links to old forum posts...

I posted this in moots thread in the Aircraft and Vehicles section, but figured I'd post here in case an admin didn't read that...  anyhoo...

nice work, moot. Is there a HiTech admin around who has access to the apache config for http://www.hitechcreations.com? The following rewrite rule will make those old links work:

   
RedirectMatch ^/forums/(.*) [url]http://forums.hitechcreations.com/forums/[/url]$1




That needs to be put in the vhost container for http://www.hitechcreations.com, and will make it intercept requests to /forums and redirect them to the correct URL. I haven't tested that, of course, but it should accomodate both forum and post viewing. Alternately, to only address post viewing use this:

   
RedirectMatch ^/forums/showthread.php(.*) [url]http://forums.hitechcreations.com/forums/showthread.php[/url]$1
