I hope someone can help me out.

I just tried installing the advanced rewrite and now my page looks like this

http://www.homebasedbusinesst.com/forums

I am not exactly sure what this meant in the instructions

#
#-----[ COPY ]--------------------------------------------------
#

copy phpbb_seo/*.* to phpbb_seo/*.*

so what I did was open up the adv_mod_rewriteV0-2-4 folder and copy the entire phpbb_seo into my root directory?

Is that right?

Ok I think I fixed it

Can someone please verify that everything looks good?

all I did was put the phpBB_seo folder into the /forums/ folder and it seems to be working?

Anyone see anything wrong with my site, I would greatly appreciate the feed back!

Thanks for the mod!!

I think I have everything figured out .. trial and error

The advanced mod does not put category titles in the TITLE Tag does it?

How come you have installed a phpbb seo mod, but there is no phpbb seo link on your pages?

True, the final touch is something important for us all

I have a question about the .htaccess file.

This is what mine currently looks like.

Code: Select all

ErrorDocument 404 /404.html

# You could need to un-comment the following line
# Options +FollowSymlinks

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

But something is now messed up on my hosting?

If you go to http://www.webrankinfo.com/english/tool ... header.php and type in my www.homebasedbusinesst.com address then it comes up with a 302 error?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Well, keeping the link is one of the condition to get support here, I hope you understand this is not much for all the work being done.

Anyway, if you look at the returned header :

HTTP Status Code: HTTP/1.1 302 Moved Temporarily
Content-Length: 0
Location: /?39aac0b8

It actually concerns all of your websites pages, and I really don't think it could be the phpBB SEO mods, looks more like a dumb server setting, to handle sessions or something like that.

Ok link is up at my Home Based Business Forums at the bottom!

Sorry for doing that so late!

I dont understand .. what can be done about this?

Was my .htaccess file ok to work with? any modifications there?

I guess we'll continue with this matter on the other thread you started
