URL Rewrite not 100%

Html33 · #1 10-13-2008, 01:05 PM

Okay, Cheers for looking at this. I hope you can help me

Right, I have a forum and i've spotted that if i have two or more sections called the same thing, for example " Other " which ever link is pressed it goes to the wrong place.

Here is a live example,

This is for the Guild Wars Section
Other - Die Hard Gaming - For all your coding and gaming needs!

____

This is for the Graphics section

Other - Die Hard Gaming - For all your coding and gaming needs!

Notice how they both go to the same url?

here is my .htaccess

Code:

RewriteEngine on
# Comment the following line (add '#' at the beginning)
# to disable mod_rewrite functions.
# Please note: you still need to disable the hack in
# the vBSEO control panel to stop url rewrites.
RewriteEngine On

# Some servers require the Rewritebase directive to be
# enabled (remove '#' at the beginning to activate)
# Please note: when enabled, you must include the path
# to your root vB folder (i.e. RewriteBase /forums/)
#RewriteBase /

#RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.dhgaming\.com
#RewriteRule (.*) http://www.dhgaming.com/$1 [L,R=301]

RewriteRule ^((urllist|sitemap_).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(admincp/|modcp/|cron)
RewriteRule ^((archive/)?(.*\.php(/.*)?)?)$ vbseo.php [L,QSA]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !^(admincp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images)/
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ vbseo.php [L,QSA]

So maybe i need to tell the forum to make it "Dhgaming.com/other*"

* = Number, Changing url.

I dont know, Please help

if you have 2 forums with the same name (sub- or regular) you must include the ID in the structure.

How do i do that?

First, we need to verify you're a customer. You're not currently showing as a vbseo owner.

If you are working on behalf of someone else, have them add you in their userCP as a 'tech team' member.
If you are the owner, you need to have a staff member assign your license to your name.

Hello ,

I cannot find any info for your domain name within our License Database. If you already purchased vBSEO and your license is not activated please send me a PM including your forum adress and payment transaction id so i can investigate further. Otherwise we only support Licensed Users. You are always welcome to purchase a new license and out Support team can asist you immediately with your problems.

Alright, Will do.

I'll try and get him to activate my account soon, I manage the server you see

briansol · #7 10-13-2008, 05:31 PM

have him go here: http://www.vbseo.com/usercp/customer_profile/ and enter your name in the 1 of the 3 blocks at the bottom

but like i said, to fix the issue you need to include the ID in your re-write option, or change the forum name.

To include the ID, scroll to the preset area for the re-write rules.
expand with the + sign to see all options,

then find the rule you wish to use given the examples.

instead of [forum_name] you will probably want to use [forum_id]-[forum_name]
