The server itself is running fine, I think this issue might be a network configuration error

Describe your issue as much as you can

This may not be the right place for this, but i'm running out of options. When I access my wordpress site using www. before the domain, I get an entirely different version of the site, an older version, without the most recent blog posts, and a different home page. When I just access the plain domain (without www.), it's totally normal. I've never seen this behavior before and I know i'm just missing something. I've checked DNS at my domain registrar (GoDaddy) and that all looks fine. I tried editing .htaccess to force a redirect, but the same behavior persists. If anyone could point me in the right direction, i'd be eternally grateful :)

Did you confirm both domains (www and non-www) point to the instance's IP address?

If that's correct, please confirm you do not have any specific virtual host for the domains under /opt/bitnami/apache/conf/vhosts.

Thank you for the response! Yes, both www and non-www point to the same public IP (our VPS in GCP). I looked through .htaccess, httpd.conf, and bitnami.conf, the only virtual hosts I see setup are the ones that redirect http to https. I tried adding (separately, in each of these files, then removing after) redirects, following other posts in the community for syntax. So far no luck at all. If I copy a URL path to a document or page or something from the 'non-www' version of the site, and use that path with the www. version of the site, I can still access the content, so I'm confident we're still pointing to the correct site, but I cannot figure out why I get 2 different versions of our homepage and no recent blog posts with the www. version.

Let me ask you this, we have a staging site, but it's not done conventionally (at least I don't think). When we're ready to move staging to production, we clone the staging site, change the public IP assigned to it to make it prod, and assign the public IP from prod back to staging, which essentially flips them. Poking around in the current prod site, i'm seeing references to the staging site (which makes sense), other than the fact that this might not be the best way to accomplish this, are there other areas where redirection might occur that i'm just missing?

Thank you SO much for your support.

This can be closed. It was an SSL issue. Renewed it and recreated the www to non www redirect, which fixed it. Thank you!
