If I were in your place, I would first deal with setting things either for www or for non-www, then see what I have:
# Rewrite non-www to www
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
# Rewrite www to non-www
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

This is my present .htaccess file :
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?footprintsforever.com$
RewriteRule ^(/)?$ ff [L]
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /ff/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ – [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
——-CAn you please guide me on what changes to make … ?
Disclaimer: I am not a coder — I only know how to copy-and-paste!
Here is what I would likely try in your case:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
# footprintsforever.com
RewriteBase /ff/
# Rewrite non-www to www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^footprintsforever\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.footprintsforever.com/$1 [R=301,L]
# continue default WordPress
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]
# add whatever this might do
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
# send domain to index.php
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
In my own case, I only ever let BulletProof Security write my .htaccess and that is what I would suggest if the above does not work.
