I have a domain example.com and in .htaccess, I am forwarding non-www to www address using below code.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
Now I created a subdomain test.example.com and because of above rule, its going to http://www.test.example.com, so I thought to write it's own htaccess file to redirect www to non-www. So in the subdomain root, I have .htaccess file with below rule.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^test\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://test.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
It's not working and going in a redirect loop, how do I fix it?
Take out the ! and the escapes
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^test.example.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://test.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
You don't need 2 rules. Just keep this rule in main .htaccess for your main domain:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [NE,R=301,L]
Now RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com$ condition will only impact main domain leaving your sub domain untouched.
I found a very easy solution for this problem.
My main site document root was /home/example/public_html and subdomain document root was /home/example/public_html/test.
I just changed the document root of subdomain to /home/example/test and it worked.

My situtation is that multiple domains share a htaccess file and I need to redirect the root / to each language folder.
So I want ONLY the root / of each domain to be redirected like:
www.my-en.com/ to redirect to /en/
and
www.my-de.de/ to redirect to /de/
Unfortunately I need to accomplish this with htaccess as I CANNOT change any other settings.
So far all solutions I found look like this
redirct 301 /old-path http://www.new-domain.com
which will always be applied to all domains using the htaccess.
You can use:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?my-en\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^$ http://www.my-en.com/en/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?my-de\.de$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^$ http://www.my-de.de/de/ [R=301,L]
# Redirect others to www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [NE,L,R=301]
I want to redirect via .htaccess directives all these:
http://domain.com AND www.domain.com AND http://subdomain.domain.com
TO :
https://subdomain.domain.com
Please note that "subdomain" is an unique subdomain, I do not want to redirect any subdomain but only one.
I'm not familiar with .htaccess directives so I tried all RewriteRule or Redirect snippet found here or elsewere, but it's not working. I must miss something.
EDIT: I added a .htaccess into sur directory of subdomain with this and it works now:
It's OK, I added this in htaccess into the subdirectory of subdomain :
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule .* https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
Try with:
# for main domain
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://subdomain.domain.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]
# for sub domain
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?subdomain\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://subdomain.domain.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]
I want to redirect only main subdomain like
http://dl.domain.com to domain.com
but not redirect files or script links to main domain.
http://dl.domain.com/123.zip
http://dl.domain.com/zippy.zip etc
How I can do this with .htaccess rules?
I use these .htaccess rules but problem not solve
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?subdomain\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule !^xyz\.php($|/) http://www.domain.com%{REQUEST_URI} [NE,R=301,L]
You can use:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?subdomain\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/?$ http://www.domain.com [R=301,L]
I need to redirect all subdomains of my website to the main domain starting with www:
I have tried to add this code to my .htaccess:
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^domain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [L,R=301]
but I have a redirect loop error.
What do you suggest?
Thanks
Your rule will indeed cause redirect loop. Have it like this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [L,R=301,NE]
If you want demo.domain.com to be redirected to www.domain.com:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [L,R=301,NE]
I'm using this code in my .htaccess file at the root directory of the domain or subdomain
Redirect all requests from subdomain:
Redirect / http://www.example.com/
Redirect all requests from folder sub on the domain to the subdomain:
Redirect /sub http://sub.example.com/
I have a website say http://www.example.com/ in the root of my website, I have added .htaccess file to redirect any request of http://example.com/ to http://www.example.com/
Recently I have created a new section "Videos" so the URL for videos is http://www.example.com/videos/ . In this video folder I have another htaccess file which is performing rewriting for video entries. When I am trying to access http://example.com/videos/ then its not redirecting me to http://www.example.com/videos/
I think .htacces is not inheriting the previous rules from the parent directory. Can anyone please tell me what can be the rule I can add in the .htaccess file of /videos/ folder so that any request for http://example.com/videos/ will be redirected to http://www.example.com/videos/ URL.
This is a more generic solution, because it can be used with any domain name without having to specify the specific domain name in each .htaccess:
# Redirect non-www to www:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
The contrary is also possible (www to non-www):
# Redirect www to non-www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1/$1 [R=301,L]
I think it may just be that your existing rule is too strict, and is not getting triggered in your subdirectory because of this. Something like this should work site-wide:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301]
This is Best Solutions to redirect non-www to www URL's using htaccess. using this code in htaccess file and check url.

RewriteEngine on

rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.mydomain.com/$1 [r=301,nc]
I recommend everyone to stick with the below method it will only redirect the main domain only not any other sub-directory or sub-domain in your host.
# Redirect non-www to www only for main domain
# recommended if you have any/some sub-domain(s)
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
# Replace yoursite and .tld respectively
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^yoursite\.tld$
# Replace yoursite.com
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.yoursite.com/$1 [R=301]
Use this method if you are really sure and I hope you will that you won't ever use sub-domain with your website i.e. subdomain.yoursite.com or whatever. Than you're welcome to use the below method.
"Saying Again make sure if you really want to use this method"
# Redirect all non-www to www including subdomain(s)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
The below method will redirect all www url to non-www including your sub-domains although you cannot use www.subdirecty.yoursite.com it will prompt you an error with 500.
# Redirect www to non-www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1/$1 [R=301,L]
