You can see a wide variety of forums that have installed Zoints (both new and old versions) in our Community Directory:

I've just installed this, it installed fine but when I try and view any profiles/blog link I get a 403 Error - Forbidden.
I tried re-doing it with the .htaccess file uploaded but still no good.

What am I doing wrong or what haven't I done properly?

Thanks :)

I have a similar issue with the 403 error. Except mine is only when I have the friendly urls enabled. I uploaded the htaccess to "z". I get 403's for everything if it's enabled. If I turn it off, everything works fine.

Where do I find that?

:)

If this is reply to me, it's in ACP/Zoints Local config.

Yes it was sorry I wasn't clear.

Thank you, will give that a go :)


ETA - I cant find that. I have the ACP--->Zoints Profile Settings--->Zoints VB options/admin area/member control/profile pages/profile blocks
Am I looking in the right place?

in ZAdmin there is a link to change installation settings. through that link you can turn mod_rewrite on or off for your installation.

I found that bit I get this message...

You do not have sufficient privileges to perform this action. I'm using my main admin log in so I don't understand what that means?

Anybody able to help with the re-write rules? I put the htaccess file in the z directory. But when I turn on mod rewrite, no pages are accessible. I can only use this turned off. I want my members to be able to use the simple custom urls instead of what is created without the rewrite.

My only other question......I already have an htaccess at my forum root which is my domain root. My whole site is vb. So, should I just take the custom rules and drop them in that htaccess file and get rid of the zoints local at the z root?

Thanks

thank you so much this working perfectly
