I am not very clear what the issue is.
What do you try to do with server pot redirect? Why did you put pot 80 for redirect?
Do you need to have https all the time?
You can have store URL to be https as well:
Store URL = HTTP https://www.mysite.com/
Secure Store URL = HTTPS https://www.mysite.com/
Ok so the best way to setup a store is
Store URL = HTTP
https://www.mysite.com/Secure Store URL = HTTPS
https://www.mysite.com/my .htaccess should be like this for https
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.*)$
https://www.mysite.com/$1 [R,L]
/* no port 80*/
This htaccess change says too many redirect so I have commented it though. How can I check redirects? my .htaccess only has one redirect which is
RewriteRule ^(.*)$
https://www.mysite.com/$1 [R,L]
my DNS should be
name = mysite.com , value = 1.1.1.1
name = www , value = 1.1.1.1
/*where value = 1.1.1.1 is IP of my domain */
Is this correct? because without https redirect if I hit mysite.com without www icons such as cart, add button are not loaded
