**From the original thread
Sorry to be a pain but I would love this hack to work but I have obviously done something wrong
the forums come up correctly but I get a 404 error on every page. I have redone the hack from start three times now but the same thing always happens
You can see at www.forums.ic-games.co.uk
Any idea whats up? I have tried to read as much of this thread as I can put its getting on 12 pages and I may have missed something.
Any help appreciated

How would I know that rewrites are activated on the server? Having problems doing this hack yet everyone else has success :p
My last guess is that I cannot do this on our server?
However the "/" error is still not fixed on the instructions and the last code changes feature repeated steps. Could someone clean up the original instructions as its a nightmare in its current form and obviously people (me anyway :p) are still visiting this thread for the first time

Easy way to check if it's working or not is to upload the phpinfo file. Search the results for mod_rewrite. If it's listed an installed module under the Apache heading then it's there and running, if it doesn't show up then it hasn't been installed.

In the multiple pages of replies to the original thread, many amendments / other ideas were discussed. This thread simply implements some of those other ideas, so one doesn't have to read through so many posts.

Small issue.
I did everything, ran it, looked fine got error pages. Changed the .htaccess as suggested by another poster - looked great.
One problem remains
One of my forum "headers" and one of my forum "links" shared the same name, so the generated HTML was identical for two different sections.
I went into the admin section and renamed the forum link prt to add an additional word but the html didn't update leaving two links with the same name.
As a result clicking either of these givees a popup saying:
How can I fix this? Also does this mean when I add new forums to the site they wont be updated either?

Actually looking further into it the original file name has a semi colon : in it. I'm wondering if that is causing a problem?
