Is your Xenforo installation in a directory called /xenforo? I notice you have the RewriteBase uncommented and pointing there.

Hi Tracy,

It's installed in the root. Should I change it to public_html?

I don't see any of the default XenForo .htaccess in there at all actually.

Hi Mike,

I've tried adding the default .htaccess but get Internal Server Error

Code:
#    Mod_security can interfere with uploading of content such as attachments. If you
#    cannot attach files, remove the "#" from the lines below.
