hi, I am using cPanel 84.08 VPS cloud - CentOS 7.7 MariaDB 10.3 I am having an issue with subdomain redirects so I have a domain called: example.com I have this set to https:// and to redirect to www.example.com working great... I then create a sub domain: work.example.com i then turn on https:// then go to redirects and try to redirect the subdomain without www. but it throws error, because it is the same path / Folder so then I go back to redirect and select : example.com then I add the folder /work then I add but it doesn't redirect so i select: redirect with or without www and that seems to work but, the only issue is that I can type http://www,work.example.com and it doesn't redirect to to redirect to or to redirect to

  Hello @Spirogg I'm not able to replicate this.

  • I have a subdomain called 123.mydomain.us
  • Its document root is in /home/myuser/public_html/123
  • the root domain mydomain.us is forced to redirect to https
  • When I add a redirect through cPanel the following is added to the .htaccess for the subdomain: RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^123\.mydomain\.us$ [OR]RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.123\.mydomain\.us$ RewriteRule ^/?$ "https\:\/\/mydomain\.us\/" [R=301,L]
    
  • I tested by entering in the following:
    • www.123.mydomain.us
    • 123.mydomain.us
  • All of them redirected successfully to mydomain.us -&nbspDomain Names Resources and Information.

  Are you sure you're not encountering caching?

  Hi @cPanelLauren I did clear cache. And still have this issue. So my setup is different. So maybe I can explain a little more. I have setup work.domain.us have enabled to force https:// But I want to make sure that whom ever goes to www.domain.us/work or domain.us/work will be redirected to

  Hello, In my instance I forced https on the destination domain only - since anything else is being redirected to it. I realize it didn't show very visibly on the link. What's the redirect look like in the .htaccess file?

  First I have forced https for both domain.com and work.domain.com Then I redirected domain.com to Here is the code below. RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.com$ RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/www\.domain\.com\/" [R=301,L] RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.com$ [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.domain\.com$ RewriteRule ^work\/?$ "http\:\/\/work\.domain\.com\/" [R=301,L]
  I think this is working now except if someone enters Which I don't think anyone will type www.work.domain.com from a css and login stand point. Has to be one or the other either

  Hi @Spirogg But the end goal is for them to end up at with or without https and with or without www RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^123\.mydomain\.us$ [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.123\.mydomain\.us$ RewriteRule ^/?$ "https\:\/\/mydomain\.us\/" [R=301,L]
