Re: redirect homepage without www
Typically this works when inserted into the .htaccess file.
Make sure you've changed the .htaccess file name from htaccess.txt to .htaccess
More here for reference on thishttp://www.mattfarina.com/2007/07/24/ww ... o-question
Code: Select all
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Re: redirect homepage without www
Does moving the two added lines up to immediately follow "rewriteengine on" make a difference?

Re: redirect homepage without www
Double check the type of server that you're running. Apache or IIS?

Re: redirect homepage without www
Well - i guess that's why changing the htaccess file did nothing.
The web.config file is there for IIS setups.
never tried it on IIS - try this: http://forums.iis.net/t/1148516.aspx

Re: redirect homepage without www
The code above is for Apache servers and does not work with IIS.
For anyone that does use this with Apache, there's explicit instructions detailed in the file for where to place any additional redirects.
