Non www. URL to redirect to www. URL in Wordpress

Hello!

Im having a problem with a site that i built for a customer (www.jurisprudentia.fi). I cant get the site to redirect users that type in "jurisprudentia.fi" to "www.jurisprudentia.fi".

Additionally if user types the URL with out "www." the site displays a page that just says "page ok".

Can some one help me? Is the problem related to the website or DNS? How to fix it?

Thank you already beforehand! Mikko

You can try this plugin. https://wordpress.org/plugins/redirection/ or https://wordpress.org/plugins/seo-redirection/ Not sure if it will resolve a DNS Issue but it can help with redirection of one link to another. It's a free WordPress Plugin.

I am no expert, but I would look into your DNS. It seems like a DNS record is messed up.

It could also be a .htaccess problem, but I don't know a whole lot about .htaccess either :/ Sorry.
