How to redirect url requests to https?

3 Views

I’ve searched far and wide for a solution to this and I am sure it’s simple but I simply couldn’t find a solution.

This is the regular wordpress redirect code:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

How do I make it so that this will always route the url request to https://?

Note: The reason this is posted here and not on any other SO site is that I thought there might be a catch when it comes to WP.

BTW, I put the same question on ServerFault and got a big On Hold because “I did not try to solve this myself”.

  1. This really belongs on ServerFault, StackOverflow or Webmasters…

    But basically, you need to add something along these lines before the WP rules begin:

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