# 2.7 Redirection Issue

 * I set up a website for a musician friend who is using three different domains,
   due to her long Gaelic name. Below WP 2.7, two of the domains forwarded automatically
   to the primary one I set in the options page.
 * Now with 2.7, they don’t forward and all three domains work as they are which
   could be bad for search engine rankings which are really needed as she is releasing
   her first solo project.
 * Can anyone help me get that redirection working again??

 * That redirection did not change in 2.7, it should still forward to the primary
   domain as you’d expect.
 * Did anything else change? Any odd .htaccess rules you’re using? What permalink
   style is set?

 * There’s nothing weird in my .htaccess, just the usual:
 *     ```
       # BEGIN WordPress
       <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
       RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
       </IfModule>
   
       # END WordPress
       ```
   
 * The permalink setting is _Month and name_.
 * Could there be anything I could add to .htaccess to fix it?
 * Thanks so much for the quick reply!
