I'm talking about the preset rewrite rules that vbseo has setup.. There should be a few sites, and vBulletinSetup is one of them.

Hi Brandon,

I have a few forums ( all vBSEO) in a dedi box. Is it possible for me to remove all those htaccess files and add a single entry in the httpd.conf ?

You should only have 1 .htaccess file, and yes its possible to add its contents into httpd.conf I beleive

<set up directory directives inside the httpd.conf file and add the htaccess directives per directory path there.
Actually it will be faster than .htaccess. Just make sure you don't forget to update the conf after script updates. And yes, restart apache after conf update.

maybe I should be doing this on vbsetup, and for sure on the crowdgather network since ATM we have 8 forums all running vbseo.

I believe directory directives in httpd.conf are quicker then .htaccess as it's all loaded in on startup (but don't take my word for it)

It's also possible to split up into seperate files and then include them all into httpd.conf

Well its obvious.
httpd.conf is compiled once at server restart unlike the .htaccess which evaluated at each request to the page.

Unfortunatly i couldn't install vBSEO because i done have a mod_rewrite installed on my server and my host is still to set it up,he which might not happen for months yet because he says its a lot of work.

Is there possibly a way round that?
