Answer 1

easyest way to redirect http to https in wordpress it to modify site_url and home from http://example.com to https://example.com. Wordpress will do the redirection. ( that is why you get "too many redirects" error, wordpress is redirecting to http while .htaccess will redirect to https )

Answer 2

Redirect from http to https://www

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]

This will work for sure!

Problem solved!

Final .htaccess:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{ENV:HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^.*$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]

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

Just add or replace this code in your .htaccess file in wordpress

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

The above final .htaccess and Test A,B,C,D,E did not work for me. I just used below 2 lines code and it works in my WordPress website:

RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.thehotskills.com/$1 [R=301,L]

I'm not sure where I was making the mistake but this page helped me out.
