Converting Magento 1.9 Frontend to SSL https:
I'm converting a Magento 1.9 website from http: to fully secure https: frontend.
Ive used the following code at the top of the .htaccess file.
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301,NE]
I would just like to verify that to preserve link authority does this code create a permanent 301 redirect from http: to the new https: urls?
Can anyone confirm this is the case or is there something else that needs to be done to transfer url link authority?
Thanks
Nick

Re: Converting Magento 1.9 Frontend to SSL https:
You can include this line in your virtual host file located in etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf, sometimes it located in etc/httpd/conf.d/yourdomain.conf
RewriteEngine On Redirect permanent / https://yourwebsite.com/
So your conf file will look like this
<VirtualHost *:80> RewriteEngine On Redirect permanent / https://yourwebsite.com/ ServerName yourwebsite.com ServerAlias *.yourwebsite.com DocumentRoot /var/www/html/yourwebsite.com </VirtualHost>
Hope this helps
