Mod_Rewrite Workaround – Hosting Problems
-
I left my former host because of their site load speed. I tested all, Yahoo seemed the fastest that i can currently afford, so i decided to move to them.
Now i realize after migrating that they don’t have Mod_Rewrite Enabled on their server, so wordpress cannot write to .htaccess and i wrote them and apparently they cannot get that working for me any time soon. Migrating again will be such a pain.
and Buddypress needs mod_rewrite that to work.
i tried to bypass that issue by using /index.php/ before my permalink structure. It works but doesnt work for pages specific to buddypress
which one do you suggest i use?
site load speed is of real concern to me..
so if i enter the address like : http://studentscircle/index.php/activity/ it opens the activity of buddypress without problems. but if use http://studentscircle.net/live/activity ? get a 404 not found.
so i have done an auto redirect for the group directory page, member directory page and activity directory to direct users to a index.php/directory when they enter /directory
but its going to be a lot of pain creating individual directories and redirecting them for all groups and forums. and when users create new forums, it will not redirect because i ll have to do it manually.
so its there a way i can add that all the buddypress pages have the /index.php/ put in front of them automatically. so that when users click on the links..
The painful part is that users cannot currently access their profile.
I really do no want to change hosting..
HELP
