Force HTTPS using .htaccess

All the basics of forcing HTTPS with .htaccess

---

Often the question is posed how to use .htaccess HTTPS that forces you to use HTTPS encryption as an end-user.
This is possible with a simple script, which you can insert arbitrarily.
You simply create a new file in the htdocs or httpdocs directory and name it .htaccess after that you use a rewrite rule.

The file should contain the following content:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{ENV:HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule .* %{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

Of course, the rule can be changed however you want depending on your own wishes.
