new install no forum

Please help i have tried install dolphin 7 on several servers and forum  just gives me 404.

What am i doing wrong.

Before we continue down the troubleshooting rabbit hole... Did you install the module first?

If you did install the module, make sure there's a .htaccess file in the root directory of the installation.

I insatalled all modules including ocra

Is there a .htaccess file in the root directory of the installation? It would also help if you told me what web server you are using.

using https://supremecenter100.com

and no .htaccess file

I meant your web server, not the hosting provider. Moving on.

That means the .htaccess file wasn't uploaded. You need to upload this file to have rewritten ("clean") URLs working.

Thanks mabe it wont work then i had to delete.htaccess files otherwise most things dont work images ext

Everything else works and urls loo like this

exept forum

You need the .htaccess files for both rewritten URLs, and security purposes. You might be able to get away with disabling the permalinks under Administration > Settings > Permalinks.

Thanks already tried that

I see. I don't recall the forums having an option to disable permalinks, so unless someone has a workaround, you're probably going to be out of luck.

Thanks for your help anyway.

Submitted a ticket to my hosting provider .The joke is they have a outoinstaller under thier apps to install dolphin guess no one actualy tried it

Thanks sorted

had to put an # in front off all options in .htaccess files

 so you commented out all directives on the htaccess file, whats the purpose of having the file if all directives are commented out?
