Hi, what platform? cPanel has this kind of redirect built in. Could also force HTTPS in .htacess (which you can google).
Make sure to set your $config['base_url']
in application/config/config.php
to your https base url.
I also redirect www URL's as well in .htacess.

I have a Cpanel (HostGator)...will look into that later on as well as changing things within the config file. Thanks again!!!

You need to change all http calls to https, if you use base_url then just changing that
should fix all the rest.

It's in the 'Domains' utility (force https redirect).
