How can I make it so that whenever a page on mydomain.com is accessed without www to go to www.mydomain.com, please?

Thank you.

Try this in your .htaccess file:

Options +FollowSymLinks RewriteEngine on # redirect for http RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain\.com$ [NC] RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} =80 RewriteRule ^/?(.*)$ http://www.mydomain.com/$1 [R=301,QSA,L,NE] # redirect for https RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain\.com$ [NC] RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} =443 RewriteRule ^/?(.*)$ https://www.mydomain.com/$1 [R=301,QSA,L,NE] 

R=301 will redirect with https status 301
L will make last rule
NE is for no escaping query string
QSA will append your existing query parameters

$1 is your REQUEST_URI

  • Your ^(.*)$ will capture the leading slash; you don't want to add a second in the location that you're redirecting to. Commented Apr 10, 2011 at 22:29
  • I don't need the FollowSymLinks do I? Commented Apr 11, 2011 at 11:31
  • It's not 100% good yet. :) If I enter: mydomain.com/folder/ it will go to www.mydomain.com instead of www.mydomain.com/folder/. Commented Apr 11, 2011 at 11:36
  • Also, I would like it to keep https if that's how it came. Commented Apr 11, 2011 at 11:41
