   Have been having an issue sporadically and couldn't figure out what was going on until this morning: VERY sporadically, a post, page, tag, cateory, or even the main page will not load - no header, nothing but a white background.

   This morning I realized that this page will not load: http://springsbargains.com/2009/10/king-soopers-weekly-deals-october-28-november-3/

   However, it loads just fine if I add the 'www' in there: http://www.springsbargains.com/2009/10/king-soopers-weekly-deals-october-28-november-3/

   This is a VERY sporadic issue but I've got to think there's something that I can do to keep it from happening. Any suggestions?

   Anyone have any ideas? It happened again this week with another post. See this:

   http://springsbargains.com/2009/11/king-soopers-weekly-deals-november-5-11-including-the-mega-event/

   versus this:

   http://www.springsbargains.com/2009/11/king-soopers-weekly-deals-november-5-11-including-the-mega-event/

   It loads without the 'www' on some computers but not others.

   HELP, please!

   Ok, older post...but no answer ever posted...so here's what I did.

   The standard .htaccess file for WordPress is
   

   # BEGIN WordPress
   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
   </IfModule>
   
   # END WordPress

   I added a couple extra lines and substituted my domain's address.
   

   # BEGIN WordPress
   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /
   
   RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.YOURDOMAIN.COM$ [NC]
   RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.YOURDOMAIN.COM/$1 [L,R=301] 
   
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
   </IfModule>
   
   # END WordPress

   This forces all addresses to the www. version.
