HTTPS:// Error on Tapatalk

[I.G.O.T.A.]

So we're starting to move over our forums to https://. When we add the code below with a .htaccess file everything works on the desktop version, but Tapatalk then stops. Anyone see that before or have any idea how to fix it?

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

I assume you also changed your forum to use https at the URL options? Not just .htaccess?
It probably happens because Tapatalk doesn't handle a 301 redirect properly.

Yep did that also. Any other ideas? We can't seem to figure this one out.

Does it work without those .htaccess rules in place?

Yes, Tapatalk does, but then the forum has some links that need to be forced and changed to https:// and that would take us a long time to find each one.

What if you add the following above the "RewriteRule" line:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/mobiquo/

I believe TapaTalk makes use of PHP files in the mobiquo folder so this should ignore redirects of requests to files in that folder.
