Redirect http:// to https://and remove .html extensions [Branched]

[kashema16411545]

Hi,

When I edit .htaccess file and put these codes into .htaccess file(To remove .html) its worked but only for index page.

Question 1).

How can I remove .html for all pages?

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(.*/)index\.html$ [NC]
RewriteRule . %1 [R=301,NE,L]
# Begin Muse Generated redirects
# End Muse Generated redirects

When I added additional codes for Http to https got warning please see the attached

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off

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

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(.*/)index\.html$ [NC]
RewriteRule . %1 [R=301,NE,L]
# Begin Muse Generated redirects
# End Muse Generated redirects

Question 2).

How can I fix both problems?

Thanks.

I have branched this to a new topic because your question is more complicated than the original thread from 2 years ago. 

Obviously this question has noting to do with Muse.  .htaccess is a server file.  Does your hosting plan include C-Panel?  If so, that's the easiest way to edit your .htaccess file.    See links below.

NOTE: do NOT  duplicate RewriteEngine On.   When it's on, it's on.

hi,

can you please send me that how to use both in one htaccess file

like one is http to https redirect

and second is hide .html file extension

please reply

This is NOT a Muse question.  It's a server configuration question.  Each hosting plan is different.  Some hosts support .htaccess and others don't.  Please contact your hosting provider for assistance.

thanks for quick response, yes my hosting is supporting .htaccess file and its already working fine for http to https redirection, but i want to add in that file for .html extension hide code

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^growtele\.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.hostname.com/$1 [R,L]

Please contact your host.  It's possible your server is not configured to allow it.

Nancy Oshea,

Thanks for your quick response. Yes, I have access to cPanel and I replace those codes instead of my previous codes but not working. So I decided to keep my previous codes because something is better than nothing. My previous codes working for the index page.

Thanks, Kashem.
