I'm currently using this to force https and www via htaccess:
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=302]
Now I want to change the R=302 in R=301, and ditch the domain name itself. The reason why I don't want example.com to be in there is because it might be that for some countries the domain name will be different in the future.
So I was thinking
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
... but that would redirect www.example.com to www.www.example.com right?
How to do this properly in this specific case? I still want to force www and https in one single redirect.

You need to use this redirect rule like this to avoid hardcoding:
# add www and turn on https in same rule
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]

I am deploying a Craft CMS site to a shared hosting account using Deployer.
The latest deployment is accessible from domain.com/current/public
My .htaccess file looks like the following, which strips current/public from the url and forces https:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ current/public/$1
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !=https
RewriteRule .* https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=302,L]
I now need to also redirect all urls to use www
How can I adjust my .htaccess to force www on all urls?
*** UPDATE ***
I have managed to solve the above with the following:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ current/public/$1
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !=https [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?(.+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
When I go to example.com/admin it redirects to example.com/current/public/admin. How can I adjust my htaccess file to remove 'current/public' from admin urls?
Your http->https and www adding rule should be top most rule so that it works on original URI instead of a rewritten URI due to other rule.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !=https [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?(.+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ current/public/$1 [L]
Make sure to clear browser cache before testing this rule.
Also add this redirect rule in /current/public/.htaccess:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /current/public/(\S+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [R=301,L,NE]
I have been using this code in .htaccess to force www. for my website:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS}s ^on(s)|
RewriteRule ^ http%1://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
The problem is when I want to edit the website using xampp. When I type localhost it will redirect me to www.localhost which doesn't work. How I can remove the www. when using xampp?
Edit: I deleted these rules putting # before them and it seems to work in other browsers but in google chrome it doesn't.
You can make an exception for localhost like this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^localhost$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS}s ^on(s)|
RewriteRule ^ http%1://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
Also make sure to clear your browser cache to make it work since browsers do cache 301 URLs.
I am new to the htaccess redirect stuff but want to do smth special - and I dont know whats the recommend way and dont know if this is still possible or not.
I have this in my .htaccess file:
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
Now every URL is redirected to the HTTPS version - this is fine and necessery. But now there are a few exceptions.
For example these urls HAS to be HTTP instead of HTTPS:
http://www.mywebsite.com/another/url/which/has/to/be/http
http://www.mywebsite.com/and_again?var=a
Is it possible to solve this with the htaccess and when its possible maybe you can send me a reference link or describe how to do this.
Edit
I now have this code:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !\s/+(/commerce_paypal/*)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
The goal is that every (!) url gets redirected to HTTPS except ANY url which has commerce_paypal at the beginning.
For example:
mydomain.com/commerce_paypal <- http
mydomain.com/commerce_paypal/smth/else <- http
mydomain.com/what/ever <- https
You can have a RewriteCond to add exceptions in the http->http rule:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
# force https:// for all except some selected URLs
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !/commerce_paypal/ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
# force http:// for selected URLs
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /commerce_paypal/ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !/commerce_paypal/ [NC]
worked for me. I tried many similar condition rewrites without luck.
I have an .htaccess file for some domains sitting on same folder but leads to different content that is determined by php according to the domain name.
I want only one of them to redirect all requests to ssl domain.
How that's can be done?
When I use redirect rules it transfer all domains:
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%mydomain.com%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.%mydomain.com%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
If you want to skip mydomain.com from this http->https redirection:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(www\.)?mydomain\.com$
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^ https://%mydomain.com%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteCond %{HTTPS}s on(s)|
RewriteRule ^ http%1://www.%mydomain.com%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
I have two domains, example.com and example.co.uk, that use the same application on my server.
I would like to rewrite the address of the URL depending on what the user types in. The only URLs I want are https://www.example.com and https://www.example.co.uk
In my .htaccess file I have the following:
# Turn on URL rewriting
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.co.uk$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.co.uk/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
If I goto http://www.example.com it doesn't add the https, if I goto http://example.com it does. What is the best way of making the ReWriteCond match the www url?
Have your 2 rules like this:
RewriteEngine On
# add www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,NE,R=301]
# turn on HTTPS
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,NE,R=301]
These 2 rules will take care of both of your domains.
