Force HTTPS

[zalmoxis]

Hello,

Forcing HTTPS via Chevereto's dashboard didn't seem to work (i.e no https happened). Forcing it via cPanel (Domains area, there's a toggle to Force HTTPS) didn't work either.

So I ended up modifying the .htaccess by adding this to the already existing file:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mger\.co$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.mger\.co$
RewriteRule .* https://mger.co%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} =on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.mger\.co$
RewriteRule .* https://mger.co%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

</IfModule>


It works perfectly now, but I wonder if this is going to break anything (i.e updates, as I've just had an issue previously or perhaps the integration with External Storage)?

Seems like an odd way of doing it to me, but there are many different ways, this is all I use,

RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

and no, doing this will not break anything.
