Mod install seems to work, forum links unchangedPosted: Mon Apr 28, 2008 9:10 pm    Post subject: Mod install seems to work, forum links unchanged

So I went through the installation steps. I loaded the mod to an existing installation. I uploaded the robots.txt and .htaccess files assigning proper rights.

And I am able to access forums via the new friendly url's. But my forum still uses the old -http://....forum.com/viewforum.php?f=5 style links.

How do I get the forum to use the new SEO friendly urls throughout the site?

I cleared my cache from within the admin. I've also gone into Styles and cleared the Style cache.

What step am I missing?

I loaded the .htaccess file to the root of the site. I made sure permissions were set to 755 on it. I made sure the friendly url's were accessible.

And then I updated the "Activate URL rewriting" setting in the ACP_CAT_PHPBB_SEO tab.

But still, the friendly links do not show up throughout my site. Anything else I can try out?

I saw a similar post but that person was running a prerelease version of phpbb 3.

If you see "ACP_CAT_PHPBB_SEO" in the acp, it means that you did not fully install the mod (language changes in this case).

So please make sure you implemented all install steps, there are no reasons why rewriting would not work.
