To redirect your WordPress website from the www version to the non-www version after switching to Webflow, you can follow these steps:
1. Set up your Webflow site: First, make sure that your Webflow site is set up and functioning properly. Ensure that you have published your Webflow site as a custom domain that you want to use for your website.
2. Update your DNS settings: Next, you'll need to update your DNS settings to point your domain to your Webflow site. This typically involves adding a CNAME or an A record to your DNS provider's settings. Consult Webflow's documentation or reach out to their support team for specific instructions on how to do this.
3. Verify domain connection: Once you have updated your DNS settings, you'll need to verify the domain connection in your Webflow project settings. This will ensure that your domain is properly connected to your Webflow site.
4. Set up redirects in Webflow: After confirming the domain connection, you can set up redirects in Webflow to redirect all traffic from the www version of your domain to the non-www version. To do this, go to your Webflow project settings, click on the "Hosting" tab, and scroll down to the "Redirects" section.
5. Add a redirect: In the "Redirects" section, click on "Add redirect." In the "Old Path" field, enter "www.yourdomain.com" (replace "yourdomain.com" with your actual domain). In the "New Path" field, enter "yourdomain.com" (without the www prefix). Make sure to select the appropriate redirect type, such as a 301 permanent redirect.
6. Test the redirect: Save the redirect and test it by visiting the www version of your website. It should automatically redirect to the non-www version. Ensure that the redirect works correctly and that you don't encounter any issues.
7. Update links and references: After setting up the redirect, make sure to update any links or references to the www version of your website. This includes internal links, external links, and any scripts or integrations that may reference the www version. Update them to use the non-www version of your domain.
8. Monitor and troubleshoot: Monitor your website's traffic and behavior after implementing the redirect. If you notice any issues or unexpected behavior, review the settings in your Webflow project and reach out to their support team for assistance.
By following these steps, you should be able to successfully redirect your WordPress website from the www version to the non-www version after switching to Webflow.
