MyBB Community Forums

Hey so I'm kind of new to MyBB as I've been using PHPBB for a while, but I have a Garry's Mod server and on the website there is a ban appeals section. I was wondering if there was a way to make something like http://iodinegaming.com/appeal to redirect to http://iodinegaming.com/forumdisplay.php?fid=6.

If so, what do I need and where do I put it?

in the .htaccess file you can use rewrite rule like below

RewriteRule ^appeal forumdisplay.php?fid=6 [L,QSA]

I don't see an .htaccess file, I see htaccess.txt

I saw a post http://community.mybb.com/thread-99435.html and it says I can rename the htaccess.txt file, is that right?

you can create a new file and name it as .htaccess

Well it worked, thanks for the help

Ok... so I did that and I added them in and I was going to add a couple new things but now I can't find the .htaccess file.. it's not in my root.

So FileZilla had an option to filter out files that started with "." and I removed that but the .htaccess file is still not showing, how do I get to it?
