Cannot access Magento secure urls after rewrite in .htaccess

On Magento, I tried to remove all references to index.php from urls, and now I am unable to access any secure pages apart from Admin.

I get an error message saying: 403 Forbidden You don't have permission to access /index.php on this server. Address: Apache/2.4.9 (Unix) Server at web72.secure-secure.co.uk Port 80

I was able to access all secure links successfully before I followed this guide (http://www.indianwebportal.com/remove-index-php-url-magento ) which said to do the following: - Set Use Web Server Rewrites to YES (Magento Admin) - Set Use secure URL Frontend to YES (Magento Admin) - Add the following code to .htaccess:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

I've cleared the cache, logged out and back in, but nothings worked. I am able to access admin and all pages apart secure front end links.

Any advice would be much appreciated, thank you!

are you trying this on local machine? whats your stack? LAMP or WAMP? – Dakshika
The site is hosted online. I'm almost certain it's on Linux, if that's what you mean? The secure links all worked before I added the code above. Thanks for your message! – Tamsin

Go to admin panel > System > General > Web > Secure

there change your base url to https://

If you running magento on localhost, it may not work.
