How to redirect traffic from http to https?

Question

I bought domain with SSL certificate. However, users can access both http://xxxx.com and https://xxxx.com. How can I assure, that users are redirected from http to https?

In your .htaccess file look for how it's being attempted now and modify/add:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://xxxx.com/$1
