Eudemon Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 If I move IPB to /community How do I map the other IPB apps to something like: domain.com/blog/ instead of domain.com/community/blog/ currently I think htaccess is one way, but is there anything natively supported by IPB? --- btw anyone who has latest version, does it give you option to auto get notified on posts you made or reply to.

Meddysong Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Assuming you're using 4.x, there's no need to move anything. Just change the default app to one of the other ones (ACP > System > Applications > click a star), which will put your forums at domain.com/forums. Then go to System > Advanced Configuration > Friendly URLs and edit the ones which contain forums so that they contain community instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eudemon Posted October 18, 2017 Author Share Posted October 18, 2017 I am talking about actually moving the root directory for IPB installation because I want to have custom script there as my landing system. so moving IPB in /community and making sure other apps follow same naming schema Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optic14 Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Hi @Eudemon To my knowledge you can do this with Pages as your default app - I don't know if it would work for the other apps as the default: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You set one default app and all others will have an URL slug added, like in your example: /community/blog You can mess with the URL setup in the advanced settings, but I would only do that if you absolutely have to.

Jim M Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Unfortunately, it is not supported to have different applications live in different directories. We would recommend placing the suite in the root and setting Pages as the default app (if this is desired outcome) then the subsequent applications will follow with their proper FURL (e.g. yourdomain.com/forums, yourdomain.com/blogs, yourdomain.com/gallery, etc...)

Joy Rex Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 If all @Eudemon cares about is URL aesthetics, could MOD_REWRITE or similar achieve the desired effect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eudemon Posted November 7, 2017 Author Share Posted November 7, 2017 it's an user generated custom php system so no way to setup each page one by one, with links like mydomain.com/tag/something, mydomain.com/category/something, mydomain.com/user/something if i put index.php in page app, wonder what can potentially break or just have to test and find out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
