yeah cool but do normal showthreads and forumdisplay urls still work ?

i.e would a url like http://animeboards.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=2 still work as well as

http://animeboards.com/f2/s ?

hehe. Oh ye of little faith

Yeah they do.

The only urls that are trapped by the mod_rewrite directives are ones that match one of these three expressions:

^/f([0-9]+)/s([^/]+?)$
^/t([0-9]+)/s([^/]+?)\.html$
^/s([^/])+?/$

ie.
/f234/s or /f234/s345345detr3
/t2343/s.html or /t2343/s435345.html
/s/ or /s435345345dfsdf/

Actually I need to clarify in the docs that this assumes your forums are in the web root. Those directives should be prefixed with /forums/ or wherever if your vB is installed elsewhere.
