Part of any website are the domains and URLs that users type in their browsers in order to reach a web page. However, it can be challenging to manage should it need to be changed. Thankfully, there are URL redirects for that.
URL redirect (forwarding) allows you to forward your domain visitors to any URL of your choice, either to a new domain or a different website altogether.
In an Apache web server, use the following rewrite rules in your .htaccess file.
Rewrite the entire domain and pass the paths
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301]Redirecting to www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]Redirecting from www (removing www)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
