heroku recently added an exciting new 'Hostname SSL' option.  This option offers the broad compatibility of IP-based SSL, but at 1/5 the price ($20 / month at the time of this writing).  
 
The following tutorial explains how to use Heroku's new 'Hostname SSL' option on your Heroku project.  Before we begin, let's list what we're using here:

    * Heroku Hostname SSL
    * GoDaddy Standard SSL Certificate

# Setting up a polymorphic factory for a join table
# Since rosterable is not the default name of the model we are calling, we can't use the convenience method
# that is used for area (f.association)
# All we have to do is fall back to the block way of doing it, calling f.rosterable and passing in the
# object you want to populate it with ( in this case a template). This will fill in both rosterable_id
# and rosterable_type for us

Factory.define(:template_rostered_area, :class => RosteredArea) do |f|
  f.association :area
  f.rosterable { |a| a.association(:template)}
