Help Required

Ok I have uploaded htaccess.txt file and then renamed it .htaccess.txt as it says in the description.

After looking elsewhere it looks like I need to add my own bits and delete some text (like # here and there) is this right? do I need to add my own urls?

Also as I have a front page on my site that then has a link to my forum what do i go with, frontpage or forum?

I have tried playing around with this and also submitted a ticket but no reply as of yet and as I keep getting further (now stuck) I thought it would be best to post here.

I have now switched it off because when I was playing around with it when a thread was clicked it gave a 404 error page.

Any advice guys? Also when I get this working is there anyone on here who can setup the options for me for a few £/$ on msn? As I don't fully understand it.

Thanks

You need to rename htaccess.txt to just .htaccess

See if that won't correct some of your 404 issues.

Thanks mate.

Figured out I needed to do what you said PLUS add a (dot) . before it.

Most of them now load but some load as a blank page, here check it out?

This is my htaccess file but im confused as to whether I add my front page or my forum page url?

Just noticed that all my pages open apart from the new members threads (has a mod) and my arcade http://www.chatfootballforum.com/arcade.php

Any ideas? Can anyone help me set it up in CP I will pay for your time.

I'm getting "The administrator has disabled viewing of the arcade for your member group" error on your arcade page, what is the issue you get?
