Redirect to https:// from non-SSL

What should be the code in .htaccess for redirecting to https version of website from Non-SSL? The website is html based

 

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

Yes this is perfect ..... You can add some more like ensure that site is opening with www or without www ...... permanently redirect from http to https etc. Take a look at below code with some additional parameters.

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
# ensure www. (If prefer without www then remove this section)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
# ensure https
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

The greedy regex (.*) does that. It matches the URL with or without www. and/or http://

 

Thanks, this worked well. But for SEO purposes you want to setup a 301 redirect.

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

It would be more efficient to do the redirect in Cloudflare using their `Always Use HTTPS` and also mean less code for you to maintain. This is available on their free plan and you would also get ddos protection.
