Without being funny, there IS a warning about using it with Pretty URLs.

And I thought Pretty URLs didn't modify the link to admin to avoid such an issue in the first place.
Holder of controversial views, all of which my own.

i posted about this about three posts before.... you will need to recreate you old .htaccess
try
YOUR.SITE.com/index.php?action=admin;area=pretty
or:

kaib0rg

tried making my .htaccess file just the line you posted, didnt help with the admin page.

using the action=admin;area=pretty sends me to login to my admin area, after entering the password it simply redirects to the pretty url area again.

luismanson

this is my .htaccess, edit RewriteBase / for your needs.... the slash is because the main domain is the forum (not site.com/forum )

The following link should take me to a board called PROFESSIONAL SPORTS but when it's clicked it goes straight to the HOMEPAGE

http://www.suffolksportsforum.co.uk/index.php#c18

How can I change that?

winex - check your server is running apache. if so, drop in phpinfo.php file into the webserver and access the page... then do a find on 'mod_rewrite'. if it's there, then i can't help you, but if it's not there, then you need to enable it.

do this in your_server_folder/apache/conf/httpd.conf

find the mod_rewrite line, and remove the # (hash) at the start of the line... that should do it - i don't think you need to reboot...?
If you have any support questions, feel free to ask - be safe in the knowledge that I won't help because... I know nothing!
