You need to make changes in your `.htaccess` file if you're using a APACHE serve. Read more here http://www.easylaravelbook.com/blog/2015/05/27/redirecting-to-https-in-laravel-5/ — Bharat Geleda, Feb 04 '16 at 07:06

You can do redirection from http to https with htaccess file. Put below code in your .htaccess file.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^.*$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]

OR

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

OR

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.com/$1 [R,L]
// change example.com with your website domain
// This will redirect all requests received on port 80 to HTTPS.

To understand how rules are working check this link.

In many cases, you can also just add those lines to a file named .htaccess in the folder that you want to redirect http to https.

Now, when a visitor types http://www.yoursite.com/mypage.htm the server will automatically redirect http to https so that they go to https://www.yoursite.com/mypage.htm

Note: You can also redirect a single page from http to http in Apache by using this in your configuration file or .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^apache-redirect-http-to-https\.html$ https://www.yoursite.com/apache-redirect-http-to-https.html [R=301,L]

This link will also help you.

Hope it will help you :)

hey to redirect any pages you have to use in your controller on top

use Redirect;

in your function you can call which you want like this

return Redirect::route('foldername.filename') //ex - return Redirect::route('consignees.show')

and redirect back you can use this

return redirect()->back();
