.htaccess issue

Got a bit of a problem -- my server people 1&1 have changed something thier end and now VBseo will no longer work . Whilst Im waiting for them to get back to me was wondering if any of you bright sparks have and ideas.

Basics are with plugin on it will not work with www. but with out the www. the site works fine. So this must be something to do with the rewrite.

Any ideas if I could add something to the .htaccess file to get round this ?

#RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.yourdomain\.com
#RewriteRule (.*) http://www.yourdomain.com/forums/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(admincp/|modcp/|chat|cron)
Options +Indexes
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^go-(.*)-(.*).html$ index.php?go=$1&id=$2 [L,NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)-(.*)-(.*).html$ index.php?go=$2&id=$3 [L,NC]
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)/[^/]+/([0-9]+)/$ index.php?go=subcat&id=$1&pageNum_pages=$2 [L,NC]
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)/.*$ index.php?go=subcat&id=$1 [L,NC]

Thanks 4 your time

your rules are in the wrong order...


RewriteEngine on should be first
then options +indexes (and frankly, i'd recommend options -indexes)

then your rules.


And in your rules, you don't have the main vbseo rule...

I'd sugest starting from the default htaccess file included in the download package, and adding your 4 custom redirects just before the vbseo_url directive in the stock htaccess file

Wiered have just checked and replaced the .thaccess and its all working ! Why did my host change the .htaccess

Any how thanks and massive relief as did not want a years worth of urls in google turning to a waste of time

Thanks again
