You can not go back to old links.
You can write a parser that will convert them on the fly.

thanks kallosz,

In the url, each URL have an "index.php/" in it . such as http://aaa.com/index.php/discussion/30

"Use Garden's .htaccess file to rewrite urls" in Dashboard/Site settings/General.

the .htaccess doesn't work.
I m sure the server is normal, cause I have orther site such as wordpress use rewrite.
I m wondering it is because I use the subdomain for the forum??

What is your webhost, are they running CGI/FCGI/?

That error message sounds like nginx+FastCGI misconfiguration. Any more information for us?

I have the same Problem!
My Webhost seems to support rewriterule, but i also get the "No input file specified. "-message...

same issue, i enabled "Use Garden's .htaccess file to rewrite urls" in Dashboard/Site settings/General. .... gives me

"Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request."

my host also supports rewrite, it works on other installations

Edit conf/config.php and remove $Configuration['Garden']['RewriteUrls'] = TRUE;
