Redirect all sites to version with HTTPS

[Émerson Felinto]

I need to configure Litespeed to redirect all sites automatically to their respective version with HTTPS. How can I do this ?

 

[NiteWave]

using rewrite rule in virtual host or .htaccess

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}/%{REQUEST_URI [R,L]

 

[Émerson Felinto]

Which file do I need to edit so that this setting becomes global for all users?

 

[NiteWave]

if you use WHM and easy apache 4, can create a file(e.g., https.conf) under /etc/apache2/conf.d/userdata/
best added one line at the beginning:
RewriteEngine On
in addition to above 2 lines.

Unfortunately it did not work !!

It's worth mentioning that I'm not using Apache as a proxy. I am using only the Litespeed WEB Server.

For LSWS native, You can add the above rewrite to new virtual host template in rewrite section, everytime when you create new virtual host, it will set.

For the existing virtual hosts, you can write a script to add the rewrite to .htaccess for all virtual hosts.

but good to know it works now

best regards

By following this same reasoning, how can I redirect ALL sites from one specific URL to another? I'm trying to follow the following syntax but it just does not work.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^oi$ /oiiiiiii/ [R=301,L]

 

[Pong]

I can see the following rule works fine:

RewriteRule ^oi/(.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}/oiiiiiii/$1 [R=301,L]

example.com/oi/info.php will rewrite to example.com/oiiiiiii/info.php without a problem.

 

[Émerson Felinto]

Not works for me!

This is my file /etc/apache2/conf.d/userdata/cache.conf

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^wp-admin/admin.php?page=wpfastestcacheoptions/(.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}/oiiiiiii/$1 [R=301,L]

I need redirect https://example.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=wpfastestcacheoptions to https//mycompany.website/my-custom-page

1. I don't believe you can do query string like that. You may have to place query string in the rewrite condition
2. if your rules are in apache configuration, you will need to use an absolute path. not the same rules as in .htacesss.
You could use something similar to the following(not test yet, but you can run your test.

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^page=wpfastestcacheoptions/(.*)
RewriteRule /wp-admin/admin.php https://%{HTTP_HOST}/oiiiiiii/%1

3. This is not something specific to LiteSpeed, all about writing rewrite rules. make sure your test your rewrite rules with Apache. LiteSpeed should just work if they work with apache.

Why I need redirect pages of caching plugins redirect to something like this: https://en.support.wordpress.com/incompatible-plugins/

I'll try this and get you back!

Great explanation, thanks!

 

[Émerson Felinto]

I did test now. Don't work!

 

[Pong]

Did you test with apache? If not working with apache, then need to tweek the rule until it is working with Apache. Since you are using cpanel/whm, switching between apache and LSWS is very easy

 

[Émerson Felinto]

I changed to Apache and unfortunately it did not work!

 

[Pong]

I need redirect https://example.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=wpfastestcacheoptions to https://mycompany.website/my-custom-page

assuming you mean example.com = mycompany.website, the same thing.

If the above is what you need, you can try the following in /etc/apache2/conf.d/userdata/redirect.conf

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^page=wpfastestcacheoptions
RewriteRule /wp-admin/admin.php https://%{HTTP_HOST}/custom.php? [R=301,L]

The above rule should remove your trailing query string and direct /wp-admin/admin.php to custom.php page as far as query string starting with page=wpfastestcacheoptions

https://mycompany.website/wp-admin/admin.php?page=wpfastestcacheoptions should redirect to https://mycompany.website/custom.php

If this is not your case, please provide an example in details.

Ok I'll explain a little better ...

I want to prevent my clients from using other cache plugins other than Litespeed Cache. So if you try to access this WP Fastest Cache page they will be redirected to that URL: https://centraldocliente.felintonetwork.com/knowledgebase/3/How-to-improve-the-cache-of-site-site. html

Here I explain what Litespeed Cache is and how to use it.

I could use the cpanel feature that installs on all websites the litespeed cache, however if it has an active cache plugin it simply ignores it. Which is terrible! =(

 

[Pong]

Thank you for the clarification. Look like a Must-Use plugin which forbidden other cache plugins being installed by pulling the forbidden list dynamically could be an idea/solution for your need, but I am not sure when such MU plugin can be available.

Anyway, in term of rewrite, can try the following:

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^page=wpfastestcacheoptions
RewriteRule /wp-admin/admin.php https://centraldocliente.felintonetwork.com/knowledgebase/3/How-to-improve-the-cache-of-site-site.html [R=301,L]
