Brendon Koz Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I've manually typed in the URL to a specific sub-forum on these boards that I remembered the URL by heart. If anyone's as silly as me, or uses bookmarks to get to a specific sub-forum, they'd be greeted by the main index of the forum because of the small oversight. The following URI: http://forums.invisionpower.com/?showforum=178 ...Becomes: http://forums.invisionpower.com/?forum/178-community-forums/ ...but it needs to be: http://forums.invisionpower.com/forum/178-community-forums/ Notice the extra question mark. To be fair, I cheated and removed "index.php" from the original URI, and when it is restored to the URI, it works fine. Therefore, I'm not entirely sure if this is worth fixing or not (but should be a simple REGEX change). I figured I'd post about it regardless.

bfarber Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 You should post bugs in the bug tracker to be sure they're not overlooked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Matt Posted February 25, 2009 Management Share Posted February 25, 2009 Not fixable. As you didn't specify an input file, the mod_rewrite code decides that you want it to figure it out. Could add another rule to mod_rewrite I suppose, but it's not something that IP.Board can 'fix'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brendon Koz Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 As I have not yet installed my own purchased board yet...is there ever an instance that the originating file being called is not the index.php file, when being called from the root folder? Granted, add-ons may make use of separate files, so I suppose that really can't be judged completely unless there are conventions that must be followed. Thanks, guys!
