I made a thread earlier about guests not being able to view my forums. Well, It seems that they can't view it because they aren't actually there.
When I click on a section, it re-directs me to my host site?
I don't know what the problem is..

You can sign in with this account, so you can get a better look around:
username: test
password: test123
looks like you have not adjusted your htaccess.
find htaccess.txt in your forum root and then rename it to .htaccess (dot first, nothing in front)
That didn't make a difference
oops, sorry, you are using Google SEO, did you make/aplpy the htaccess changes it requires? You can do that from the plugins page in the ACP under the Google SEO listing
I added this to the htaccess.txt file:
Add to .htaccess:
RewriteEngine on
# Some hosts require RewriteBase to make RewriteRules work.
RewriteBase /
# Google SEO workaround for search.php highlights:
# Make this rule the first rewrite rule in your .htaccess!
RewriteRule ^([^&]*)&(.*)$ http://sportsforum.comli.com/$1?$2 [L,QSA,R=301]
# Google SEO 404:
ErrorDocument 404 /misc.php?google_seo_error=404
# Google SEO Sitemap:
RewriteRule ^sitemap-([^./]+)\.xml$ misc.php?google_seo_sitemap=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
# Google SEO URL Forums:
RewriteRule ^Forum-([^./]+)$ forumdisplay.php?google_seo_forum=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
# Google SEO URL Threads:
RewriteRule ^Thread-([^./]+)$ showthread.php?google_seo_thread=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
# Google SEO URL Announcements:
RewriteRule ^Announcement-([^./]+)$ announcements.php?google_seo_announcement=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
# Google SEO URL Users:
RewriteRule ^User-([^./]+)$ member.php?action=profile&google_seo_user=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
# Google SEO URL Calendars:
RewriteRule ^Calendar-([^./]+)$ calendar.php?google_seo_calendar=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
# Google SEO URL Events:
RewriteRule ^Event-([^./]+)$ calendar.php?action=event&google_seo_event=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
you need to rename it from
htaccess.txt
to
.htaccess
Nope, still didn't make a difference
in your FTP program, go to your root web folder (www or public_html) where you have your index.php and forumdisaply.php files, and see if you can see a file called .htaccess. You may need to enable "show hidden files"
edit that file and paste the contents here.
I found the problem. The Google SEO plugin was redirecting everything to my hosts website..
I had to uninstall it. I'll eggplant about with that some other time.
Thanks for the help anyway though!
