Dear all,

1. I had an existing forum at /forum while one vb4
2. Now I moved to root domain with IPB 
3. As IPB takes 'forums' by default, the earlier link like: website.com/forum/text-text.html now are website.com/forums/text-text.html
4. Now I want all the earlier URL with website.com/forum-text-text.html to point to website.com/forums-text-text.html

Any help will be appreciated.

 

Hi,

as far as I know you have two methods to redirect URLs: 
1. The settings System > Advanced Configuration > Friendly URLs
2. Using .htaccess redirects or rewrites

Your description is a bit confusing, you write (3.) website.com/forum/text-abc.html now are pointing to website.com/forums/text-abc.html?
Is this on stock IPB? I am asking because this is not the case on my IPB.
Second, you write (4.) that you want to rewrite other URLs referring to website.com/forum-text-abc.html without the /forum-part?
Are those different URLs you are talking about?

Regards

The requirement is that all content URL should point from forum to forums 

Can you point us to your Forum URL?

It doesn't sound complicated...
