Simplify redirect domain to non-www SSL

Question

I am using the follow .htaccess code to do the following:

• redirect example.com to https://example.com
• redirect wwww.example.com to https://example.com
• rewrite anything that comes after /$1 to index.php?get=$1

.htaccess

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www.)?(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%1/$1 [R=301,L]

RewriteRule ^([^.]+)/?$ index.php?get=$1 [L]

This works fine but can this code still be simplified?

Answer 1

You can combine http->https rule and www removal rule into a single rule and have your .htaccess as this:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\. [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=302,L,NE]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule .+ index.php?get=$0 [L,QSA]
