[CRE Loaded] Redirect non www to www

Postby fastdns » Mon May 14, 2012 9:24 pm

Hi,

I have a creloaded site and have purchased and implemented Magic seo url in it.

I want to redirect all non www requests to http://www...i.e. if someone types mydomain.com , he should automatically be redirected to http://www.mydomain.com

I usually do this very easily using htaccess file and the following rule :

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]


But after installing magic seo, it has made a new .htaccess file. I tried placing my piece of code in the beginning of that file, but its not taking any effect.

Any help on how I can resolve this issue will be appreciated by community.

Regards,

fastDNS

Non-www to www or www to non-www redirect (depending on location where MSU is activated) is performed automatically and no extra Rewrite Rules are required.

If you need to add you own custom Rewrite Rules to newly generated .htaccess file anyway you can protect your content by settings this file readonly and/or creating file named "readonly-htaccess" within same directory (doing so is also recommended even if are not using custom content).

We have checked your site and redirect works flawlessly.

You have activated your site on "http://lakebottomblanket.com/" - it means all traffic to http://www.lakebottomblanket.com/ is redirected to http://lakebottomblanket.com.

I want it the other way.

lakebottomblanket.com should redirect to www.lakebottomblanket.com

I checked cpanel's redirect option - Its blank.
I checked includes/configure.php - it has www.lakebottomblanket.com as the sitename.

I even erased your .htacess and visited www.lakebottomblanket.com with a hope that it will correct it, but it still did not work.

So , how do I set it the other way ?

Hello Admin

I went in there, and when I entered my s/n number, page went blank. Now when I check that link again, it says :

Status: Not activated/Not running
At web site:
http://www.lakebottomblanket.com/

Your Magic SEO URLs copy has been activated on this web site in the past as "Live", but is currently inactive.

I request you to please resolve the licensing issue at your end. The other day when you deactivated the license for non www domain, the site went down and client got mad at us.

Please follow instructions in my last post and hit the Reactivate button. That's all you need to do.

We did not shutdown your site. Changing anything in our license server does not affect running activated sites (even if our own server is down). Only you as owner or your host can affect your store.
