    To let your site open with the www. in front of the domain name, you have to add the following to the .htaccess file (must be in the root directory of your site):

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

      You have to pick a canonical name for your site. It looks like right now they are showing without the www.

      If you use "Wordpress" you can change this in "Settings". I don't know where to do it in a forum though, depends on the plataform.

      But on most sites, just add this in the header (In between <head> </head>) of the index.html (Main file of the site):
      <link rel="canonical" href="http://www.yoursite.com">

      I hope this helps you.
