  Thank you!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I wouldn’t worry about it as www is pretty well obsolete and superfluous now. and your site address is https://johnleongck.com/ these days.

  

  www Versus non-www Domains

  On WordPress.com websites, the www version of your domain address will always redirect to the non-www version. This guide explains why it is not possible to use ‘www’ (and why that’s a good thing!) www Web Address Behavior Anyone who types a site address such as www.yourgroovydomain.com will be redirected to the version without www (i.e., yourgroovydomain.com.) You cannot redirect a domain
