Rewriting forum threads


hookway

Recommended Posts

Hi    Is it possible to rewrite the URL for forums threads that appear?  For example, can forum/xyz123 become forum/topic1/thread1 ?  If so, is such a rewriting “stable” (or can it be easily changed somehow).  I understand that the reference after the domain name is similar to folders on a desktop, does rewriting the forum threads affect the location of the data in anyway?  Any help with this is appreciated.

Yeah, like basically...what htacces rewrite rules can do is if someone types in:

 

forum/reading/how-to-read

 

the htaccess file will take the url, and it will be processed a file you specify, such as:

 

forum.php?sub=reading&id=456

 

Take a look here. That'll give you the best answers :)
