Published
•1 min read
If you have a website running on apache2 and SSL certificate installed, but your visitors are landing on http connection sometimes, then you are in the right place.
Find your active htaccess file in the server. If there is not any, create one.
Use the below lines in the top of your htaccess file to force all users to visit your site with https
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
One important note: you need to enable ***RewriteEngine *** first.
sudo a2enmod rewrite
Thank you 👍😊
