WP3.0 site not redirecting http:\\domain to www.domain (8 posts)

    Prior to upgrading to WP3.0 when I entered http:\\adetaylor.co.uk I would be redirected to http://www.adetaylor.co.uk

    But since upgrading to wp3.01 if I put in the http:\\ I get redirected to http://www.adetaylor.co.uk/wp-signup.php?new=adetaylor.co.uk

    I have user registration disabled but even when I turn it on I run into difficulties.

    Any ideas folks?

    Cheers
    Ade

    Have you tried:

    - deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    - switching to the Twenty Ten theme to rule out any theme-specific problems?

    It's not plugins or themes, just ruled those out.

    Interestingly I'm using networked sites;

    And the site I created http://www.adetaylor.co.uk won't redirect http:\\adetaylor.co.uk to www.

    but....

    the site I created as http:\\prototype.adetaylor.co.uk will redirect http://www.traffic to http:\\prototype.adetaylor.co.uk

    Odd.....

    Tagged as "multisite" in case this is a networking issue. That should attract the right kind of attention. If you haven't had any responses in a day or 2, try re-posting in the Multisite forum.

    It could be some problem with .htaccess file.

    Great, I had the same problem and removing the WWW in the site config page as suggested in
    http://wordpress.org/support/topic/homepage-redirects-to-signup-page?replies=5 (thanks reuben)

    The only issue is that I would like the www. to remain and tried the .htaccess hack to no avail.

    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^portraits.adetaylor.co.uk$
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.portraits.adetaylor.co.uk/$1 [R=301]

    It's not redirecting back.

    Any ideas?

    NB... I've also posted this query in the other post too.
