====== Force SSL On Domain ======
===== Force all web traffic to use HTTPS =====
Insert the following lines of code in the .htaccess file in your website’s root folder.

**Important:If you have existing code in your .htaccess, add this above where there are already rules with a similar starting prefix.**

<code apache>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.yourdomain.com/$1 [R,L]
</code>

Be sure to replace **%%www.yourdomain.com%%** with your actual domain name.

===== Force a specific domain to use HTTPS (v1) =====
Use the following lines of code in the .htaccess file in your website's root folder:

<code apache>
RewriteEngine On 
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.yourdomain.com/$1 [R,L]
</code>

Make sure to replace **example\.com** with the domain name you're trying force to https. Additionally, you need to replace **%%www.yourdomain.com%%** with your actual domain name.

===== Force a specific domain to use HTTPS (v2) =====
This version works on subdomains too.  Just put the code in the root folder of the subdomain.

<code apache>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
</code>

:-) This is the one I'm currently using.
===== Force SSL on a specific folder =====
Insert the code below into a .htaccess file placed in that specific folder:

<code apache>
RewriteEngine On 
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} folder 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.yourdomain.com/folder/$1 [R,L]
</code>

Make sure you change the //folder// reference to the actual folder name. Then be sure to replace //%%www.yourdomain.com/folder%%// with your actual domain name and folder you want to force the SSL on.
