SSL / HTTPs transfer question

Hi BHW,

I just installed a SSL certificate on my site and changed my site to https , however, now all my links in Google search listings are redirecting to my home page. How do I fix this or what is the proper way to transfer my site to https?

I also noticed that my google analytics/webmaster tools still show my site as http and I'm not sure how to get Google to pick up that I now have SSL.

Any help is appreciated, thank you all in advance.

The best way is 301 redirection and do it quickly. Otherwise your site can hurt.

I reverted the site back to non-https for now so that it doesn't hurt. Can you clarify on the 301?

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

Jam it in your .htaccess

Thanks a lot for the help. Will give it a try a little later today!
