Re-redirect
Note: First you need the server to install and enable the Mod_rewrite module.
Mandatory www
Rewriteengine on
Rewritecond%{http_host} ^example\.com [NC]
Rewriterule ^ (. *) $ http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301,NC]

Rewritecond%{http_host}!^www\. [NC]
Rewritecond%{https}s ^on (s) |
rewriterule ^ Http%1://www.%{http_host}%{request_uri} [R=301,l]
This method can be used in any Web site.
forced Non-www
is the www good, or non-www good, there is no conclusion, if you like without the WWW, you can use the following script:
Rewriteengine on
Rewritecond%{http_host} ^www\.example\.com [NC]
Rewriterule ^ (. *) $ http://example.com/$1 [l,r=301]
Mandatory Non-www General method
Rewriteengine on
Rewritecond%{http_host} ^www\.
Rewritecond%{https}s ^on (s) |off
Rewritecond Http%1://%{http_host} ^ (https?:/ /) (www\.)? (.+)$
rewriterule ^%1%3%{request_uri} [R=301,l]
Force HTTPS
Rewriteengine on
Rewritecond%{https}!on
Rewriterule (. *) Https://%{http_host}%{request_uri}
# note:it ' s also recommended to enable HTTP Strict transport Security (HSTs)
# on your HTTPS website to help prevent man-in-the-middle attacks.
# https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/HTTP_strict_transport_security
<ifmodule mod_headers.c>
Header always set strict-transport-security "max-age=31536000; Includesubdomains "
</IfModule>
force HTTPS through proxy
If you use a proxy, this method is useful to you.
Rewritecond%{http:x-forwarded-proto}!https
Rewriterule (. *) Https://%{http_host}%{request_uri}
force add trailing slash
Rewritecond%{request_uri}/+[^\.] +$
Rewriterule ^ (. +[^/]) $%{request_uri}/[r=301,l]
take off the trailing slash
Rewritecond%{request_filename}!-d
Rewriterule ^ (. *)/$/$1 [r=301,l]
redirect to a page
Redirect 301/oldpage.html http://www.example.com/newpage.html
Redirect 301/oldpage2.html http://www.example.com/folder/
Directory alias
Rewriteengine on
Rewriterule ^source-directory/(. *) target-directory/$1
Script alias
fallbackresource/index.fcgi
This is example has a index.fcgi file in some directory, and any requests within ' directory that fail to resolve a filen Ame/directory would be sent to the index.fcgi script. It ' s Good if you are want Baz.foo/some/cool/path to is handled by BAZ.FOO/INDEX.FCGI (which also supports requests to Baz.foo) While maintaining baz.foo/css/style.css and the. Get access to the original path from the PATH_INFO environment variable, as exposed to your scripting.
Rewriteengine on
Rewriterule ^$ index.fcgi/[qsa,l]
Rewritecond%{request_filename}!-f
Rewritecond%{request_filename}!-d
Rewriterule ^ (. *) $ index.fcgi/$1 [qsa,l]
This is a less efficient version of the Fallbackresource directive (because using mod_rewrite are more complex than ha Ndling the fallbackresource directive), but it ' s also more flexible.
REDIRECT Entire Web site
Redirect 301/http://newsite.com/
This is way does it with links intact. This is www.oldsite.com/some/crazy/link.html'll become www.newsite.com/some/crazy/link.html. This is extremely helpful the are just "moving" a site to a new domain. Source
Clean URLs
This snippet lets your use "cleaning" urls-those without a PHP extension, e.g. Exa Mple.com/users instead of example.com/users.php.
Rewriteengine on
Rewritecond%{script_filename}!-d
Rewriterule ^ ([^.] +) $ $1.php [nc,l]
security
deny all Access
# # Apache 2.2
Deny from all
# # Apache 2.4
# Require all denied
But wait, this'll lock your out from your content as well! Thus Introducing ...
Deny all access (exclude part)
# # Apache 2.2
Order Deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
# # Apache 2.4
# Require all denied
# Require IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is your IP. If you replace the last three digits with 0/12 For example, this'll specify a range of IPs within the same network, thus Saving you are the trouble to list all allowed IPs separately. Source
Now of course there ' a reversed version:
Shielding Crawler/malicious access
# # Apache 2.2
Order Deny,allow
Allow from all
Deny from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Deny from Xxx.xxx.xxx.xxy
# # Apache 2.4
# Require All granted
# Require not IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
# Require not IP Xxx.xxx.xxx.xxy
protect hidden files and directories
Hidden files and directories (those whose names start with a dot.) should most, if not all, of the time is secured. For example:. htaccess,. htpasswd,. Git, ... hg ...
Rewritecond%{script_filename}-d [OR]
Rewritecond%{script_filename}-F
Rewriterule "(^|/) \."-[F]
Alternatively, you can just raise a is not Found error giving the attacker dude no clue:
Redirectmatch 404/\. *$
Securing backup files and source code files
These files are left by some text/html editors (like Vi/vim) and pose a great the security danger if exposed to public.
<filesmatch "( BAK|CONFIG|DIST|FLA|INC|INI|LOG|PSD|SH|SQL|SWP) |~) $ >

Sometimes you want to prohibit pictures hotlinking from some bad guys only.

Password protected directory
The need to create a. htpasswd file somewhere in the system:
Htpasswd-c/home/fellowship/.htpasswd Boromir
Then can use it for authentication:
AuthType Basic
AuthName "One does not simply"
authuserfile/home/fellowship/.htpasswd
Require Valid-user
password-protected files
AuthName "One still does not simply"
AuthType Basic
authuserfile/home/fellowship/.htpasswd
<files "ONE-RING.O" >
Require Valid-user
</Files>
<filesmatch ^ ((one|two|three)-rings?\.o) $>

This denies access to all users who are coming from (referred by) a specific domain.

Set Expiration header information
Expires headers tell the browser whether they should request a specific file to the server or just grab it from the Cach E. It is advisable to set static content ' s expires headers to something far in the future.

If you are in a shared host, chances are there are more than one version of PHP installed, and sometimes you want a specifi C version for your website. For example, Laravel requires PHP >= 5.4. The following snippet should switch the PHP version for you.

# Alternatively, can use AddType
AddType application/x-httpd-php55. php
