Links to my site can't be accessed

[start2008]

Hi there,

I transferred my site from one host to another. The problem is missing my site links after transferring as those links were referred to www.example.com/forums/??????????, while after transferring I don't have any /forums directory at my /home directory.

That means all my old posts can't be accessed except I remove /forums from the address.

Is there any way to restore those links to be accessed with the new hostname without /forums directory?

Thanks!

In your Admin CP > vbulletin options -> Site Name / URL / Contact Details

Check that the Forum URL you have entered is still correct for the new server.

Thanks BirdOPrey,

The forum url in options shows /forums at the end while now I don't have that directory in my /home directory.

I tried to change the url to meet my new server path which is the same as www.example.net but also an old posts can't be accessed and take me to a not found page.

Thanks!

Can you PM me a link to your forum? (or post it here.)

Check .htaccess settings and Friendly URL settings.

I got my old .htaccess file which shows:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://egyptianoasis.net/.*$      [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://egyptianoasis.net$      [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.egyptianoasis.net/.*$      [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.egyptianoasis.net$      [NC]
RewriteRule .*\.(avi|mpg|pdf|chm|zip|rar)$ - [F,NC]

RedirectMatch ^/$ http://www.egyptianoasis.net/forums/index.php

Now, I want to redirect all my old thread's Links from http://www.egyptianoasis.net/forums/?????? to open as http://www.egyptianoasis.net/???????? (without /forums)

example:

old link (not working now): http://www.egyptianoasis.net/forums/...read.php?t=409
(The same link is working when delete /forums from address), you can check here: http://www.egyptianoasis.net/showthread.php?t=409

Thanks!
