You can do a classical redirect in apache conf.

Redirect / https://mypage.com/

I have another question.

How do exclude certain pages from being redirected to https?

Thanks

I like the May 23rd updated solution best.
The problem with hard coding a redirect to something like http://site/something, at least for what I want, I just want to add https to whatever they typed. I don’t want to send them to a set home page but rather what they typed, just secure.
That’s why I like the first solution best.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

Yay!
I don’t have to worry about where I put this or what site, as long as it has ssl enabled.

I am sorry to tell you, that those examples won’t work if you are on a non standard http port, e.g. http://www.example.com:8888/ will redirect to https://www.example.com:8888/

use this instead:

[code]
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI}
[/code]

I had to add [R=301,L] to my RewriteRule to get this working with wildcard subdomains.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

Simple, elegant, works brilliantly.
THANKS!

To redirect a specific url to https use RewriteCond
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} =/secure #You can have multiple rewrite cond
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

To redirect the rest of the site from https to http:

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/secure
RewriteRule (.*) http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

Boy am I late to the party on this, but thanks! I spent hours looking for code that would work and this did the trick.

I currently have my .htaccess file that sends all of the requests for my website to https: however I am trying to host two different sites under the same hosting. Well when I put in the URL then it redirects me back to the other site. Does anyone know the code to only redirect within the root directory and leave the subdirectories alone?

This is my current code:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
SSLOptions +StrictRequire
SSLRequireSSL
SSLRequire %{HTTP_HOST} eq “example.com”
ErrorDocument 403 https://example.com

Thanks
