How to redirect my wordpress blog from https:// to secure site ie. https://

  • Hi, i want to redirect my wordpress blog (friendship day quotes) from http to https site? There is not option in wordpress where we can redirect the blog. I don’t want to mess up with .htaccess as i don’t know programming. So is there any plug in or tweak in wordpress for redirecting blog?

  • Hello nihal026,

    I know you do not want to mess with your htaccess file but the best way to accomplish what you are asking is to mess with it. I would recommend just opening the file, scroll all the way to the bottom and then paste in the following code:

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
    RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

    Save and exit…then test it out.
    Hope that helps!

    There actually is a way to redirect inside of wordpress. Go to your wordpress dashboard, go to setting>general on the bottom left, and change the url to ‘https’.

    Here is also where you can make it so your website always redirects to the ‘www.’ version. (It is good to always use ‘www.’ or to never use it. SEO can treat them as different websites.
