MyBB Community Forums

hello. I am running MyBB version 1.4 and would want to know how to redirect http://www.forums.omgafrica.net to http://forums.omgafrica.net. Thanks

It's the same thing? WWW. can be included or excluded, with no diffrence. It isn't something that you can control (at least I don't think so.)

It's same thing how i can see. Type in browser www.google.com and google.com it's same just like your Forum.

Try creating a .HTACCESS file with this:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^forums.omgafrica.net [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://forums.omgafrica.net/$1 [L,R=301]

No buddy, Google thinks not. WWW prefixing an address is different from the same address without the www prefix
