Wordpress .htaccess Help

I am trying to setup a simple re-direct for my Wordpress Blog in my .htaccess file.

What I want is if people visit:

mydomain.co.uk

Code (markup):

they get re-directed to:

www.mydomain.co.uk

Code (markup):

Has anyone got this working?

Thanks in Advance

 

wp-admin/options-general.php

change the "Site address (URL)" option located in Setting==>General (in wp admin panel)

 

That is already correct (with www.) but it still allows access without.

Any other ideas?

 

Think this is what you're looking for.

RewriteEngine on
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^yourdomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.yourdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Code (markup):

 

Thanks, has this been tested with Wordpress? The code I tried works fine with basic websites but not with Wordpress.

 

tbh, I hadn't tried it with Wordpress. No, it doesn't work.

What about some of these plugins - maybe one of them will do the job you want?

Just use A Plugin Called "Redirection" !! That seems to be a powerful one!!

But, One or the other way, some one will be bringing out the correct Htaccess Code here

~ExP~

 

I was nearly right. This was bugging me.

Here's the code for Wordpress (tested btw). You need to replace the existing block of Wordpress code in your htaccess file with code below.

Redirect www.domain to non-www.

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.yourdomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://yourdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

Code (markup):

and for non-www to www.domain

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^yourdomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.yourdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

Code (markup):

OR

If you are comfortable editing the htaccess, just add the two lines under RewriteEngine On to the existing code.

These:

or these (depending on whether you want www. or not) see above:
