Images & Thumbs blank when url has "www" in front of it.

Evening all from Sweden!

I did a forum search but alas no luck. If there's a thread about this please link?

PROBLEM: My website: http://dailyphoto.se seems to break if I add www in front of the url as in http://www.dailyphoto.se
The site will load but all images/thumbs go blank.

DETAILS: On my other site this doesn't seem to happen: http://christophergrant.net / http://www.christophergrant.net
I just setup the dailyphoto.se site today with the latest version (2.7.6.2) while the older site, christophergrant.net is running 2.7.6. As well, I previously had a wordpress blog at this url but have since deleted it and it's database.

Thoughts welcome!
Christopher

You have .htaccess file left from wordpress that protects images from hotlinking and watermarks them on-the-fly. It thinks that www. is another site and redirects each image to this url:

http://dailyphoto.se/wp-content/plugins ... RY%201.jpg

Make sure you see hidden files and delete .htaccess

Thanks Nick,

That did it. Oversight/lack of knowledge on my part!

Sincerely,
Christopher
