Redirect to HTTP non-www to HTTPS www htaccess

I want to redirect from any direction to our site with HTTPS protocol, but some redirects it's not working. I want this:

  • http://www.site.co TO https://www.site.co
  • http://site.co TO https://www.site.co

This is my htaccess:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.com/$1 [L,R=301] 

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.com/$1 [L,R=301]

The second rule it's not working. It going to another direction inside our site, and it isn't redirect to HTTPS site.


Solution 1:

Try it like this:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301]

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301] 

The only real difference here is that first we redirect from non-WWW to WWW then we check for HTTPS and redirect it.

If it does not work, try this one:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301]

RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301] 

Solution 2:

The answer by Prix works. To make it more dynamic lets use SERVER_NAME and REQUEST_URI instead of a static domain name.

RewriteEngine On
#we replace domain.com/$1 with %{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI}.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) https://www.%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

#here we dont use www as non www was already redirected to www.
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

Solution 3:

Sorry I don't have enough point to comment, but the rule of @prix will bring unneeded redirect.

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [L,R=301]

RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.com/$1 [L,R=301] 

You can try http://domain.com/ on GTMETRIX and you will get this message

 "Avoid landing page redirects for the following chain of redirected URLs."

http://domain.com/
http://www.domain.com/
https://www.domain.com/

To prevent that, go to the first RewriteRule and add a "s" at the end of http. The new set of rule will look like this :

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.com/$1 [L,R=301]

RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.com/$1 [L,R=301] 

Solution 4:

This is http to https and non www to www redirection using .htaccess

If you want to redirect to https and www you can use this code

http to https redirection:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
</IfModule>

Non www to www redirection:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
</IfModule>

If you want to use booth functionality place the above all code respectively
