HTTP to HTTPS Upgrade .htaccess question

[Geographicus]

I am using Jenn Raldolph's guide to upgrade my site form HTTP to HTTPS. So far it is done. I created the Apache redirect in the .htaccess file as Raldolph wrote it

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [OR]

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

but I am noticing that if you navigate to my site using a link that is http it will still take you to the http site.

Is there some way to change this so all HTTP traffic is redirected as HTTPS? and MORE IMPORTANTLY, should I? I'm sure Jenn Raldolph wrote it that way for a reason.

It's a bug in the URI management screen. Miva generates the pages as non-secure. I just faced the same issue and was able to address it by writing the secure prefix directly to the database. See this thread for more info:

Here is what I was give for the all HTTPS

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
# Force HTTPS
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.domain.comt$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
