[BlueOnyx:23266] Re: redirect to https

[Brent Epp]

There's no option in the GUI, unfortunately.

I'm not sure if it's a default from Apache or BX, but you need to add 
this to the site's .include file (/etc/httpd/conf/vhosts/siteX.include)

<Directory "/home/.sites/XXX/siteY/web">
AllowOverride All
Options All
</Directory>

Do `ls -l /home/sites | grep www.yourdomain.com` to get the 
corresponding numbers for XXX and Y.

You could further limit the AllowOverride and Options directives you 
need, but this is what works for me since I'm the only siteadmin on my 
vhosts.

After this, you'll need to restart apache to put it into effect: 
`systemctl restart httpd`

Then you should be able to add rewrites (and more) in .htaccess
