OK i tried this but for some reason i couldn't get it to work.
I already have SEO friendly url's running in my subdreamer part of the site so i uploaded the plugin and put the copied
PHP Code:
RewriteRule ^f([0-9]+)-([A-Za-z0-9\-]+)\.html$ forumdisplay.php?f=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^t([0-9]+)(((-p)([0-9]+))?)([A-Za-z0-9\-]+)\.html$ showthread.php?t=$1&page=$5&pp=10 [L]
To my already established .htaccess file
PHP Code:
Options All -Indexes
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php
so i ended up with
PHP Code:
Options All -Indexes
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php
RewriteRule ^f([0-9]+)-([A-Za-z0-9\-]+)\.html$ forumdisplay.php?f=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^t([0-9]+)(((-p)([0-9]+))?)([A-Za-z0-9\-]+)\.html$ showthread.php?t=$1&page=$5&pp=10 [L]
It was working in as much to say that the forum links changed to html links but clicking them resulted in a page not found.
So i thought maybe its the base url as my forums, like many, are in the /forum/ directory of the root.
So i removed that, still the same. So i changed too
RewriteBase /forum
Still the same
and tried
RewriteBase /forum/
Still the same. What did i do wrong ?
