      Hey all,

      In the latest Moz crawl, certain pages on our website have shown as having 302 redirects for the http to https, but not all.

      There should be a 301 solution, but wanted to see if anyone had any advice or guidance. Thanks!

        The simplest solution to fix this quickly is to go to the .htaccess file, add a rule of 301 redirect from http to https, and then it should be good.

        The .htaccess file has more priority than redirects in the site code, so it will be referred to first, before the 302 redirect takes place. Alternatively, you could check the site code or add-ons, the Cpanel configuration or even CloudFlare (if you are using)
