index.php

[DADOCTOR]

Hello,

I want to remove the index.php from my main page URL,
I am sure I can do it somehow but I just want to make sure it wont change anything if I do it?

Thanks
Ryan

You can change the URL at Admin CP => vBa CMPS => Default Settings => Main Options => CMPS URL

It is for my Link Directory,
but it is the same path I think.

Thanks Brian, and I take it that it will not effect my indexed urls?

I cant find how to do this in my link directory settings?
was the answer for CMPS?

Sorry, I must not have paid attention to what forum I was posting in.
index.php is coded into some of the templates and I belive at least one file, so it's not going to be quite as easy to remove that from your URLs. If you're doing this for SEO reasons then it would probably be best just to make sure any links are pointing to "/links/index.php".

Brian would you be able to let me know how this is done? I think I know how to, I just want to make sure I do it the right way.

Thanks

There shouldn't really be anything you would need to do... As long as your 'Links Home URL' option is set to 'http://yoursite.com/links' then the URL should be correct and "/index.php" should already be added to the end of any links.

[DADOCTOR]

I do have it set like that,
but should it be displayed in the browser url
without the index.php?

[Brian]

It should always have index.php at the end as far as I'm aware unless you've added a custom link somewhere that does not include index.php.

I thought it would have been easy to remove the index.php,
like how I removed the index.php from my forum?
I think I used vbseo to change it on my forum?
