I did an SEO analyze with Rank Math, and I've discovered that I have a WWW canonicalization. I don't know exactly when this happened.

When I searched for solutions for this problem I found only the solution to edit .htaccess, but unfortunately, I don't have that file since I'm not hosting the site in Apache as Namecheap told me.

I did Redirect mapper to see the problem, it give me this:

Please, if you know how to solve this sh*t, help me. because it will cause problems to my SEO.
I'm using EasyWp hosting, and I don't really want to migrate the site to Shared Host just because of this problem.

Is there a way to solve this with a redirection plugin?

Note that I want to redirect www to non-www.
 
Unfortunately (but I may be wrong) there is nothing you can do about this if you dont have access to the .htacess file :-(
 
Your pages will have canonical tags and Wordpress itself will soft redirect to your preferred URL. Don't worry about catching duplicate content worries, it shouldn't be a problem. If you're really worried I believe you can perform the redirect with your DNS settings as well.

You just remind me that I'm using cloudflare, this is my DNS in cloudflare. I'm noob at DNS ... I've just noticed that there're 2 www. should I remove them or what?
