Force SSL/https redirect
Redirect the user to secure connection (https://) can be accomplished with a .htaccess file containing the following lines:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.com/$1 [R,L]
In case you wish to force HTTPS for a particular folder you can use:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} somefolder
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.com/somefolder/$1 [R,L]
The .htaccess file should be placed in the folder where you need to force HTTPS.
HTML Redirect
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://example.com/new.html">
