ANSWERED
I found a fix for this.
create an htaccess file with
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^domain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://domain.com/$1 [L,R=301]
This removes the www
That does it for me. Obviously change domain.com to your domain name.
To add the www just add www in front of the domain name (in both instances).
Hope this helps others.
