HTTPS Force Redirect not working in Wordpress
Change the order of the rules. First redirect to https and then let WP take over all of your requests.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>RewriteEngine OnRewriteCond %{HTTPS} offRewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]RewriteBase /blog/RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-fRewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-dRewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L]</IfModule>
You can also add these two lines to the wp-config.php
define('WP_SITEURL', 'https://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']);define('WP_HOME', 'https://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']);So you could easily make conditions for http for dev environment and https for live like so:
if(strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'], 'livedomain.com') !== FALSE){ define('WP_SITEURL', 'https://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']); define('WP_HOME', 'https://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']);} else { define('WP_SITEURL', 'http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']); define('WP_HOME', 'http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']);}
