Question .htaccess in forum root w/ exisiting .htaccess?

I'm sure this is a newb question. I did a search without result.

My forums root is ww2f.com (as opposed to ww2f.com/forum/) and the install instructs me to install the .htaccess file into my forum root, but I already have an .htaccess file there.

What is the workaround here?

Hello,

in most cases you can simply append vBSEO's .htaccess to existing one. What is your current .htaccess contents?

Thumbs up Current .htaccess file

Thanks Oleg!

Here is my current .htacces file

Code:
# -FrontPage-

IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} .*jpg$|.*jpeg$|.*gif$|.*png$|.*bmp$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^[http|nttp].*$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !ww2n\.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !ww2\.org [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !ww2f\.com [NC]
RewriteRule \.(gif|jpe?g|png)$ http://ww2f.com/images/leech.jpe [NC,L]

<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Limit>
AuthName www.ww2f.com
AuthUserFile /XXX/public_html/_vti_pvt/XXX
AuthGroupFile /XXX/public_html/_vti_pvt/XXX
I had jut figured out that I need to combine the files. Right now I forsee a couple problems, the double
Code:
RewriteEngine On
line and the double
Code:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}
sections.

I'm assuming that these might confict, any guidance is appreciated Oleg!

You can skip the second "RewriteEngine on" line and just insert the contents of vBSEO's .htaccess right before this line:
Code:
<Limit GET POST>

Great stuff Oleg, you kick so much ass!

I edited .htaccess file, uploaded, and it immediately broke some image links in my forums. Once I imported the vBSEO package it worked like a charm.

I must say that I'm a complete newb about teh internets, but this install was certainly doable, even for me.

Now I'm going to closely monitor my activity and see how busy things get.
