Wanted: Service Also need someone to fix my forum, shows users logged out without www

[MPinelli]

for whatever reason, if the main address the user is using is missing the WWW it appears they are logged out.

i have exhausted google, and tried many many fixes at VBadvanced and at VB's site.

the site is www.guitarheroforum.com

it seems its a simple fix, so maybe im missing something.

Without looking at it or anything that sounds like a 5 seconds fix.
Basically you want it to add the www. no matter what they type, personally i always miss it out and get pissed when some forum webmaster hasn't set it like i usually do haha.

Anyway here is the quick fix. Open the .htaccess and throw in the following code in there; (note; if there's stuff in your htaccess throw the following code on top of everything (make sure you save a copy of whats there first just in case something explodes and you have to return things to what they were hahahaha boom. j/k))

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^guitarheroforum\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.guitarheroforum.com/$1 [R=301,L]

:smilewinkgrin:

There, i was raised to do everything myself, so now you can do it yourself
