    You are looking to enable pretty URLs. Add the following to /conf/config.php:

    $Configuration['Garden']['RewriteUrls'] = '1';

    If your forum now breaks, you probably don't have the mod_rewrite enabled in your PHP settings. Work with your host to enable it.

    Ask your host. File a support ticket with them.

    I am guessing they will not enable it for a free account.

    You have to be careful when you put things in the config.php you can break your forum if you don't pay attention to detail in the explanations given. Read the tutorial section here...

    he corrected his .htaccess and fixed the ReWrite base to point to the correct folder

    and made sure he had this set correctly in config.php

    $Configuration['Garden']['RewriteUrls'] =TRUE;

    Question 22 in the FAQ.

    I may not provide the completed solution you might desire, but I do try to provide honest suggestions to help you solve your issue.

  • sandeeprhce5sandeeprhce5 New

    This is very simple just add a line in config.php

    $Configuration['Garden']['RewriteUrls'] =TRUE;

    and this is my .htaccess file ( I did not change anything)

    Original

    If you modify this file then change the above line to: # Modified


    RewriteEngine On
    # Certain hosts may require the following line.
    # If vanilla is in a subfolder then you need to specify it after the /.
    # (ex. You put Vanilla in /forum so change the next line to: RewriteBase /forum)
    #RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php\?p=$1 [QSA,L]

  • vrijvlindervrijvlinder MVP

    Change this

    #RewriteBase /

    To This

    RewriteBase /

    If your forum is in yoursite.com/forum then add this

    RewriteBase /forum
