• To redirect all users to access the site WITH the 'www.' prefix, (http://joomlatags.org/... will be redirected to http://www.joomlatags.org/...), please add the following code to your .htaccess file:

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

• To redirect all users to access the site WITHOUT the 'www.' prefix, (http://www.joomlatags.org/... will be redirected to http://joomlatags.org/...) please add the following code to your .htaccess file:

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

please remember to change joomlatags.org to your domain name.
