Mod re-write conversion...

[Neutral Singh]

Are you able to merge threads?

i did not face any problem !!

Also, the mod requires changes to php files. Did you do the conditionals there too?

I dare not experiment with any of the php files... i see no need of doing it either. i will only apply these condtionals in the templates such as forumhome, showthread etc.

Glad it's working for you aman! Howver I noticed that when a thread is spread over more than one page - only page one ends in .html :-(

What would be really nice is if Dani spared a few moments of her time to take a look at what we are asking for (mod rewrite that works and for guests only) and to give us some hints and tips on how to acieve this. Dani is a member and sponser/advertiser here, so perhaps if we all mass PM'd her she might help us! lol

LOL !! yeah and then she may perhaps ban each of us from vb.org for spamming... just kidding !! Have you checked up with her website exclusively dedicated to mod-rewrite --> http://www.mod-rewrite.com and in that website, you will also realise that the charges for implementing a mod-rewrite on your webiste are a cool $200. So, if you could manage, its all for the taking. And, this may be the reason why we do not get a specific set of instructions on this issue. Anyways, i am indeed happy with what i could implement on my website.

It appears you've installed Dani's mod. That one works fine but does not put thread titles into URLs.

Exactly. And that is probably the most important function of this would-be mod.

Someone did another hack that seems very similar at www.onseo.com. Haven't tested it out yet.

Thanks for that link!! Looks like JUST what I was looking for!! Also judging by how small the htaccess file is and the thread support - looks like THE one to use!!

P.s here's the link the actual thread:

Hey there fellas. I just want to give you an update on the DaniWeb mod_rewrite hack - I've updated it to what DaniWeb is currently using, in a whole new tutorial. There is support for multiple pages, Who's Online (no more Unknown locations!), previous / next threads, linear / hybrid / threaded modes, and much more! Enjoy
