Hello im trying to use this along with the C-Logic SEO mod but i can't view the forum properly.
The link shows this if i hover over it:
/forum/forumdisplay.php/computer-os-9.html

but when clicked it goes to:
/forum/forumdisplay.php/-.html?c=9

here is my .htaccess im using wordpress in the root dir with some rewrite rules as well.

Code:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

#Start VB
RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9_\-]*-(f|all)[0-9]+(p[0-9]+|/index[0-9]*)?\.html)$ forumdisplay.php/$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9_\-]*-(t|p)[0-9]+(p[0-9]+|/index[0-9]*)?\.html)$ showthread.php/$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(index\.php|\.css) [NC]

Any mod rewrite ideas as to why this isnt displaying?
