I'm not at all familiar working with htaccess. But I recently set my site to ssl and want to redirect. I have found the redirect code for http to https, but which htaccess file gets modified ( I assume the one in "upload" folder, or in my case "forum" directory. Then, does it matter where in the file the script is placed?

I would add it to the start of the file before any of the vBulletin redirects. -
Here's an example, my .htaccess in case you need to peek. You want to mod the .htaccess in your root directory. I'd recommend backing it up first. If you mess up your site will go down.
The first three lines after "rewrite on" are my http to https.
You may also want to check out Vbmods that rock too if you're using cloudflare. Can't remember if you mentioned that you were in the past. There's a tweak in there worth noting: https://vbmods.rocks/forum/vbulletin...cached-content

This is the order of rewrites in the 5.3.0 .htaccess file:
Code:[B] #To redirect users to the secure version of your site, uncomment the lines below #RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on #RewriteRule .* https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L][/B] # Send css calls directly to the correct file VBV-7807 RewriteRule ^css.php$ core/css.php [NC,L] # Redirect old install path to core. RewriteRule ^install/ core/install/ [NC,L] # Main Redirect RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(gif|jpg|jpeg|png|css)$ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?routestring=$1 [L,QSA] # Because admincp is an actual directory. RewriteRule ^(admincp/)$ index.php?routestring=$1 [L,QSA]Translations provided by Google.
