Bad redirects – WP on a Windows server

    My WP site is installed on a Windows server. The redirects I wrote in htaccess are not working …
    Now I know that htaccess is ignored on a Windows server. The web.config file takes over.
    How does it work?
    Does the plugin work with a Windows server site?
    I want the http to point to the https, and the non-www to the www.
    Thank you for your answers.

    Hi,

    All features except those involving .htaccess rules should work ok in an IIS server.

    AIOWPS currently only supports Apache-type servers for the features which need to write .htaccess directives – eg, Firewall features, Blacklist feature etc

    You will need to find the alternative solution for directives entered in the .htaccess file.

    Kind regards

    Ok thanks for your quick response ??
    Is it possible for AIOWPS to write to the web.config file on the IIS server?
    Because this file was filled by WordPress (maybe a plugin), and I thought of AIOWPS…

    Unfortunately no. You will have to enter the corresponding directives yourself into the web.config file.

    Thank you

    Ok I understood.
    But if it’s not AIOWPS who wrote in web.config, which plugin or wordpress element went to write in this file ?
    Because it seems to prevent my redirect rules from working …
    Thank you ??

    Unfortunately I have no idea. You will have to investigate this yourself.

    Thank you
