 Posted: Fri 25 Dec '15 23:30 Post subject: Forcing http to https and none www to www |
 |
|
Hi All
I have managed to ensure everything is good to go on https for my website
what I am looking to do with my htacess file is now force it to https and also ensure that if anyone type in our domain without the www that it also put www on
I have one question which is would the below work. if so would I need to flag to on or off
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} =on [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !=www.example.com.au
RewriteRule ^ https://www.example.com.au%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R] |

The flags are
L for last rule. That is important for a redirect.
R is the redirect.
I suggest to use
[L,R=301]
To have a 301 redirect instead of a 302. |

So would I use the on or off flag
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} =on [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !=www.example.com.au
RewriteRule ^ https://www.example.com.au%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
or
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} =off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !=www.example.com.au
RewriteRule ^ https://www.example.com.au%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301] |

It would be much easier if you do the SSL forcing in the port 80 vhost with off and put the force WWW rule into the port 443 vhost.
If you can't edit the apache config use the rule with the off. |

We cannot seem to get this working as some how when we put in URL/page-url it just defaults to the home page or even our search engine results in google just redirect back to out https home page when we really want it to go to URL/page-url on https
Here is our full htaccess file to see if anyone can spot where the problem is. I have been working solid on this for 2 days and cannot figure it out, its either a wordpress setting or something in the htaccess file that maybe wordpress has set, what I have notices is two if mod_rewrite.c statements but I am none the wiser
Admin moved full htaccess to: http://apaste.info/D8O |

Wow that is a very long list of rewrite rules and some rules override other rules. I'm not sure which rules wins...
Also the deflate rule a double.
To force SSL for any of your vhosts.
| Code: |
RewriteEngine On
# force SSL
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
#force www
#RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.com$ [NC]
#RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
|
Make sure that in your config is only one RewriteEngine On and only one RewriteBase |
