So I went ahead and tested the code in my second post. Everything works the same but when ever I try to access a link like: http://www.mysite.com/manga/Naruto/001.5/ I still get a 404 any advice to point me in the direction so I can figure this out would be extremely helpful! The trouble it would cause to "simply" rename the folders so I don't have .5 would take weeks..

cant edit my post.. for the part where I want to "change ([0-9]+) to ([^/.]+)" I mean like this: Options +FollowSymlinks RewriteEngine on RewriteBase /manga/ RewriteRule ^mangas/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/$ - [F,L] RewriteRule ^mangas/([^/]+)/$ - [F,L] RewriteRule ^mangas(/?)$ - [F,L] RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)/([^/.]+)/([^/.]+)(/?)$ index.php?manga=$1&chapter=$2&page=$3 [L] <<< note the change on this line from the original RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)/([^/.]+)(/?)$ index.php?manga=$1&chapter=$2 [L] RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)(/?)$ index.php?manga=$1 [L]

So my problem is probably simple I just don't understand htaccess very well. Here's the original working rewrite Options +FollowSymlinks RewriteEngine on RewriteBase /manga/ RewriteRule ^mangas/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/$ - [F,L] RewriteRule ^mangas/([^/]+)/$ - [F,L] RewriteRule ^mangas(/?)$ - [F,L] RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)/([^/.]+)/([0-9]+)(/?)$ index.php?manga=$1&chapter=$2&page=$3 [L] RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)/([^/.]+)(/?)$ index.php?manga=$1&chapter=$2 [L] RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)(/?)$ index.php?manga=$1 [L] Note the "mangas" folder is where the chapters are (Root/manga/mangas/Naruto/) resulting in: http://www.mysite.com/manga/ http://www.mysite.com/manga/Naruto http://www.mysite.com/manga/Naruto/001/ http://www.mysite.com/manga/Naruto/001/2 (page 2) now what I have run into is some chapters have 001.5 http://www.mysite.com/manga/Naruto/001.5/ That gives me a 404 on my server. I want to either change the whole rewrite or add the option for this variant. I already tried this below. and it does not work. Original RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)/([^/.]+)/([0-9]+)(/?)$ index.php?manga=$1&chapter=$2&page=$3 [L] Mine RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)/([^/.]+)/([0-9]+).([0-9])(/?)$ index.php?manga=$1&chapter=$2&page=$3 [L] taking note to this .............................................^^^^ I also tried that with the plus ([0-9]+) and still did not work and I did not replace the original line. I added my line right below. Now for the ([0-9]+) part. I might have some mangas (later on) that might have 001.a. Would it b possible to just change ([0-9]+) to ([^/.]+) then that way I could just skip the whole "adding .5 .a" and just grab all the of chars between the / / or would that cause the whole rewrite to fall apart? I figured I would ask that before I try it. Hope that all made sense. getting tired after working on the site all day >.< would be thankful for any advice on the subject Thanks!
