Xenforo working perfectly in subdirectory until installed Wordpress

[tintmob]

I'm loving Xenforo! (and spent a good penny) But, I just installed wordpress (Avada theme) to run most of my site. Since, when returning to forum it looks fine until a forum/catagory is chosen then it returns a 404.

Please help!

Maybe due to Wordpress's htaccess

I don't know how to change the .htaccess file for wp. Xenforo, NP. Where should I look? What should I change?

It's located in the root directory. You can open it in any basic text editor (such as Notepad).

I really don't know much about htaccess but this might work:

After RewriteEngine on, add

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} "/yourxenforofolder/"
  RewriteRule (.*) $1 [L]

If you need help with your XenForo installation you should be posting in the Support forums.

http://xenforo.com/community/forums/troubleshooting-and-problems.24/

If you do not have permission you need to associate your username in the customer area for your account.

I don't see this as a XenForo bug..

You do realise that site you are linking to is a pirate site?

 

[tintmob]

No clue. Sorry. Should I be worried about the fix?

I was just searching for an answer to my problem.

I haven't clicked the URL so not sure what the thread is about but in general it's recommended to not visit/use pirate sites.

What is a pirate site? What should I be looking for? How can I tell?

I'm fairly new at this.

A site running without having paid for a license. The most noticeable thing is the copyright being modified or removed from the footer.

If a site (as the one you've linked to) allows downloads of XenForo, it is a site to be avoided.
