Apache Rewrite Rule was created by fendermb4
Is anyone who is savvy with rewrite rules able to come up with one so that we aren't returning so many 404's to the search engines?

I upgraded to Kunena a couple days ago, and my logs are just full of 404's being returned to the bots.

Rewrite rules is one of our top priorities for 1.0.8. So they will be included into release.

Thanks.

Just in case anyone is looking for a quick temporary fix, this seems to do the trick:
Code:
RewriteRule ^(.+)com_kunena(.+) $1com_kunena$2 [R=301,NC,L]

Thanks to this thread:

It might not be the best way, but it seems to be a good band aid until 1.0.8 is released with proper rules.

Nice work however I had a problem with it, maybe because I have joomla in a subdirectory.
After the following change to the path it seems to work ok.
YOUR SUBDIRECTORY GOES HERE/component/
Code:
RewriteRule ^(.+)com_kunena(.+)$ /YOUR SUBDIRECTORY GOES HERE/component/$1com_kunena$2 [R=301,L]

Note: This is with standard Joomla SEF enabled on joomla 1.0+.

Hope this helps until Kunena 1.0.8 is released. :)

I had this working on another script and under different parameters after a lot of trial and error, but I am having trouble getting my SMF to Kunena to work. Note, I am also in a sub-directory (/powersports/)

Since I was using OpenSEF, I have two different URLs I was working with, being that certain links would cause OpenSEF to jump from the Joomla default SEF URL to rather than OpenSEF URL. At the very least, though, I would like to get something working before I finish the migration from Joomla 1.0 to Joomla 1.5 along with a migration from SMF to Kunea.

Instead of continuing with what I have so far and instead using your rewrite rule as a basis, do you believe these suggestions would work? It seems the default Joomla SEF is an easy fix, but the OpenSEF URLs have been giving me a hard time. Thanks.

Did this occur or do we need still add a rule to our .htaccess file?

If so which one to redirect fireboard to kunena?

I guess i will have to do a find and replace in my database as well for all the links written in my forum so they now point to kunena?
still wish that i can write my forum signature through a jomsocial plugin and do it from my jomsocial profile :(
