301 redirects to direct www.

Can I implement this (bellow) on the standard textpattern .htaccess file?

I have tried just putting it underneath the standard code but doesn’t work.

—————————
If you need to redirect http://mysite.com to
http://www.mysite.com and you’ve got mod_rewrite enabled on
your server you can put this in your .htaccess file:

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

or this:

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

(there are also a few

redirect 301 /index.html http://www.domain.com/index.html

redirects on the this .htaccess file)

The problem is that the are x amount of inbound links to www.domain.com and x amount of inbound links to domain.com and need all inbound links to go to the www.domain.com using redirect 301?

Thanks

Put the rewrite rule before Textpattern’s lines to the top of your .htaccess file.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
