HSTS on the root domain

We are experiencing some redirection issues we have no control over as they are done in the root domain.

http://oldsite.com redirects to https://www.oldsite.com then finally to https://www.newsite.com

The redirection should be as follows:

http://oldsite.com -> https://oldsite.com -> https://www.newsite.com

Please update Optimzely’s configuration to do these redirects properly

    I'm out of votes but this gets a big +1 from me!

    Ideally it should also be possible to use the root / apex / naked / "without www" domain name as the primary host name for a site.

    Also, this relates to DXP (PaaS-portal/Cloudflare/Azure) and not to "Product Recs".

    +1 - We also have the requirement to add HSTS to a DXP apex domain redirect, the changes should allow apex domain redirects to pass the tests from this site: https://hstspreload.org/ (current issues are the order of redirects and lack of HSTS headers on the HTTP response)

    Hi Pika, Please can you provide more details? I'm not sure how this relates to Product Recommendations.

    +1. We also need support for HSTS on root domain before it redirects to www.
