XF 1.2 XenForo in temporary server directory

[BassMan]

Thank you for links and your time.

For now I need only one more information:

Btw, can you tell me what to do after imports and redirects - what to configure when moving site to forum folder?

 

[Jeremy]

The redirects will require .htaccess and can be specific to your install. The community will be more than willing to help you when you are ready.

Ok, I'm done editing, I've imported content from phpBB with no problems.

Now I want to move the forum from my temporary folder to my subdomain called forum where the phpBB board is now (ok, I'll move that board first!).

 

[Paul B]

Archive the phpBB installation.

Move the XenForo installation.

Update the Board URL in the ACP to reflect the new path.

 

[BassMan]

Great! Working!

But how can I remove word forums and threads in URL after my domain?

Example:

Now it shows forum.mysite.com/forums/.....

I want forum.mysite.com/.....

 

[Paul B]

You can't remove routes, only change them using route filters.

 

[BassMan]

Ok, and how to rename for example:

forum.mysite.com/members/

How to change word members to something else?

 

[Jeremy]

Route Filters in the ACP.

Hi!

I've added this code to my .htaccess before line </IfModule>, but it is not redirecting.

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (^|&)t=([0-9]+)(&|$) [NC]
RewriteRule ^viewtopic\.php$ /threads/%2? [L,R=301,NC]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} f=(\d+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(viewforum\.php|viewtopic\.php)$ /forums/%1? [L,R=301,NC]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (^|&)p=([0-9]+)(&|$) [NC]
RewriteRule ^viewtopic\.php$ /posts/%2? [L,R=301,NC]

Well, I hope I understand the redirecting right. When I click on a link in search engine it needs to redirect me to the new board?

@mladiucitelj, I've moved your support posts from pre-sales to the installation forums.

@mladiucitelj, I've moved your support posts from pre-sales to the installation forums.

Ok, sorry if I posted too much questions in this thread...

 

[Jeremy]

Not a problem, this is just more appropriate place for the discussion (the post was more of an informative "I've moved it" versus a disciplinary comment).
