Question

When user is visiting by www.domain.name, redirect to domain.name.

Answer 1

Put this in an .htaccess file in your root directory of your website:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} . 
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^domain\.name 
RewriteRule (.*) http://domain.name/$1 [R=301,L,QSA]

This is what they do, in order:

1. Turn the rewrite engine on
2. Make sure that HTTP_HOST was provided
3. If it doesn’t start with the name without the www or any other sub domain, then allow the rewrite to continue. This prevents an endless redirect back to itself.
4. Grab everything after the URL (.*), including the querystring QSA, and redirect R=301 to the correct domain. The L just says this is the last command in the file if a match is found.
