here is Wordpress default code in .htaccess file:
# 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>
What is correct way to provide only secure https connections? The code is:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !^on$
RewriteRule .* https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R]
Is it ok the 2nd and 3rd line to put after Wordpress code to avoid duplication?
You should add that code before Wordpress, not after
# forcing SSL
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

I've recently activated SSL on a website (https://ledertid.com)
I use this in my .htaccess to redirect everything from http:// to https://.
This is my original .htaccess
# 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
Then I tried this (Option A)
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{ENV:HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^.*$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
The above option A returned the following error in the browser:
"ledertid.com redirected you too many times."
Then I tried this (Option B)
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^.*$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Option C
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
It works like a charm on all url's except for the homepage. So if you visit http:// ledertid.com it doesn't redirect you to the https:// version.
Is something wrong with my Rewrite rules in .htaccess or am I missing something else causing this problem?
Thanks a bunch in advance.
You can use this in your .htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^.*$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]
This will force HTTPs on every page including your homepage.
Please give this a try
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]
Also try putting the entire block before the wordpress stuff. Not inside it.
My website at www.tripfelt.com uses the .htaccess below to handle pretty URLs:
Options +FollowSymLinks
# enable rewrite engine
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^blog - [L,NC]
RewriteRule ^robots.txt - [L]
RewriteRule ^$ index.php?/ [QSA,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/blog
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule (.*) index.php?/$1 [QSA,L]
www.tripfelt.com/blog uses the following .htaccess:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
However, clicking on any blog item, instead of opening the blog story, is redirecting to the main site. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
Try changing the base in your blog folder to /blog/ and remove the leading slash in the routing rule:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /blog/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Solved
Blog folder
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /blog/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
How do you redirect a directory (in this case /resume/) to a file (/Resume.pdf) using an .htaccess file? I have tried different rewrite methods but keep getting a redirect loop. Is this because of a conflict with WordPress?
This doesn't seem to work:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^resume/ http://domain.com/Resume.pdf [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Ok, I figured it out and here's what I got to work:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/resume$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://domain.com/Resume.pdf [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
I've correctly enabled HTTPS redirect with the code below.
After visiting one of the HTTPS pages, all other urls are inheriting the previous HTTPS. How can I force all other pages to HTTP?
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(/checkout|/downloads|/all-products)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://websitename.com/$1 [R,L]
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
You can use:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(checkout|downloads|all-products)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://websitename.com/$1 [R=301,L,NE]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(checkout|downloads|all-products)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://websitename.com/$1 [R=301,L,NE]
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
I've got below 301 redirect the bottom one I would like to get it working but it's not working at the moment.
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymLinks
Options +Indexes
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.com.au$
RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/www\.domain\.com\.au\/" [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^author/privacy?$ privacy [R=301,L]
Is there a reason why?
I would like to redirect author/privacy to privacy...
Order of the rules is of problem here. Here is the fixed version:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymLinks +Indexes
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.com\.au$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^$ http://www.domain.com.au/ [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^author/(privacy)/?$ /$1 [R=301,L,NC]
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Just had the same problem, but this is the answer.....
Use relative URL's not full http:// etc.
Cut the below code and add to your .htaccess file and add to your root directory
Redirect 301 /page1.php /page2.html
Redirect 301 /page3.php /page4.html
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
