How to Add SSL and HTTPS in WordPress

You can do this by adding the following code in your .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.yoursite.com/$1 [R,L]

</IfModule>

Don’t forget to replace yoursite.com with your site URL.

If you are on nginx servers (most users are not), you would add the following to redirect from HTTP to HTTPS:

server {

listen 80;

server_name yoursite.com www.yoursite.com;

return 301 https://yoursite.com$request_uri;

}
