If I have multiple domains (*.net, *.org, *.com) pointing to the same dir on the server with a single .htaccess file, how can I write a redirect that changes the url as well as redirects to the https:// secure connection of the site?
So if they visit http://korell.com, it goes to https://korell.com and if they visit http://korell.org, it does to https://korell.org. And so on and so forth.
I already have www.korell.* going to http://korell.* in the A records.
You can use:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [NE,L,R=301]

Let me explain my setup here, I have two domains, for the sake of naming them lets call them domain1.com and domain2.com. I have shared hosting that runs cPanel.
Domain1.com is my main domain, and is what I have my hosting account setup using. I have a website hosted at that domain. Domain2.com is set as an add-on domain, and directs to a folder inside of the main domains root. That has it's own website (a Ghost blog).
That all works fine. However the websites hosted at the two domains are quite different and I did not want the subdomain to work, but as far as I can tell add-on domains in cPanel have to have a subdomain in order to be added to the account. The redirect options for the subdomains in cPanel aren't good enough for me, as I wanted anyone accessing say domain1.com/domain2 to get a 404 error as if it didn't exist. So I set up the .htaccess file for domain1.com to look like this:
RewriteEngine On
#301 (permenant) redirects all HTTP requests to HTTPS (SSL)
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
#404 redirects all domain.com/subdomain requests
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?domain1.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/domain2/(.*)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [L,R=404]
#404 redirects all subdomain.domain.com & www.subdomain.domain.com requests
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain2.domain1.co.uk$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain2.domain1.co.uk$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [L,R=404]
This worked perfectly, anyone tryting to access domain2 via domain1 would get a 404 error. But that was before I installed Ghost on domain2 After getting Ghost installed I created an .htaccess file in the domain2 folder inside of domain1's root.I had to put this in it in order for Ghost for to run, as it uses NodeJS:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://127.0.0.1:55555555/$1 [P,L]
This also works perfectly except for one aspect. Now all requests to the domain using domain1.com have started working again. For example if I type domain2.domain1.com it will now show me the Ghost blog where as before it was correctly displaying a 404 Not Found error. Why is this and how do I go about rectifying this issue?
As a side note, I also started trying to have all http requests redirect to https. I added the following to the domain1.com htaccess file as I wanted all requests on both domains to redirect to https and I assumed this was necessary:
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
Now this kind of works. All requests, whatever they are (with or without www for instance), redirect to https, and when I visit it in my browser I get a green the icon indicating it's secured with SSL. Again even with this the previous issue of the domain redirect still doesn't work. But I have another odd issue here.
If I type in my browser simply "domain1.com" (ie without https:// or www. or a combination of the two), it will show just "domain1.com" in the address bar but with the green icon and say it is secured. If however I type in "domain2.com" (again with no https:// or www etc.) it does the same thing except it states it is not secure, suggesting it requested http.
And yet if I type in www.domain2.com or http://domain2.com, that works and I get the secured icon. It is highly puzzling. It seems that the https redirect works on every request except for just "domain2.com" while any other variation (www.domain2.com, http://domain2.com etc) works fine. Any clues? I mean clearly I've done something wrong with the htaccess files but I don't know what, I got most of what I'd put in them from searching sites like Stackexchange, but personally I don't really know anything about them or how they work.
I think I have fixed my own problem here.
I corrected the main htaccess so the https redirect acts like this;
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
From what I can tell it's better to do it this way than the way I had it previously. This in itself didn't fix the problems. What fixed it for me is editing the domain2.com htaccess to look like this:
RewriteEngine on
#Force WWW if it isn't in the request
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC,OR]
#Or include WWW even if it is in the request
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\. [NC]
#Then Force it to use https
RewriteRule .* https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
#Defines this domain so main htaccess rules for subdomains work
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)?domain2.com$ [NC]
#Proxy for Ghost
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://127.0.0.1:55555555/$1 [P,L]
Now everything works. All requests are redirected to https. All requests to the subdomain from the main domain fail with a 404. domain2.com now redirects to https://www.domain2.com or https://domain2.com so it is now always secured by SSL. I'm a novice at htaccess as is probably evident and I've no doubt some or all of this could have unnecessary elements removed or simplified so if anyone wants to correct my syntax so it's less messy I'd appreciate it.
I have been scratching my head over this for past couple of hours. I need to redirect all the content on my website from https to http.
I added the following code in my .htaccess file.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
RewriteRule (.*) http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
Now, this code successfully redirects from https://example.com to http://example.com. But does not redirect https://example/foo.html to http://example/foo.html.
I'm losing way too much traffic due to this.
Thanks.
Variations on this question have been asked, and so I apologize in advance -- I simply cannot get this to work. I know the devil is in the details with the .htaccess, so I'm sure I'm missing something small.
Here's what have:
I have a page: example.com/ which redirects all traffic to its https equivalent. I'm building the next version of the same site inside of the directory example.com/example.com/ I'm trying to write a redirect that will send all traffic to its https equivalent except for the directory that I'm working in, which should be left alone. My problem is, whenever I try to access example.com/example.com/ I get redirected to the 404 of example.com (which makes sense). I just can't get the redirect to not loop indefinitely.
I currently have a redirect from http to https for example.com as follows:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://example.com/$1 [R,L]
This works just fine, and only causes troubles when I try to access the subfolder.
tl;dr
Here's what I need:
http://example.com/ REDIRECTS TO https://example.com/
http://example.com/[anything else] REDIRECTS TO https://example.com/[anything else]
https://example.com/example.com/ SHOULD NOT REDIRECT
Try:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !example.com
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://example.com/$1 [L]
I recently installed my SSL certificate, and I'm attempting to enforce a https connection to all my pages. However, previously I also redirected all requests to the www version of the request page. When combining an http redirect to https and concurrently redirecting traffic to www, I get a looping redirect warning on browsers. Hence, how can I make .htcaccess rule (I actually just use the directory config file) that will achieve what i want: always https://'www'
Here's the current combination that I have:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
RewriteRule ^/(.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}$1 [NC,R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain.com
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.mydomain.com$1 [R=301,L]
Your question is a duplicate of htaccess redirect to https://www
Also, you can solve the WWW problem with DNS by simply pointing your naked domain to WWWizer's free naked domain redirect service's IP 174.129.25.170
Google has been indexing duped content. SEO nightmare...
I have two forms which need SSL.
/single
/joint
I'd like everything else to be redirected back to non ssl (http://)
I've tried various different things from the forums here, numerous times...
How do I enable https only on certain pages with htaccess?
The first part always works, that is, https redirects to http but the /single & /joint will redirect to index.php or the "home page"
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Try to be more clear...
With Jon's code added to the .htaccess file
https .com/other-page
redirects to http .com/other-page
But the ones that matter
https .com/single & .com/joint
Both redirect to
http .com/index.php
Here is a link to the standard Joomla .htaccess file
http://docs.joomla.org/Preconfigured_htaccess
In addition I am using rewrite rules to redirect www to non www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^website.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://website.com/$1 [R=301,L]
Add these rules to the htaccess file in your document root:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(single|joint) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
RewriteRule !^(single|joint) http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
as long as the form is submitted as a GET request. The request body in a POST submission may not be included after a redirect.
