I just purchased an encryption certificate but it only covers What I need to do is add a redirect so that whenever someone goes to jigsawrugs.com (typing the site name directly into the url bar without they don't receive a warning that the site is unsafe.
Feel free to check it out yourself. The javascript redirect doesn't seem to work correctly, the page just reloads over and over. How else can I do this that works? Hope I worded this so it is understandable.
Any help Thanks.
 
Doing this on your web server would be the best bet. Ask in the forum for your web server software (e.g. IIS, Apache, etc) to find out how to do this.

Hope this helps,

What exactly is this and how will it help?
I appreciate the post.
 
If you don't know what a web server is, you probably need to speak to whoever develops your sites for you, as it would be pointless to explain in any detail.

Hope this helps,
Dan

I have been in contact with the server. They have told me to use a redirect but the solutions I have found just reload the page over and over. The problem is it's the same address i am redirecting to just with the www. so that doesn't seem to want to work. The server software is apache. I am thinking I need an if statement - if jigsawrugs.com redirect to is the jist of it. I am not that familiar with javascript so I am wondering if that is possible.
Thanks for the time and help.
 
As I've already said, you are best off doing this at a web server level. You've now determined that your web server is Apache, so you should ask in the Apache forum for more information on how to do this, IMHO.
