I have a Django site on Heroku with Dnsimple to manage DNS. I am also using Django to force HTTPS.

I am trying to follow google protocol so that I only have one domain

https://example.com

So that if a user visits http://www.example.com or https://www.example.com it will redirect to https://example.com

My settings in Dnsimple look like this:

ALIAS   example.com     example.com.herokudns.com
CNAME   www.example.com  example.com.herokudns.com

I tried deleting the cname and using the URL redirect in Dnsimple, but it isn't working.

What is the correct way to do this redirect? I've tried creating a middleware based on another outdated post, but it crashed my site.

    Hi yes you need to create custom middleware in Django as Dnsimple does not handle redirect of https addresses. Follow this post here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12759030/heroku-django-redirect-all-requests-for-www-to-root-domain/46233639#46233639 – John Rogerson Apr 10 '18 at 13:15
