my friend (who is a business owner for her own Eye Lash cosmetic company) is having issues getting to her website
When i put inmyfriendswebsite.com
i get an Index page
like this: https://i.imgur.com/xsUirIW.pngwhen I use
www.myfriendswebsite.com
i goes through.
Weirdly enough it doesn't work for her either way she puts the address in.so ; it's joycelashes.com
Same behaviour here, but now she got some free promotion She will thank you later when her SEO takes off.
So this implies that the configuration file has different entries for www and the default pages. Need to take a quick look there, like the httpd.conf file or the nginx.conf file (more likely the associated conf.d file collection that they pick up). Should be really simple to see that there are two entries and either merge the bad one into the good one, or just copy the good one.
No idea where this is, and she doesn't either..
which makes it odd that she would have affected it - though I suppose if she changed the name of the actual file - it's possible the system she's using will update the www based config, but not the default config.

I dont think she affected the file it's self. I think it's been like this for a while.

@Dashrender She is using Square Space ; Purchased the domain, I think it's self hosted..
Idk. I just told her that if she needs IT Support for her business in the future to let me know.

Nope, I sure didn't, My guess is it's a lot like GoDaddy?

Not the same; both offer Hosting but that's literally the only similarity

Fuck Off Dustin.

I didn't know SS offered hosting... meh.
So assuming the site is actually on SS, I would say a call to their support is in order - either that or SS operates only on the assumption of www.domainname.com

that's what I told her to do: Call their support and let them know that this is going on.

how does she not know? That's a pretty major problem for a business owner to not know where her own website is!

Actually, that doesn't surprise me in the least. Just because they set it up on SquareSpace doesn't mean they understand it's hosted there, etc. There is so much disconnect - all they know is they log into some website to make updates and it just works... hosting - what the hell is hosting? I just have a website, that's all I know.

WTF, that is their entire point of existing...

SS is only hosting. GoDaddy does hosting as an aside.
SS is like Wix, hosting with tools to make it easier for people who think WP is too hard and don't want to hire help. So she absolutely knew where it was.

As that's their only thing, what did you think that they did?
