How should I properly setup my .htaccess file?
Well, after trying out all 3 of the options i posted, none worked and one threw a server error. BUT, alas... I found the correct way to do it: <code class="htaccess" title="in your .htaccess file">RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]</code> This is the correct way to forward all non www requests to www.yoursite.com No need to put your domain name, simply add the code above to a .htaccess file on your server and viola! If someone wants to redirect all www to non www then the code would be: ``` > ``` > ``` > <code class="htaccess" title="in your .htaccess file">RewriteEngine On > RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^my-domain\.com$ [NC] > RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://my-domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]</code> > ``` > ``` ``` ``` <code class="htaccess" title="in your .htaccess file">and of course replace the my-domain with your domain ;)</code> ``` ```
