Wordpress is installed in the root directory, Phpbb is installed in the forum directory. I *do not* want to integrate the two. The problem is when I try to access domainname.com/forum - I get a 404 error message. Wordpress seems to take over everything. (The forum itself installed fine. No problems there. Wordpress works fine too.) Wordpress htaccess code: # BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPress I tried this for the forum, put it in the root htaccess file as well as the forum root, but no luck. #forum <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /forum/ RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /forum/index\.php\ HTTP/ RewriteRule ^index\.php$ <a href="http://domainname.com/forum/" rel="nofollow">http://domainname.com/forum/</a> [R=301,L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /forum/index.php [L] </IfModule> #End forum Does anyone have any ideas of what I can try in my htaccess file? Everything I've searched for on Google or this site talks about integrating WP and Phpbb and is no help. Thank you.
