Redirecting HTTPS to HTTP via .htaccess

Question

I\'m using a WordPress with its default .htaccess and I need to redirect all urls starting with https:// to http://. My server is using the same folder for http and https protoc

Answer 1

Change the order of the rules:

Options +FollowSymlinks

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On

    RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} ^443$
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]

    # BEGIN WordPress
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    # END WordPress
</IfModule>

Otherwise the WordPress rule will catch all request that’s URL path is not empty (i.e. not just /).
