Modify htaccess, to redirect index.php to folder/index.php

Question

Here is what I currently have in the .htaccess file:

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

I am trying to make it so when a visiter visits the website: www.example.com instead of loading index.php I want it to load folder/index.php instead.

I saw something online like this RewriteRule ^index.php /folder [R=301] , but that doesnt seem to work.

Is there a way to do this, while keeping the functionality the .htaccess currently has.

You can use:

RewriteEngine On

# http => https 
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,NE,R=302]

# load folder/index.php for landing page
RewriteRule ^/?$ folder/index.php [L]
