Hmm...it doesn't seem to work for me...After some editing I got it displaying allright, but the url's lead to error pages... for example http://www.nordinho.com/vbull/f4-the...ws-forums.html leads to a error page...any idea's how to solve this or where to start?? My testforum is located at www.nordinho.com/vbull
(The last post in thread works fine by the way)

Greets Nordinho,

@Nordinho: Exactly the same I experience. So mod_rewrite seems to work, but something is going wrong.

@KeithMcL: Could you please bare with us and try to push us in the right direction?

Thanks,

Thomas P, I found us the fix!! :p

Keith used the wrong rewrite lines...your htaccess file should look like the one below...

•

RewriteEngine On
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteRule ^t([0-9]+)-(.*).html$ showthread.php?t=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^lastpostinthread([0-9]+).html$ showthread.php?goto=lastpost&t=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^newpostinthread([0-9]+).html$ showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^f([0-9]+)-(.*).html$ forumdisplay.php?forumid=$1 [L]

Thanks Dani, but it's still not quite right, in the functions/online bit anyway.

 Help with Code Tags 
 PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
$userinfo['where'] = "<a href=\"t$threadid-" .mod_rewrite_title($threadtitle). ".html\" title=\"$threadpreview\">$threadtitle</a> ";
$userinfo['where'] = "<a href=\"t$threadid-" .mod_rewrite_title($threadtitle). ".html\" title=\"$threadpreview\">$threadtitle</a> ";

That line is what works.

hello all... I am thinking of adding vBadvanced CMPS and was wondering if any one is also using it with this Mod_rewrite or have any idea if it will work or not, or any problems that can happen.

Anyone noticed that using this or KeithMcL's hack will close out user who don't use cookies and need sessionhashes?

If it's not a silly question, how would the the file "external.php" need to be modded, so that RSS feed of the forums would show the HTML threads, rather than the dynamic php URLs?
