I'm using your phpbb3 Ultimate SEO mod and I am trying to rewrite topic and forum URLs a little differently then the vanilla install of the MOD.


My phpbb files are installed @:
www.example.com/phpbb/
I have a portal installed and the URL "www.example.com/phpbb/" is setup to show the portal page.

I have the board in properly setup to show at:
Board Index: www.example.com/phpbb/forum/
Forums: www.example.com/phpbb/forum-name/
Topics: www.example.com/phpbb/forum-name/topic-title/t.#/


I'd like the topic and forum URLs to work as:
http://www.example.com/phpbb/forum/forum-name/
http://www.example.com/phpbb/forum/forum-title/topic-title/.t#/

Is there any way I could accomplish this?

Can you post your current .htaccess file? It is probably just a matter of putting forum in front of a few lines.

Tried this, and it didn't work. The URLs would get redirected by the zero dupe.

Do note that is HTACCESS works with the current setup I have.

Code: Select all

DirectoryIndex portal.php index.php index.html index.htm

# Lines That should already be in your .htacess
<Files "config.php">
   Order Allow,Deny
   Deny from All
</Files>
<Files "common.php">
   Order Allow,Deny
   Deny from All
</Files>
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
