Remove Redirect to /content

[Steve Machol]

Then remove that. The purpose of the htaccess file is to redirect, which I am saying is the issue.

[David Karol]

And as I stated, there is nothing in vB that would do this. This is from either an htaccess redirect or another modification you installed. Sorry if that was not clear.

The htaccess I used is what was provided in the do_not_upload folder for the mod_rewrite URLs, which were turned on from the Admin CP.

There is no 'content' directory in vB. That was added manually. http://www.soundforums.net/content

I realize there is no actual 'content' directory, however I never added that on my own anywhere. Even with all addons disabled, "/content" is being added to the URL. That is using only the files provided in the vBulletin 4.0 release.

That is my point. You specifically did this. That is not a default configuration. You need to undo whatever changes you made to make that happen.

Steve,

I didn't do anything special to install the suite to /. I uploaded the files to that directory and ran the installation from there. To move forums to /live, I added a folder called /live, and filled it with the files provided in the "forum" and "rewrite/forum" sections of the do_not_upload folder.

This occurs when using the mod_rewrites for friendly URLs, I wanted the same thing for my site.

In Settings -> Content management,
Point CMS default to index.php set to Yes.

However, there is a bug in which pagination causes an infinite loop:

I had a workaround using rewrites but the Facebook integration stopped working, so I had to turn off pagination or go back to /content/ for the index.

That seems to be the same issue I'm having.

Steve,
That is the directory I installed the suite to.

Steve,

That is the directory I installed the suite to. I just have the "forum component URL" set to live. Even if I try setting the control to show up in a subdirectory, I still get "content/" in the address bar before any of the pages.



Wherever the CMS is located, "content" is added after it's directory.

[Steve Machol]

Yes, I know. You need to follow the instructions I provided to have the CMS show in a different directory.

[David Karol]

That is because of a modification you made since your forums are installed here: http://www.soundforums.net/live/forum.php

Try these instructions:

Steve,

The forums are properly working in that directory. Would I need to upload the contents of the cms folder in do_not_upload to the root directory? Would that .htaccess need to go there as well?

Thanks,

David Karol

On our homepage (http://www.site.net), the address bar shows

http://www.site.net/content

Is there a way to make the CMS show up in the main directory, without "/content" being in front of the pages?

I just installed a wiki to http://www.site.net/wiki, however, I can't access that directory from the web browser, it also redirects to /content. The .htaccess I am using is from the provided do_not_upload over, as we switched to mod_rewrite URLs for SEO.

Thanks
