Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted January 6, 20223 yr Hello, I have installed my forum in a directory (forum) at the root of my wordpress site, the installation went well, the admin works fine, but ... ... The forum opens, and as soon as I click on a link, a subject, a forum, or that I try to connect, it sends me to the wordpress error page with the correct url, for example: https://ctoulon.com/forum/2-a-test-forum/ ??? I had already had this bug, some time ago, but I have a blackout, if anyone remembers ?! Maybe add something to the .htaccess file ??? Thanks

January 6, 20223 yr Community Expert Would need to make sure your WordPress .htacccess doesn’t interfere with your Invision Community installation. It sounds like WordPress is redirecting away from your forum directory.

January 6, 20223 yr Solution Do you have the appropriate htaccess files in both directories? You should make sure you download the .htaccess file from your ACP > System > Search Engine Optimization > Rewrite URL's - you can download the file from the description. Once you download that make sure place it in your forum directory, and not in the root of the site (that should still contain your .htaccess file from WordPress).

It's good it works, the .htaccess file was missing thank you all for your precious help, I forgot to add it ☺️
