That would be ideal since I have no idea what you're talking about.

Re: How do I setup a Homepage like this? vbadvance Okay, make a file in your forums folder .htaccess and put this info in it Code: RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} index.php
RewriteRule index.php http://site.com/forum/ [L,R=301]

Re: How do I setup a Homepage like this? vbadvance Are we talking about a text file? So make a text file named ".htaccess" copy/paste above code, and then move to forum folder. Sorry if these seems obvious.  Okay, I went ahead and made a wordpad text file with the copy/pasted info. I now get a 500 Internal Server Error Quote:

Re: How do I setup a Homepage like this? vbadvance I'm still having trouble here.  My site goes to: www.mysite.com/forum/index.php I want it to go to: www.mysite.com/forum Same thing goes with the main home page, when someone clicks on home page link from the homepage it goes to: http://www.mysite.com/index.php?pageid=home I also want to make sure the user see www in front all the time too. I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong with the .htaccess file. Hmm? Quote |

Re: How do I setup a Homepage like this? vbadvance Well vbseo should be able to help you with that. But in .htaccess it should be like Code: RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^site.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.site.com/$1 [L,R=301]

Re: How do I setup a Homepage like this? vbadvance Me personally ... I cant stand those entry portal BS pages ... I like to cut to the chase and get on with it, I tend to bookmark the forum. Even all these ads piss me off, I got rid of them all on my forum. Advertising is distracting and clutters the reason I'm here. If there is something of real value and interest that we should click on then make a thread out of it and talk about it, which for the better part is what happens in most threads. Did you ever notice that theres some coincidence between spam emails, posts/threads content, and the Goolge ad? I have and when I got rid of ads and shut down emails most of it went but some remains. Also I ran a bad neighbourhood scan and guess what, yeah some of those ads are considered a bad place so personally, I looked for other ways of raising revenue. But that's just my 0.02 Quote |

Re: How do I setup a Homepage like this? vbadvance Code: RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} index.php
RewriteRule index.php http://www.site.com/forum/ [L,R=301] 1) This code worked, however now when I click on adminCP it brings me to the www.site.com/forum. What gives? 2) How do I do the same thing for my homepage? Should I just wait to install vbseo and do all this if its easier? Last edited by Luigi; 10-12-2007 at 05:17 PM.. Quote |

Re: How do I setup a Homepage like this? vbadvance That isnt something you should do as if anything ends with index.php then it links it to the /forum/ ;) and vbseo will do this for you, so might as well wait a day.
