I'm trying to create an htaccess file in the root directory that will also affect subdomain directories (the subdomain works from a directory in the root).
Firstly, will this work if I have one htaccess file in the root? (will it work for subdomains in browsers (as they are actually just directories from root?) ).
The problem that I'm having is that when I try to visit http://demo.example.com, instead of it redirecting to https://demo.example.com it just remains using http://. This also is the case when trying to view http://www.example.com (it doesn't redirect to https).
This is my entire htaccess file as it currently stands. It seems quite bloated to me. Is there a way I can just redirect everything to https, regardless of subdomain / root ?
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
# redirect subdomain to https
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?!www\.)([^.]+)\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?(example\.com)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]
</IfModule>
Can you try these rules in your site root .htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
# add www and https to main domain
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?(example\.com)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]
# redirect everything to https
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]
Test it in a new browser or completely clear your browser cache before testing.

I couldn't find a question that answered mine, or maybe I couldn't search using the right terms, but come on. I have the following rule in my htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.com\.br$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.domain\.com\.br$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ "https\:\/\/www\.domain\.com\.br\/site" [R=301,L]
This works when the user enters only the URL (domain.com.br or www.domain.com.br), but I need it to redirect when the user accesses this way:
domain.com.br or www.domain.com.br --> https://www.domain.com.br/site
domain.com.br/XXX --> https://www.domain.com.br/XXX
What rule should I use for this?
Update: the server already has a default rule to force SSL, in which case it is unnecessary to put it in htaccess
Rule update:
**On virtual host:**
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
**On htaccess file:**
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.com\.br$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.domain\.com\.br$
RewriteRule ^/?$ https://www.domain.com.br/site/ [R=301,L]
Your code generates a redirect loop. Also, you don't need to escape slashes on targets.
You could merge everything inside your virtual host block (faster than using a htaccess):
RewriteEngine On
# force https
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
# force www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
# redirect root directory to /site/
RewriteRule ^/?$ /site/ [R=301,L]
Of course, you will see a redirect chain for e.g. http://domain.tld/ as it will first redirect to https://domain.tld/ then to https://www.domain.tld/ and finally to https://www.domain/tld/site/. This is fine. However, if you really want to handle everything with only one redirect, you could. But, it will be less generic.
For instance, you would end up with those rules:
RewriteEngine On
# force root directory to /site/ (https+www)
RewriteRule ^/?$ https://www.domain.com.br/site/ [R=301,L]
# force any other pages to https+www if not the case already
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.domain.com.br%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
I made the switch of my website from http to https. Now, I want to 301 redirect all http content to https.
I want to use this rule:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
The issue is I also have another rule already in place which redirects all non-www pages to www ones.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.example.com/$1 [last,redirect=301]
How can I combine it so whatever link users write (http non-www ; http www ; https non-www) all redirect to https://www.example.com
Cheers!
You can use this single rule to add www and http->https in single rule:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]
This rule should be kept just below RewriteEngine line and make sure to clear your browser cache when testing this change.
I'm trying to add a single subdomain to an existing website. We've added the appropriate 'A' record. We want staging.example.com to display the contents from example.com/test/ (and remain staging.example.com).
The .htaccess file (written by someone else) redirects all non-https to https, and all non-www to www:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
#Rewrite http to https
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L]
#Rewrite non-www to www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www\.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
I tried to add a line like the following, just before the last RewriteRule:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^staging\.(.+)$ [NC]
However, it always gets in a redirect loop to www.staging.example.com ...
Suggestions much appreciated.
This is because you are directing BACK to HTTP with your WWW redirect. Change it to https:
EDIT
I would also invert your statments .. This is EXACTLY what I use -- And I can verify it works for me:
RewriteEngine On
# to www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
# to https
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
We are running a web-site with both HTTP and HTTPs protocols. We need a rule for .htaccess file where we can handle these requests i.e. non-https page should redirect with http:// and https page should redirect with https:// protocol.
We are using apache. Any help would greatly appreciate.
Add this to your .htaccess file at your site's root directory.
RewriteEngine on
# Force http://
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} =on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(/|/dl/memorandum.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/ [R=301,L]
# Force SSL
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/contact$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
You can match on multiple pages by using the | OR operator.
^/(contact|profile|transactions)$ [NC]
If the URLs are long you can drop the $ and do a prefix match as
^/(contact|profile|transactions) [NC]
This will match on /contact-page or /contact/page as well now.
Use negation to force HTTP on all the rules that do not require SSL.
RewriteEngine on
# Force http://
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} =on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(contact|login|cart|register|forgot-your-password|request)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
# Force SSL
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(contact|login|cart|register|forgot-your-password|request)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
I have a problem with .htaccess forcing www.
I have the main site http://www.portalesardegna.com and I want to redirect http://portalesardegna.com to the www version, but I have even a CDN, http://cdn.portalesardegna.com, if I look the site with pingdom http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/eHy16D/www.portalesardegna.com all the files in the cdn are redirected to the www version.
Some information that can be useful:
The CDN is on an external service, and the dns point to another server, not mine.
I have some images from another subdomain in my site, private3.portalesardegna.com, and all of these images are not redirected.
Here is the code i use in the htaccess
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^cdn\..+$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\..+$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
Try this rule as as your very first rule in your root .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(cdn|www)\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]
