Forcing www and https with CloudFlare and NearlyFreeSpeech in one 301 redirect (rather than two)

1. Put this in .htaccess on NearlyFreeSpeech

   RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} =http [OR]
   RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
   RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.ericflin.com/$1 [R=301,L]

2. On NearlyFreeSpeech, turn off canonical URLs and turn off force HTTPS. If either is forced on, requests to http://example.com get redirected to https://example.com and then to https://www.example.com, regardless of settings in .htaccess.

3. On CloudFlare, add the following page rule:

   💡

   URL: http://*example.com/* Rule: Forwarding URL (Status Code: 301 - Permanent Redirect, Url: https://www.example.com/$2)

4. Make sure enforce HTTPS is turned on in CloudFlare.

5. You don't need any other rules because the .htaccess takes care of redirects from https://example.com to https://www.example.com
