Making https the default in WHM?

[dtctio]

Hello everyone...

I intend to make https://www.mydomain.org.uk the default. But, I don't intend to setup any sub domains.

Very much learning WHM from a web designer / front-end perspective.

I've seen the above achieved from examples based on .htaccess, and I understand how Canonical relates to SEO, including consistence href formatting.

Would I use WHM to set the desired domain name, or perhaps in cPanel?

Hello

This post should help:

Force use of SSL

Thank you.

Thanks for your reply.

OK, so this can and should only be achieved using .htaccess, and not in WHM or cPanel. Just out of interest, can this be achieved in the WHM...?

No, you would need to setup the .htaccess rule or use the "Redirects" option in cPanel.

Thank you.
