Hi Charlene,

I believe this code will work...

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^replaceyoursalary.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.replaceyoursalary.com/$1 [L,R=301]

Replace my site URL with yours. Then you need to place the code in your .htaccess file. That should do it.

Hi Charlene,

You have to click on the edit button on the far right of the file. It's a little icon that when hovered over will say "Edit." Click that and the editor window will appear for you to copy and paste the code in.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

I don't know too much about it. Your file could be different than mine and may have other code in it that may be interfering with the new code. Someone else here will no what to do. Just take the code back out for now until you can get more help. Sorry.

Suzanne Morrison or Pat should know what to do. Hopefully they'll be in here soon to get things straightened out.

Thank you Alan

Hi Charlene,

The code you should be using is

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.cashwizzards\.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.cashwizzards.com/$1 [R=301,L]

You should also redirect index.html as well using this code

RewriteEngine on
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^.*/index\.html
RewriteRule ^(.*)index.html$ http://www.cashwizzards.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Cheers,
Mike.

ErrorDocument 404 http://www.pluginprofitsite.com/main-25303

That is what is built when your site is set up and it needs to remain in the .htaccess file

It can be above or beneath the other code I guess, but it needs to be exactly like that - intact, etc. or you can create an error where your website will not display at all.

This is what redirects any typos or errors people make when typing your domain name, to the sales page instead.

Yeah, my site wasn't set up that way, which was over 3 years ago. I use the missing.html page to redirect any typos, ect. based on Host4Profit's directions.

So I guess my htaccess file is different.
