    I have the situation that I the webhost support team change my .htaccess to the
    following:

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} (?!^www.)^(.+)$ [OR]
    RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
    RewriteRule ^ https://www.%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

    Redirect works fine, but your plugin is being stubborn and doesn’t want to aknoweldge the fact that I’m right…or am I? ??

    Can you shed some light on the issue if I can safely ignore the option in your plugin?

    Otherwise LOVE your plugin! Makes it sooo simple for noobs like myself!

    Hi David,

    if the redirect by your hoster works fine you can safely disable the .htaccess redirect option in the Really Simple SSL settings. The plugin uses a slightly different redirect so therefore it fails to detect yours. There are a lot of variations of the .htaccess redirect, as long as the site redirects to https:// there’s nothing to worry about.
