Help My domain rewrites to http://domain.com instead of www

My domain motorcyclepartshonda.com

It fowards to http://motorcyclepartshonda.com instead of www. no matter if you put the www. infront of it or not.

Can someone please tell me where the code for this is to change?

Re: Help My domain rewrites to http://domain.com instead of www

It looks like you have a re-write on your site ...

If you are using SEO ... turn it off ... does it work?

Re: Help My domain rewrites to http://domain.com instead of www

I don't think that this is an SEO rewrite, but a rewrite set up by your hosts.

When your hosting is added then instead of having zone file entries for both https://www.yourdomain.com and yourdomain.com the system is only setting up entries for yourdomain.com and automatically symlinking https://www.yourdomain.com to it.

That's my guess - could be wrong - but I have seen it elsewhere.

Re: Help My domain rewrites to http://domain.com instead of www

Confirming Vger...that is definitely an issue with the fashion your host has setup your site. It could be fixed on the webserver level or the DNS host record level.

I think the easiest thing to do is to check for a CNAME record in your host records, called www, and see where it points.
