I have vBulletin installed at root with VBSEO installed also with this .htaccess at root:
ErrorDocument 404 /404..php
# Comment the following line (add '#' at the beginning)
# to disable mod_rewrite functions.
# Please note: you still need to disable the hack in

and wordpress installed in a subfolder /blog/
Wordpress works fine until I try to use permalink settings such as "Post name". Wordpress add a .htaccess file in /blog/ with the following:
# 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
Wordpress then no longer is accessible and Firefox detects that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.
Any advice on fixed this issue woulde be greatly appreciated.

The url gets redirected to https://2day.news/ instead of https://www.2day.news/.
This happens on every browser/mobile, cleared caches. I don't think this has anything to do with a server back-up as it goes blank when I change the redirect to a page that doesn't exist.
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^2day.news [NC]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.2day.news/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Add 301, www and https after RewriteBase
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.2day\.news$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.2day.news/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
On some servers, redirecting from non-www to www in the .htaccess will cause Too many redirections error. So I recommend changing the siteurl in the database.
You can change the URL of the site in the wp_options table, in the option_value column of the following options: siteurl, home.
Or alternatively in the WP admin, under Settings > General (Wordpress URL and Site URL).
You need to add the www. prefix for both options.
Please note:
Both records should be the same (or some functions may not work because of cross-domain issues)
You need to login again to WP admin after the changes
Pages on our WordPress site are not automatically redirecting to the HTTPS version even though we have set the site url and home url to use HTTPS.
This is the code we have at the top of our wp-config.php file:
define('WP_HOME','https://webwisemedia.co.uk');
define('WP_SITEURL','https://webwisemedia.co.uk');
define('FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', true);
Our .htaccess file looks like this:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
If you visit a page on our site, like http://webwisemedia.co.uk/web-wise-in-the-press/, it doesn't redirect to the HTTPS version.
Any ideas why?
You mixed up the Wordpress part of .htaccess and that is why it isn't working. That part is changed every time you update, for example, permalinks. Your .htaccess should look like this:
# Rewrite HTTP to HTTPS
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [R,L]
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
This leaves the Wordpress part intact and it forces to use https. From now on if you change anything in .htaccess do it below the Wordpress part.
I am wanting to use the following .htaccess however it works to a point but for me to access the sub pages I have to reset my permalinks and there for this section gets reset.
It seems in Wordpress currently there is only plugins to do one or another - not both of my goals.
Goals:
To force HTTP:// to HTTPS://
Include a trailing / at the end of the url
.htaccess:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !wp-content\/cache\/(all|wpfc-mobile-cache)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
RewriteBase /subFolder/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /subFolder/index.php [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} GET
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(.*)/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1/ [L,R=301]
</IfModule>
WordPress makes this block in your .htaccess file. Note the first and last line (I added "subfolder/" to fit your example):
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /subfolder/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /subfolder/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
WordPress in theory shouldn't be overridding anything outside of the # Begin / #End lines. So you can place your extra code above or below it.
That being said, WordPress adds a trailing slash by default when using PostName/pretty permalinks so I don't think you'd need anything extra. And generally if you set the Site URL to have https, all generated links will be over https as well, with the notable exception of existing media/links in the content editor. For those, add this below the #End WordPress above (switch example.com to your domain):
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.com/$1 [R,L]
I have a wildcard ssl installed on my account (My host is Bluehost) and I followed the directions here from Bluehost's site to install the wildcard SSL. However, when I try and access the site at all it comes up with a 500 internal server error. I am using laravel framework right now for the subdomain, I don't know if that changes anything, but here is the .htaccess file for the main site (Which is a wordpress site):
# Custom subdomain .htaccess SSL + WordPress
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^admin.mysite.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/admin/public/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /admin/public/$1
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^admin.mysite.com$
RewriteRule ^(/)?$ admin/public/index.php [L]
# End custom subdomain .htaccess
# BEGIN WordPress
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php70s .php
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
# Custom maindomain .htaccess WordPress
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?mysite.com$
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?mysite.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
# End custom maindomain .htaccess
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
And here is the .htaccess file for the subdomain (the one with laravel installed):
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]
# Handle Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
# Handle Authorization Header
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
</IfModule>
Keep in mind too, I know nothing about .htaccess or how it works, I just did what the webpage said to do.
I suggest you to try below code for simple redirection HTTP to HTTPS:
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
This should work for your main domain and its sub-domain both. Now if you want to redirect Non-WWW domain to WWW then try below code;
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.domainname.com%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
I have a wordpress website somewebsite.com
If I visit it naked like that, it works brilliantly, however if I visit it from www.somewebsite.com I get
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/somewebsite/public_html/index.php:2) in /home/somewebsite/public_html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 1121
In the wordpress website general settings it's set to somewebsite.com
and in CPANEL I have the following
an A record with somewebsite.com pointing to the ip address
a CNAME record with www.somewebsite.com pointing to somewebsite.com
Just for kicks I changed the setting in the wordpress general settings to www.somewebsite.com which fixed it for if I was to visit it with the www but broke it for the naked domain, so I switched it back.
my .htaccess looks like
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Simple is best :-) Redirect non-www to www or www to non-www using .htaccess, so user is going to be redirected before loading any script in php.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1/$1 [R=301,L]
In your example:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
Remember to change chmod for .htaccess - it can be overwritten by WordPress in some cases.
