[Radiant] Removing www from URL

Hi Suzanne,

This is something that you could be handling quite easily in your web server
rather than in your application. In Apache for example, adding the following
right after the "RewriteEngine On" line would achieve what you want:

# Redirect non-mydomain.co.uk domains
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} .
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^mydomain\.co\.uk
RewriteRule (.*) http://mydomain.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]

After this you should have the default Rails/Radiant content and everything
will get picked up correctly as the above code is only processed when the
domain does not match your wanted domain and halts processing after the
redirect when it doesn't.

Best Regards,
Kevin Ansfield
