Body: <p>This just started happening. When I am logged in as admin and system status was off I could still see the front end. Now I can't. I need to set the system status to on in order to see the front end. This isn't ideal for development. Any thoughts?</p>

  This just started happening. When I am logged in as admin and system status was off I could still see the front end. Now I can't. I need to set the system status to on in order to see the front end. This isn't ideal for development. Any thoughts?

  I resolved this by adding a redirect to get rid of the www. The issue was my admin would be www but the front end wasn't.
