Description
Sissel McCarthy has wordpress.com as her domain provider, and she has successfully mapped her site to the Commons using an A record. However, her www. subdomain throws a security error (doesn't have a SSL certificate). I don't see anywhere in Wordpress.com that allows you to redirect from www.newsliteracymatters.com to newsliteracymatters.com. I see documentation that wordpress.com automatically redirects www. to its base domain name, but that is not happening, I guess because of the "A" record she set up.
see - https://wordpress.com/support/domains/map-existing-domain/
She feels a lot of people are scared away from her site when they see the error thrown on the www. subdomain. Any suggestions?
