    Hi, did anyone use a Preferred domain option?
    When I chose to use "www" I noticed that 2 versions of my site now appear in My Sites, like this:
    What a hell? :confused:

    Agreed, pretty weird and newly created entry has also option to choose Preferred domain open instead of it at lest being already set to Preferred domain so I just disabled it again and deleted duplicate domain, I got htaccess redirect in place anyway.

    It's not a bug, but a deliberate feature. When you select your preferred domain, the following message is displayed the screen (note the second sentence):

    So, you can ignore or delete it if you want, but there may be some valuable diagnostics that you are missing.

    Cryo.
