Directing example.com to www.example.com
I have a Django website in DigitalOcean, everything works fine expect routing example.com to www.example.com
I normally fix this using CNAME as the following, and all answers I have found also provide this, but it doesn't work in my case:
Hostname Alias Of TTL(Seconds)
www @ 43200
This normally works in GoDaddy, but in DigitalOcean the www.example.com takes me to the welcome to Nginx page.
So how can I get the www.@.com to display the website?
dns cross-domain digital-ocean cname

If the request reaches your webserver, it means it is not a DNS problem, but a webserver configuration problem, as you seem to have discovered.

hi does adding .example.com make the site vulnerable to HTTP Response splitting or any other?

To future enquirers, I found a solution.
When using gunicorn and nginx as I have done in DigitalOcean
In /etc/nginx/sites-available/site-name
server {
listen 80;
server_name .example.com;
in server_name add .example.com, with emphasies to the . before example.com
and make your CNAME record as I had described in the question.
