Scratch that, should work now.

I think getting rid of the forum. address will mean a lot less maintenance headaches, but can we put a "smart" redirector in it's place? Problem is that folks are already linked to the forum. address, i.e. :
http://forum.ecomodder.com/forumdisp...mputer-26.html

If I google for mpguino, none of the links work, and that is a little harsh.

Can I offer you a bit of php that will redirect them to something based on the url?
i.e. redirect to: http://ecomodder.com/forum/opengauge...mputer-26.html

why not just have a www.ecomodder.com/forum setup?

I don't have any php handy, but it would go something like this:

point forum.ecomodder.com* to point to an index.php file that does the following (and or add it to the file not found index):

look at the request headers, figure out the complete url string:
i.e. http://forum.ecomodder.com/forumdisplay.php/opengauge-mpguino-fe-computer-26.html

if the url string starts with "http://forum.ecomodder.com/forumdisplay.php/"
replace "http://forum.ecomodder.com/forumdisplay.php/"  with "http://ecomodder.com/forum/" and leave the rest of the string in place.

Set the location header to the new string.

diesel: try it now.

Ben: I went through all the other red/blue star members and found 4 more who were affected by this but who hadn't said anything yet. Likely a side effect of the vB upgrade.
