Add www to forum url with no trailing slash

[davide101]

Good morning,

I'm using the following .htaccess code to add a www to the url of my forum webpages:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.diabetesdaily\.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.diabetesdaily.com/forum/$1 [R=301,L]

This works flawlessly EXCEPT when there is no trailing slash on the url. For example:
http://diabetesdaily.com/forum

In this case, it appends the home directory on my server to the url like this:

http://www.diabetesdaily.com/forum//...lic_html/forum

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Please try to add another rewrite condition:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} forum/

Thanks! It works perfectly. For future reference, here's what my .htaccess rule looks like:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.diabetesdaily\.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} forum/
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.diabetesdaily.com/forum/$1 [R=301,L]

Worked with Slash on every special character used in the URL. But this seems to be easy then before.
