quick ssl issue

[hussew]

hey, the only time my SSL is proving to be an issue is when someone goes to a page that doesnt have "www." in the url. Is tehre anyway to force the www. at the beginning of every page's url

There's a few ways to do it. If you only have one domain (aren't parking other domains or transferring credit from previous domains to this one), then you can use the following (at the top) of your .htaccess file in the root of the domain:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT}s ^(443(s)|[0-9]+s)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http%2://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Obvously replace example.com with your own domain, and note that the \. is to escape any "dots" so .co.uk would be \.co\.uk but only need (and sometimes not) in the RewriteCond(ition) statement.

This should likely work woth Prestashop friendly urls but I'm not in a position to test it right now!

EDIT: the above also assumes that ssl is running on port 443
