XF 1.2 Rewrite rule help. Change of domain

[woei]

Hi.

I'm wondering how I make the correct rewrite rule for vBulletin 4.2.2. with advanced friendly urls enabled to XenForo.

Example old url:
http://forum.scooterforum.net/forum/showthread.php/203220-Sportstuur-toegelaten

Example new url (domain changed from forum.scooterforum.net to scooterforum.net)
http://scooterforum.net/threads/sportstuur-toegelaten.203220/

What do I need for successful rewriting of the urls? And more important, where do I need to put the .htacces file? Only in the forum.scooterforum.net root right? There would be the only place the rewrite is needed?

Add these rules to the top of the .htaccess file in forum.scooterforum.net/forum:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^showthread\.php/([0-9]+)-.*$ http://scooterforum.net/threads/$1/ [R=301,L]

Thanks. With my rewrite script below I don't need to upload the vb4 rewrite script right?

And is this correct code for rewriting everything that I need for vb 4? threads/posts/forums/attachments/archive/member/ links?

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule archive/index\.php/t-([0-9]+)\.html$ http://scooterforum.net/threads/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} attachmentid=([0-9]+)(&|$)
RewriteRule attachment\.php$ http://scooterforum.net/attachments/%1? [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} f=([0-9]+)(&|$)
RewriteRule forumdisplay\.php$ http://scooterforum.net/forums/%1? [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} u=([0-9]+)(&|$)
RewriteRule member\.php$ http://scooterforum.net/members/%1? [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} t=([0-9]+)(&|$)
RewriteRule printthread\.php$ http://scooterforum.net/threads/%1? [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} p=([0-9]+)(&|$)
RewriteRule showpost\.php$ http://scooterforum.net/posts/%1? [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} t=([0-9]+)(&|$)

Looks good to me. Those rules will handle the default non-friendly URLs (e.g. forumdisplay.php?f=#)
