Renaming showthread.php

[Jordban]

Hello,
I'd like to be able to rename showthread.php to debatethis.php

Obviously I can just rename the file, but i need to tell the rest of vbulletin to point here.

How does one accompish this? I've tried google, with no results.

Thanks in advance,

Jordan

EDIT: I was thinking, another solution might be to use htaccess to make it appear as debatethis.php, but that's a pretty makeshift solution.

I'd definately go with the .htaccess route. vBulletin references filenames like showthread.php everywhere, and it'd take you ages to go and change them everywhere :)

I agree with Dean, .htaccess is a good option, it is hardly "makeshift"

The other alternative is to create a symlink

I would advise any of this. What the name of the script is makes no real difference. But once you start with this, you will get a lot of links posted with this new name, making it difficult to ever revert back to standard naming.
