.htaccess changes – auto WP Updates

  • With the last WP update, 4.4.1, my .htaccess file seems to have got modified.

    We have had problems with WP saying the “Cart is Empty” when one clicks “Checkout”. Seems there is a conflicting problem if someone goes into the cart using http instead of https.

    Our workaround was to add the following code to the .htaccess file:
    RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
    RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

    After the 4.4.1 update the .htaccess was the same minus the two lines of code above.

    Is there something in the most recent WP security update that would have modified this .htaccess file?

    …also, this could just be coincidence that I first noticed the problem was back after the 4.4.1 update, but thought I would ask.

    I’m trying to track down when, how & why the .htaccess file got modified.
