Hi all,

where do I find the mod_rewrite tool that make phpbb 3.0 forums give these urls:

general-discussion/
general-discussion/new-comps-are-now-t89853.html

I am desperately looking for this ;-)

It is based off of this:

http://www.phpbb-seo.com/boards/advance ... t1219.html

I had to do a good deal of customizing to integrate it into ozzu since ozzu has multiple languages such as:

http://www.ozzu.com/es/debate-general/nueva-comps-hasta-ahora-t89853.html

and

http://www.ozzu.com/de/allgemeine-diskussion/neu-sind-jetzt-comps-t89853.html

But I believe that is all you wanted anyway :)

Thanks for that mod Bigwebmaster.

The problem with it, the .htaccess doesn't work for me... I get 500 Internal Server Error when I try to use it and it doesn't matter how I edit it or what kind of settings/options I use for it.

Any help?

Check your Apache logs Bogey. 5xx errors mean something is wrong with your configuration (in this case, the .htaccess). The log will tell you what happened.

Here is what it tells me

Do you have mod_rewrite enabled?

Sounds like your webhost doesn't have the mod_rewrite compiled with Apache. You will need to contact them and request it.

Yeah, it does. Click on the WAMP icon in your taskbar, go to Apache Modules, and enable it.
