I am trying to use htaccess to automatically direct all requests to certain pages to https and everything else to http://
Here is the code I've got the code to force ssl working below
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
RewriteRule ^va-homebuyers-guide https://domain.com/va-homebuyers-guide/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
RewriteRule ^va-purchase-request https://domain.com/va-purchase-request/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
RewriteRule ^va-streamline-refinance https://domain.com/va-streamline-refinance/ [R=301,L]
This is working as expected and redirects to the ssl versions of those pages. I then tried adding the following to redirect everything else to http:
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^80
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^va-homebuyers-guide$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^va-purchase-request$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^va-streamline-refinance$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://domain.com/$1 [R,L]
This code results in a redirect loop when going to /va-purchase-request /va-homebuyers-guide and /va-streamline-refinance and does not redirect the other pages at all.
I'm totally stuck with this and any help would be massively appreciated!
Edit:
I also have this code in the .htaccess file added by wordpress... Could it be interfering with the other redirects?
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Replace your .htaccess code with this:
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
# Turn mod_rewrite on
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^va-(homebuyers-guide|purchase-request|streamline-refinance)(/.*|)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
RewriteRule (?!^va-(homebuyers-guide|purchase-request|streamline-refinance)(/.*|)$)^.*$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NC]

I need to redirect any incoming traffic that is not www or https, to www and https.
The one issue is trying to add one more rule that would handle all traffic that used to be at rootdomain.com/blog/rest-of-url-title and send that to the subdomain https://blog.rootdomain.com/rest-of-url-title
This is what I have in my root domain htaccess
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^/blog/(.*)$ https://blog.rootdomain.com/$1 [R=302,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%1%{REQUEST_URI} [L,NE,R=302]
</IfModule>
Then within the blog subdomain directory htaccess I have this (to redirect any non https to https and the rest is Wordpress based)
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
When trying to hit any url that is rootdomain.com/blog/rest-of-url-title it redirects to
https://www.rootdomain.com/index.php
Instead of redirecting to the blog subdomain, it just goes to www and since that url title doesn't exist for www i just get 404.
I had to go with mod_alias redirectmatch to get it working how i wanted
RedirectMatch 302 ^/blog/(.*)$ https://blog.rootdomain.com/$1
It's odd because the mod_rewrite line in my original htaccess in root had this:
RewriteRule ^blog/(.*) https://blog.rootdomain.com/$1 [R=302,L]
Which did not work on this particular server, but worked fine on any other servers I tested on. Maybe because of a subdomain/directory mapping issue?
Regardless, I know it's not good practice to mix mod_rewrite and mod_alias, this final worked for me:
RedirectMatch 302 ^/blog/(.*)$ https://blog.skodaminotti.com/$1
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%1%{REQUEST_URI} [L,NE,R=302]
</IfModule>
Would still love to hear if anyone knows why the rewriterule wouldn't work.
I am looking for a way so that users can access their page by typing xxx.example.com and are then forwarded to their respective WordPress post.
Now I already have two rewrite functions on my site: (not written by me)
To use https everywhere:
#Rewrite everything to https
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=302]
And the WordPress:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Now, that WordPress function seems to translate example.com/post_title to the corresponding post.
But how do I rewrite it so it translates post_title.example.com to the corresponding post?
And if possible, still showing the xxx.example.com instead of example.com/xxx
The following should work, change your .htaccess to:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# Rewrite to https
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=302]
# This rewrite rule will only be used if
# we have an empty query string and the http host does not start with www
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.com
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)\.example\.com
RewriteRule ^$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/%1 [L]
# The default wordpress rewrite rule
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
For this to work I guess you need to setup a correct permalink structure in your wordpress installation:
For some reason my redirects are not working. I just want non-www to go to www and non-https to go to https. Here's what I've got. It's from this post.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !=https
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
EDIT: Here is my whole file.
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} Off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} blog.example.com
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.com/blog/$1 [R=permanent,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com/blog/$ [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.exmaple.com/blog/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.example.com/blog/$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !=https
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.example.com/blog/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
I just want non-www to go to www and non-https to go to https.
What you had initially was close, but it depends on how the SSL cert is managed. If the SSL is managed by a front-end proxy (eg. Cloudflare flexible-SSL/FREE option) then it maybe OK. However, if the SSL cert is installed directly on your server then probably not.
Try something like:
# Non-www to www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R,L]
# Non-SSL to SSL
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R,L]
This assumes you only have example.com and www.example.com, and no other subdomains. However, in your edited code you make reference to a blog subdomain - this will be OK, provided you include the blog redirect first.
This is currently a temporary (302) redirect. Change the R to R=301 (permanent) only when you are sure it's working OK.
Make sure you browser catch is clear before testing.
Summary
The complete code would look something like:
# Redirect blog subdomain to main domain (required?)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?blog\.example\.com
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.example.com/blog/$1 [R=301,L]
# Non-www to www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
# Non-SSL to SSL
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
It is best not to edit between the # BEGIN WordPress blocks to avoid your custom code being overwritten by WordPress.
Only include the RewriteBase directive once in your code (only the last instance will do anything). Currently, the RewriteBase directive is not actually doing anything anyway, since you have no relative path substitutions.
I am trying to redirect my web page using .htaccess. For all the requests, I want to redirect to http to https. But if the URL contains substring api, I don't want this redirection. I have tried following but it always redirecting to https.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} ^80$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} api
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R]
# Handle Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
Use this instead for substring 'api' anywhere in the URI:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !api
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
And change it like this if you only want to exclude calls like '.../api/...'
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\/api\/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
I am trying to ensure that urls always have www in front of them for canonicalization reasons.
Unfortunately when I put the following url in:
http://website.net/handbags/1/12/this-is-some-text
It redirects me here:
http://www.website.net/?controller=handbags&path=1/12/this-is-some-text
I would like to add it works fine when using:
http://www.website.net/handbags/1/12/this-is-some-text
I want it to redirect me here...
http://www.website.net/handbags/1/12/this-is-some-text
I'm not sure what could be causing this error. Here is my .htaccess file:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# CORE REDIRECT
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z]*)/?(.*)?$ index.php?controller=$1&path=$2 [NC,L]
# ENSURE WWW
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^.]+\.[a-z]{2,6})$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%1/$1 [R=301,L]
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
# ENSURE WWW
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^.]+\.[a-z]{7})$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%1/$1 [R=301,L]
# CORE REDIRECT
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z]*)/?(.*)?$ index.php?controller=$1&path=$2 [NC,L]
</IfModule>
You can do what I've done above; however, it's just going to redirect to http://www.website.net/handbags/1/12/this-is-some-text and then it's immediately going to hit the "CORE REDIRECT" rule and send you to http://www.website.net/?controller=handbags&path=1/12/this-is-some-text.
Is there a reason you don't want it to redirect to "?controller=handbags" when they go to www?
UPDATE
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
# ENSURE WWW
Rewritecond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.website\.net
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.website.net/$1 [R=301,L]
# CORE REDIRECT
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z]*)/?(.*)?$ index.php?controller=$1&path=$2 [NC,L]
</IfModule>
Whenever your # CORE REDIRECT matches, the other rules are not even checked, as the core redirect rule has the Lflag set. That ones tells Apache to stop trying other rules. Remove that flag or change the rule. ;)
