I have a two websites
yourdomain.com
reseller.yourdomain.com
Now I want to forcing both domains to use https via apache htaccess redirect. In addition to that, the main domain should use always www instead of non-www. But the subdomain reseller.yourdomain.com shouldn't use www of course.
How should the redirect look like? I have tried so many things like
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !^on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^reseller\.yourdomain\.com [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
This works not 100%, the main domain redirects correctly to www and ssl, the ssl-redirect for the subomdain works only on reseller.yourdomain.com, not on sub-sites like reseller.yourdomain.com/single-page.
thanks!
Try it like this,
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^yourdomain.com
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.+)\.yourdomain.com$
RewriteRule ^ https://%1.yourdomain.com [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]
I'm wanting to minimise redirects whilst forcing https and www.
Trying to get...
http://example.com
...to go straight to...
https://www.example.com
... in one redirect. Not three, two, or even the 19 I had at one stage! I'm stuck at having one redirect for the www. bit, and then another redirect for the https bit.
Currently have this in my .htacess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.com/$1 [R=301]
I was about to concede defeat, feeling that it's not possible to combine two rules into one... but then I discovered Amazon.com have it implemented! Wondering how? Does this involve doing something outside of .htacess?

To force https and www in one redirect, you can use
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?(.+)$
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%1%{REQUEST_URI} [NE,L,R]
Try it like this,
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
I have a RewriteRule that redirects my main domain to https://www.sta-games.com which works fine, but when I try to access my subdomain http://files.sta-games.com, it redirects to my main domain.
Heres my redirect rules
#HTTPS Redirection
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
Can anyone see the problem?
You need to adjust your rules so that it looks for the whole domain instead of just part of it. Right now you are only looking for the absence of www. So that is why your subdomain redirects.
First you need to combine your rules because it seems you want to redirect if https is not on and there is no www, so make that one rule. Then use your actual domain name in the rule. Replace example.com with your domain. This should fix your issue.
#HTTPS Redirection
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(www\.)?example\.com
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
Have an additional skip condition for all domains except the main domain:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?sta-games\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.sta-games.com%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301,NE]
Test this after clearing your browser cache.
I'm attempting to setup an SSL redirect in Apache using RewriteEngine that will do the following:
Redirect traffic to either http://mydomain.com or http://www.mydomain.com to use HTTPS
Redirect traffic to any other subdomain https://*.mydomain.com to use HTTP instead of HTTPS
My reasoning for this is that I'm developing a project that's using a free SSL certificate until launch. This certificate covers the base domain, but none of the wildcard subdomains, and it's a pain to need to bypass the warning every time I visit one of the subdomains.
Edit:
I believe I'm close here, but I still can't get the HTTPS to HTTP redirect to work properly.
RewriteEngine on
# Redirect domain and www to HTTPS
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} =mydomain.com [or]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} =www.mydomain.com
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
# Redirect wildcard subdomains to HTTP
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.+)\.mydomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
Figured it out. By moving these rules from the sites-available/default file to an .htaccess inside of the website root, I was able to get this working properly.
RewriteEngine on
# Redirect domain and www to HTTPS
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} =mydomain.com [or]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} =www.mydomain.com
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
# Redirect wildcard subdomains to HTTP
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.+)\.mydomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !=www.mydomain.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
