Redirect mydomain.com to www.mydomain.com in Multisite wordpress

  • I am using a Multisite WordPress installation (Network Installation). We are using Godaddy as host.

    My issue is that I want to redirect mydomain.com to https://www.mydomain.com which is not happenings (In fact reverse is happening)

    # BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [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).*) $1 [L]
RewriteRule  ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]

# END WordPress

    I strongly urge you not to do this. WordPress Multisite is more persnickity than other installs, and a non-www URL is less likely to have problems.

    I have just two sites in it (for two languages). I need this as that is the business requirement. Is there an alternative? Or do I need to re-install?

    My network site is in sub folder. For example

    Main site (French): mydomain.com
    English Translation site: mydomain.com/en

    You would have to reinstall as https://www.domain.com, but AGAIN, please don’t do this.

    If you do, and have problems with redirect loops after upgrading later, I will point back to this and say “I told you not to.”

    Don’t. It’s not supported. Leave off the www, and tell your clients that this is better for Google. If they think WWW is required, then they don’t know the difference.

    Hi
    Can I use a redirection plugin to change domain address from https://www.mydomain.com/wp to https://www.mydomain.com.

    Regards,
    Mike.

    No. For Multisite, you would need to treat it as a move (or use .htaccess to redirect).
