Blog Address url

    When we installed WP this address was set at http://w3.try-streaming-video.com

    As we do not want this to be used we changed this to http://www.try-streaming-video.com.

    When we did this the blog could not be viewed.

    Here is what our Hosting service said to us..

    There is something screwy with your setup.

    If one visits http://www.try-streaming-video.com/

    one gets a 301 redirect to http://www.try-streaming-video.com/

    which is just a loop 🙁

    Here is what I get from Firefox.

    The page isn’t redirecting properly Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

    Screwy as in what the code is doing, not what you have done.

    So why would WP do this by simply changing w3 to www.

    The address is not good for SEO either and I would like to see this resolved.

    Current so the site works we have changed the blog address url back to w3 but if you navigate to one of the pages it shows in the url address bar the w3 not www.

    Here is an update from my hosting service in regard to this issue.

    “I am pretty sure that WP is attempting to normalise the address. When a site is behind an HTTP accelerator as this is, that backfires. If it is possible to turn off rewriting, then do, I haven’t had a chance to look in the code yet.”

    So my site is behind an http accelerator and when I try to normalise my url address it backfires.

    So on a server like this is there any way to get my url to be a permanent www.

    Many thanks for any assistance.
