    Forum links just reload main board page

    My bulletin board is my site's homepage. I have a forum called "General", which has a link like this....

    http://www.myforum.com/general/

    However, when you click the link, it justs reload the bulletin board's main page like the homepage does.

    I tested to make sure rewrite works, it sent testpage.html to google.

    Hello Joe,

    I see that your ticket has been responded to. It might take some time to resolve the issue in this case since you cannot provide access to your server, sorry for that and thank you for your patience.

    It is used by optional (but recommended) vBSEO Sitemap Generator add-on.
