Some .htaccess questions

Question

First of all, I'm new to stackoverflow, so sorry if the title should've been more descriptive.

I've searched and tried different solutions posted here on stackoverflow but not a single one seems to solve my specific issue.

First of all, here's my .htaccess file

RewriteEngine On 
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^website\.io [NC]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.website.io/$1 [R,L]

RewriteRule    ^hosting/?$    hosting.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^premium/?$    premium.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^register/?$    register.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^auth/?$    login.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^contact/?$    contact.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^auth/forgot?$    forgot.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^about/?$    about.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^auth/activate?$    activate.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^website/new?$    createwebsite.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^profile/edit?$    editprofile.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^auth/logout?$    logout.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^privacy/?$    privacy.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^profile/?$    profile.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^auth/forgot/reset?$    resetPassword.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^tos/?$    tos.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^website/?$    websites.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^website/manage?$    managewebsite.php    [NC,L]
RewriteRule    ^website/manage/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/?$    managewebsite.php?id=$1    [NC,L]

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.website.io%1 [R,L,NC]

My first problem is that HTTPS is not being redirected properly in some cases. For example, if I enter "website[dot]io" in the address bar, it redirects to "[https]://www.website.io", the desired result. However, if I type either "[http]://website.io" or "[http]://www.website.io" or "www.website[dot]io" it stays in the HTTP, which I don't want it to. Is there a way to ALWAYS redirect the traffic to HTTPS, regardless of the way it's typed in the address bar?

My second problem is that I want to eliminate the last trailing slash from the url in case someone decides to type it that way. Example "[https]://www.site.io/register/" should redirect to "[https]://www.site.io/register" without the last trailing slash.

Thank you so much, everyone!

P.S.: I replaced some "http(s)" with "[http(s)]" because it won't let me post links.

To remove the trailing slash use: (un tested, from : Htaccess: add/remove trailing slash from URL

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]

To Force HTTPS use: (What i use and works with any domains)

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=302,L,NC,QSA]

As for the value inside the [bracket], it can change depending on you configuration or needs.

Just like that, I personnaly found some unexpected behavior when someone tries to access a path that actually exist. Example: if you have a folder called phpClass and someone tries to access example.com/phpClass my code was giving 403 because des directory exist but no index in it. Not sure how( been a while) but i fixed it by ADDING the trailing slash to every request. – Louis Loudog Trottier Feb 05 '17 at 21:02
