| htaccess question before I install
I just downloaded vbseo 3.2.0 RC5. Do I need to edit anything in the htaccess file before uploading it to the forum root folder? My domain name is xlforum.net. I have vbportal installed in a directory directly under the root call vbportal and vbulletin in a directory called forums within the vbportal directory. http://xlforum.net/vbportal/forums |

Hello, default .htaccess file should work without modifications, but it's suggested to apply non-www to www redirect rules as described in [How to] Setup www.yourdomain.com or yourdomain.com (www vs. non-www) - With .htaccess 301 redirects

Thanks. I was concerned because my domain is a .net domain and not .com . I don't have to change the .com to .net? |

You should specify your own domain name in rewrite rules.

Thanks again. So in others words I should uncomment the following two lines. Code: #RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.yourdomain\.com
#RewriteRule (.*) http://www.yourdomain.com/forums/$1 [L,R=301]
Code: RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.xlforum\.net
RewriteRule (.*) http://xlforum.net/vbportal/forums/$1 [L,R=301]
Or should I just leave these lines alone if I do not want to rewrite the domain address? |

If you have forums URL defined as "xlforum.net" in vB admincp options, then you should use "xlforum.net" in both lines. If you have it defined as "www.xlforum.net", use www domain.

You will have to create a separate .htaccess file in root folder, an example is here: rewrite root vba cmps pages

Why do you want to rewrite URLs like "/modules/News/index.php"? They seem to be ok as is (without ?xx=aaa parameters).

I mean that it is not required to rewrite "modules/XXXX/index.php" URL. If you have other URLs to rewrite, that may be useful.
