www and non www

---

Hi

If I go to my site without a www. in front, the links on the home page wont work, the photo links in this case.
If i go to my site with www. in front the links do work.

I found on the internet that i have to redirect my non www to my www. Therefore i need to create a rewrite rule (below).
But I have no idea where to put that code in laytheme or Wordpress.
Can somebody please tell me?

The Code:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^yourdomain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.yourdomain.com/$1 [L,R=301]

And my site:
www.polyvorm.nl

thanks

hey srikken!

If you log in to your webhost you can manage your domains there. In my webhost you can set if you want www or not here. Maybe you have a setting like that too.
Or maybe you can redirect http://www.yourdomain.com to http://yourdomain.com there.

Hi Arminunruh

I Asked my webhost but they gave me the same solution. To put that code (below) in my .htaccess , it doesn't matter where as long as its in there.
Can you tell me how i get to the .htaccess?

The Code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.yoursite.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www. yoursite.com/$1 [R=301,L]

I already have my wordpress address and site address set to the www. version

Thanks.

hey the .htaccess should be in the folder where your website is on your ftp. its a hidden file so if u use filezilla follow this: Make sure you can see hidden files: In the menu of FileZilla go to “Server” and activate “Force showing hidden files”

Yes i found it!
Thanks, the site works perfectly now
