Getting rid of /forums/ and /topic/ from bbPress permalinks
-
I’d like to remove “forums” and “topics” from bbPress permalinks.
This looks ugly:
http://domain.com/forums/forum/name-of-forum/
http://domain.com/forums/topic/title-of-topic/
Therefore I want this:
http://domain.com/forum/name-of-forum/title-of-topic
Therefore I downloaded a plugin and followed the steps described on this website:
Unfortunately I don’t get it work. I think there are some mod rewrites missing. Unfortunately I am not a mod rewrite expert. Is there anybody who could help me?
Thats the htaccess code which works with the ugly url:
# BEGIN bbPress
Options -MultiViews
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /forum/
RewriteRule ^page/([0-9]+)/?$ /forum/index.php?page=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^forum/([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ /forum/forum.php?id=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^topic/([^/]+)/?$ /forum/topic.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^topic/?$ /forum/ [R=302,L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^.*$ /forum/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END bbPress
Thats the htaccess code which should make pretty urls:
# BEGIN bbPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /forum/
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteRule ^tags/([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ tags.php?tag=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^tags/([^/]+)/?$ tags.php?tag=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^tags/?$ tags.php [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^profile/([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ profile.php?id=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^profile/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ profile.php?id=$1&tab=$2 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^profile/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ profile.php?id=$1&tab=$2&page=$3 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^profile/([^/]+)/?$ profile.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^view/([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ view.php?view=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^view/([^/]+)/?$ view.php?view=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^rss/?$ rss.php [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^rss/forum/([^/]+)/?$ rss.php?forum=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^rss/topic/([^/]+)/?$ rss.php?topic=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^rss/tags/([^/]+)/?$ rss.php?tag=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^rss/profile/([^/]+)/?$ rss.php?profile=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^page/([0-9]+)/?$ ?page=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ topic.php?id=$2&page=$3 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ topic.php?id=$2 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ forum.php?id=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?$ forum.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]
</IfModule>
# END bbPress
Whats missing in the second htaccess code? It must be something with “page”, “forum” or “topic”.
