[BoxmanCaleb]

Hello I'm trying to make my website redirect domain.net traffic to www.domain.net I'm running my xenforo root at /var/www/html/

I already did. That .htaccess didn't work. :/

Normally it's:

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

You need to add that to your .htaccess file

 

[BoxmanCaleb]

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mineslam.net[nc]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mineslam.net/$1 [r=301,nc]
    #    If you are having problems with the rewrite rules, remove the "#" from the
    #    line that begins "RewriteBase" below. You will also have to change the path
    #    of the rewrite to reflect the path to your XenForo installation.
    RewriteBase /
    #    This line may be needed to enable WebDAV editing with PHP as a CGI.
    #RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -l [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
    RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]
    RewriteRule ^(data/|js/|styles/|install/|favicon\.ico) - [NC,L]
    RewriteRule ^.*$ index.php [NC,L]
</IfModule>

That's what I have right now. Still does not work.

Are you using friendly urls? It looks like you still have index.php? I don't know if this is related or not.

 

[BoxmanCaleb]

I still have index.php

I am wondering if you need friendly urls enabled before using the .htaccess file. I just don't know for sure since I normally enable friendly urls out of the box. Have you tried to enable friendly urls with the .htaccess file yet?

Do you have a Skype we could talk more on at? I have issues with Friendly URL's as well though.

Sorry I was just trying to help you out through here. Unless someone else chimes in you may have to open a ticket if they support redirects.

OKay no worries. So do I need it enabled?

I would. It's way better for SEO and gives you cleaner links.
