Fantastic hack! But I have some problems:

Okay, a.m. fastforward's hint works for me,
but I have problems with rewriting in general as it seems.

This is my .htaccess on Apache 1.3.20 placed in the root dir.

Code:

RewriteEngine on

RewriteRule ^forum/f([0-9]+)/s([^/]*)/$ /forumdisplay.php?forumid=$1&s=$2 [L]

RewriteRule ^forum/t([0-9]+)/s([^/]*)/thread\.html$ /showthread.php?threadid=$1&s=$2 [L]

RewriteRule ^forum/[ft]([0-9]+)/s([^/]*)/(.+)$ /$3 [L]



# Testing

RewriteRule ^forum/foo/(.*)$ /bar/index.html [R]

Test:

http://mcseboard.de/forum/foo/

is rewritten to

http://mcseboard.de/bar/index.html

So, rewrites seem to work - just try the link.
But my board behaves as usual making no notice of the rules as it seems.
What's going wrong here?

Thanks for any hint,
-Tom

P.S.: I don't have access to httpd.conf or the RewriteLog if there is...

This is what i have in my .htaccess in the root directory:

Quote:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^vbulletin/f([0-9]+)/s([^/]*)/$ /forumdisplay.php?forumid=$1&s=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^vbulletin/t([0-9]+)/s([^/]*)/thread\.html$ /showthread.php?threadid=$1&s=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^vbulletin/[ft]([0-9]+)/s([^/]*)/(.+)$ /$3 [L]

and the rule does not appear to work :(

My vB is here: http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/index.php

any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

does rewriting work in general?

Try to test it with something like
RewriteRule ^vbulletin/foo/(.*)$ /bar/index.html [R]

Enter http://yourdomain/vbulletin/foo/

Rewriting works for me in general, but the board doesn't seem
to be affected...

RewriteRule ^vbulletin/foo/(.*)$ /index.php [R]

that works,
when you go to http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/foo/
it directs you to the index page.

Then we seem to have the same problem... :(

Sure does look like it.

This may or may not help. It will probably confuse things even more :)

Here's what I have in my httpd.conf:

Code:

RewriteRule ^/f([0-9]+)/?$ /forumdisplay.php?forumid=$1&s=$2 [L]

RewriteRule ^/t([0-9]+)\.html$ /showthread.php?threadid=$1 [L]

I dispensed with the session tag as it wasn't really helping the spiders becaue the number would change each time anyway. I also edited all my templates to sort out the drop-down problems (I did this before I read porfiry's post).

In your problem examples I notice you don't start the url with a slash. You might want to try that. You never know.

Hi fastforward,

thanks for answering, I tried that, but it didn't seem to work :(

Are these the only two line regarding rewrite in your conf?
Where is the one which builds the /f1/... or /fx/...? :)

I really would like to sort it out since this is one of the most useful hack for vB ever - maybe even for php-based sites in general.

Thanks,
-Tom
