[Solved] Migrating to New Install...need htaccess Help

patsjv

I'm now (finally!) moving from a Vanilla 1.x install to Vanilla 2.x. I'm wondering whether anyone has a slick htaccess mod_rewrite file that would take the old Vanilla URL structure (www.myforum.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=9869) and sends it to the new URL structure (www.myforum.com/index.php?p=/discussion/9869/. I'm not too good with htaccess, so appreciate any help out there. Thanks!

to the new URL structure (www.myforum.com/index.php?p=/discussion/9869/

Are you sure you want to keep that new Url structure? It should be:

www.myforum.com/discussion/9869/

as far as I know and you don't need to change anything for that...

Thanks, UnderDog. Just needed to turn RewriteUrls to TRUE. Appreciate your help.
