getting site to show with www

You first want to check your WordPress settings and make sure you have the URL settings that you want to have. Either non-www or www.

Settings >>> General
WordPress Address (URL)
Site Address (URL)

Rewriting www to non-www and vice versa

Did this answer your question? If so, please resolve this thread. If not, then post a status update. Thanks.

No, unfortunately it did not resolve the issue. I have my settings set to https://soulsecretservice.org but I need the https://www.soulsecretservice.org to show up as well. I just don’t know what to do. I’ve never run into this issue before. Both versions have always showed up before for the other sites I’ve created.

If I change them both (in the settings) to https://www.soulsecretservice.org then the site is completely non visible. Thanks for your time! ??

Wow I have never seen this before. What appears to be wrong is that your DNS A record is not correct. You need to check with your web host.

The www site is being seen as a separate domain then soulsecretservice.org. When you create subdomains you do actually have separate domains and then the www is a separate domain, but something is very odd/wrong about your sites. It must have something to do with DNS.

typical subdomain examples – these would all be separate websites/wordpress installations

www. example.com
blog.example.com
forum.example.com

Your CNAME is wrong that is the problem.

[host] => https://www.soulsecretservice.org
[class] => IN
[ttl] => 3600
[type] => CNAME
[target] => soulsecretservice.org

oops my mistake. your CNAME is fine, but something is screwy with DNS since you have the same domain displaying 2 different websites when you visit the non-www and the same www domain?

nothing shows up on the www. site On all my other sites the www automatically resolves over to the non www domain automatically. For some reason this one isn’t. Not sure what this wackiness is caused from. I really appreciate you taking the time to look into this. You are an angel.

When I visite the www site I see the WordPress Twentytwelve theme installed on that site.
/wp-content/themes/twentytwelve/style.css

when i visit the non-www site i see the Intro-Theme theme installed on that site.
/wp-content/themes/Intro-Theme/css/font-awesome.css

So you must actually have 2 different folders for each of these websites if these are 2 different WordPress installations.

/www.soulsecretservice.org
/soulsecretservice.org

so so weird. There is only one installation of wordpress for soulsecretservice.org. This is the weirdest thing ever! What can I do? Any Ideas? THANK YOU!

There is definitely NOT 2 installs!

Yeah I have never seen anything like this before so the only thing I can think of is something like this. You have 2 different databases.

Any luck figuring this one out?

I checked your site and it looks like you got this figured out. www is redirecting to non-www site and i no longer see 2 different sites.

Can you please relate HOW you figured this out? I’m experiencing the same thing.

Looks like a corrupt WP Super Cache cache problem. This is the Home page for www and non-www below. It’s showing that you have 2 cached pages for your Home page. Delete your WP Super Cache cache.
