Yes, you can do this by adding the following in the .htaccess

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

Thankyou for the reply!

I am moving here from another hosting service which uses cPanel and on that server the www. works as usual.

So when I transfer my files over, will the .htaccess code already be in there?

Thanks again for your help!

No. .htaccess will be there but the code will not be there.

The code simply rewrites the url which doenn't have www to with www,

Take it as it adds the www to the url.

You can add this to .htaccess file

Thank you again for replying.

One other question:

Currently, my domain is still on the other host. I understand that I have to point it to the x10 servers.

No problem.

However, I am trying to access cPanel on x10 now before changing servers.

What is my cPanel access URL? Is it some variable of

http://controlpanel/mydomain.com ?

The reason I ask is that isn't that same URL already being used on the other server? Which means that I would be logging in to the control panel on the other server, not x10?

Sorry if this is a stupid question! :happysad:

Is it rejecting your username and password or are those links inaccessible?

Try logging in here http://x10hosting.com/login.php with your forum username and password, and then click on the link to your cPanel.

You can also use cpanel.YOURSUBDOMAIN.x10hosting.com if the 2082 ports are blocked for you.

This is good to know information - thanks, and yes, it works well when port 2082 is blocked.

Please clarify if you were having trouble with the login to the account panel or cPanel after my advice.

If you couldn't log into your account panel at http://x10hosting.com/login.php, you need to sign up for a hosting account. If you were able to log into your account panel but not your cPanel, then an administrator is going to have to help you there.

Are you sure you have your account active?, because normaly your forum account shows your Website and yours doesn't do that.

I don't think our forum account shows our website normally. I never filled out my profile and I can't find where it would be listed publicly or anywhere in my forum details at all.

granger99, please log into cPanel using the following url:

http://absolut.x10hosting.com:2082

The username you should be logging in with is:

jeffg99

Don't forget to use the password you used to sign up for the jeffg99 account.

If you have any more issues, please let me know.
