Hello, i have a forum made by mybb and i found out that mybb google seo plugin seo url works well only when he domain is the rot / public_html domain but how can i use htaccess only to make my forumthread.php?fid=1 and showthread.php?tid=1 to be /general-discussion and /looks-how-good-we-have-been?



Any code for htaccess please?
I think it would be easier to fix your setup to allow Google SEO to work on sub directory structure.

FIXEEEEEEDDDDDDDDDD:- In a post via https://community.mybb.com/thread-218089...pid1306346, am able to solve my problem by using the right folder for the RewriteBase which is

# Some hosts need a RewriteBase specification.
RewriteBase /Example.com/

where example is my domain url folder instead of using the root folder.
I'm glad you found a solution for your issue.
