I have an EE installation in my root folder, and IP.Board in a subdirectory /forum/.

I’m using .htaccess mod_rewrite to remove index.php from my EE site but how do I do to remove index.php from my IP.Board installation as well? So I can use the search-friendly-url’s option.

Anyone had any experience in this? Any help would be appriciated. Thanks.

I’ll just go ahead and answer my own question since a pal of mine solved it 😊

1. Use the regular .htaccess file in wwwroot for EE
2. Make another .htaccess file in your ipboard subdirectory and fill it with this:
```
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /forum/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /forum/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
```
