 * Hi all,
 * I have been experiencing an issue from redirecting links from example.com to 
   [http://www.example.com](http://www.example.com): all links are redirected to
   the home page instead of the page intended. For instance: example/products is
   always redirected to [http://www.example.com](http://www.example.com).
 * What I have don so far:
    I used to set [http://www.example.com](http://www.example.com)
   as the current main site in wp-config. But I canceled that line which didn’t 
   seem to help.
 * Also from our IT support group, I found out that we have a pointer in Godaddy
   to point example.com to [http://www.example.com](http://www.example.com). But
   if we cancel that pointer, example.com will become invalid.
 * Please advise on what I could do with this problem.
 * Thanks a million!

 * Too hard to say given the limited information. It could be the web server, the
   htacess, or a number of WP configurations. If you posted your real url, I might
   be able to help; or maybe if you show your .htaccess or wp-config.php (custom)
   configurations

 * Hi I solved the problem by adding the following lines in my htaccess:
 * Options +FollowSymlinks
    RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.example.
   com RewriteRule ^(.*)$ [http://www.example.com/$1](http://www.example.com/$1)[
   R=permanent,L]
 * Thanks for the help!
