We have developed a wordpress site recently, if i just type http://example.com in browser i will get the site, but if i type www.example.com it is not displaying anything, what happened to it, is there any problem to my htaccess? My site url and homeurl is http://example.com, i have tried with different options in my htaccess badluck, i just want to redirect the www.example.com to http://example.com.

Try this into htaccess

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1/$1 [R=301,L]

Can you check which IP address it points to when www version of your url is accessed ? Is it the same as your non-www version one ? If YES, then paste the below code on top of the htaccess file. Search and replace all the www versioned urls from DB to non-www versioned( if any ).

Options +FollowSymLinks 
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} .
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^example\.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://example.com/$1 [R=301,L]

To check if both urls are pointing to same host, you can use Flagfox addon
