Force WordPress to "HTTPS://WWW." (SSL)

    I’m a control freak. 🙂

    I’ve looked everywhere and I find it truly astonishing that this seems to be this difficult a thing to do. I’ve seen about 3-4 version of this question on these boards that have gone unanswered – What The Deal Is!?!? 🙂

    How does someone, via their .htaccess file, force WordPress to the “https://www.” version of their website?

    I’m not talking about the Settings>General area – that does not FORCE a transfer. I know there is a plugin – the question is how to do it with .htaccess.

    Thanks!

    If you don’t know: “You betta ax somebody!” – and I don’t know….So I’m axin. 🙂

    BUMP!!!! I’m gonna keep bumping this until it is finally answered.

    Sorry for the persistence – but there is a lot of people looking for this answer and what better place to have the answer than the archives at WP.org?

    Thanks everyone!

    I asked this question elsewhere and got this response:

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On

    RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
    RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

    RewriteBase /blog/
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    Have a good day,
    -Chad
