Queryless URL's - how do they work?

(1/4) > >>

Curbow 5:
Common sense dictates they should use Apache's mod_rewrite. I found all the querystring rewriting stuff in Querystring.php, but I can't seem to find any reference to a .htaccess file or the RewriteEngine anywhere...

How does this work in SMF? ???

Skoen:
You can set urls to be queryless in your admin panel -> in the Mod Settings -> just below the Moderator log setting. Activate it, hit Save and the forum should have queryless urls.

Curbow 5:
LOL I'm sorry, I must've not been clear. I know how to activate the queryless URL's; I was asking how they work technically: what happens codewise when I hit that checkbox and save.

Thanks for helping though!  ;)

Apache, in most configurations, will send:

index.php/some/stuff

To index.php.

Curbow 5:
i see... so there's no .htaccess with rewriting rules?
also, which configuration specifically is needed?

thanks!
