Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted October 10, 20195 yr I just switched to Invision from VB5.5 and I need some help with the mod rewrite. I've installed Invision in /forums/ while VB was (and still is) installed at the root / <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> Options -MultiViews RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /forums/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule \.(js|css|jpeg|jpg|gif|png|ico|map)(\?|$) /forums/404error.php [L,NC] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /forums/index.php [L] </IfModule> This is the .htaccess that Invision gave me. But I think it would only work if VB5 was also in /forums/ Please help me adjust this accordingly. Thanks
