XF 1.4 Redirecting www to non-www

[dtommy79]

Hi,

I'm trying to redirect www URLs to non-www. I tried every version from the FAQ, but didn't work.

My forum is in a subdirectory. I'm using this rule:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} www.example.com/forum$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/forum$1 [R=301,L]

Should it work or I'm doing something wrong?
Thanks

The HTTP_HOST line can't have the directory -- it's just www.example.com that should be listed.

I've changed it but now I'm getting 404 pages. Obviously I'm doing something wrong so here is my entire .htaccess file:

# Mod_security can interfere with uploading of content such as attachments. If you
# cannot attach files, remove the "#" from the lines below.
#<IfModule mod_security.c>
# SecFilterEngine Off
# SecFilterScanPOST Off
#</IfModule>

ErrorDocument 401 default
ErrorDocument 403 default
ErrorDocument 404 default
ErrorDocument 405 default
ErrorDocument 406 default
ErrorDocument 500 default
ErrorDocument 501 default
ErrorDocument 503 default

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On

# If you are having problems with the rewrite rules, remove the "#" from the
# line that begins "RewriteBase" below. You will also have to change the path
# of the rewrite to reflect the path to your XenForo installation.
RewriteBase /forum
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} www.mysite.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://mysite.com/forum$1 [R=301,L]


# This line may be needed to enable WebDAV editing with PHP as a CGI.
#RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -l [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^(data/|js/|styles/|install/|favicon\.ico|crossdomain\.xml|robots\.txt) - [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^.*$ index.php [NC,L]


</IfModule>

Just in case anyone else needs this. This is what worked for me:

RewriteBase /forum
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [NE,R=301,L]

@dtommy79 thanks for this, how would I go about changing non-www to www?
