    I’m using EE v.2.3.1 and the Discussion Forum Module v.3.1.7 and Structure 3.1.3. When I fill out the new topic form in the discussion boards, it reloads the page and clears all the form fields without submitting a new topic. There are no errors when I turn on debugging. My .htaccess file contains the following code:

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ $1 [R=301,L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1
    
    ## EXPIRES CACHING ##
    <IfModule mod_expires.c>
    ExpiresActive On
    ExpiresByType image/jpg "access 1 year
     
    ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access 1 year"
    ExpiresByType image/gif "access 1 year"
    ExpiresByType image/png "access 1 year"
    ExpiresByType text/css "access 1 month"
    ExpiresByType application/pdf "access 1 month"
    ExpiresByType text/x-javascript "access 1 month"
    ExpiresByType application/x-shockwave-flash "access 1 month"
    ExpiresByType image/x-icon "access 1 year"
    ExpiresDefault "access 2 days"
     
    </IfModule>

    Hey jmulkey,

    I am sorry to hear you are running into this problem.

    Can you please remove the .htaccess file for testing. We only support a specific htaccess file config, but when testing we like to remove it from the equation.

    Thank you

    Renamed the .htaccess file, now I’m getting 404 errors on the subpages.

    I have removed the .htaccess file and added index.php as the site’s index page in the general configuration panel. I am able to make a post in the forum now so the problem must be in my .htaccess.

    Hey jmulkey,

    I think you are right, especially in conjunction with Structure. I would run this past the Structure Developers. Jack and Travis are really good guys.

    Is there anything else I can help you with?

    Cheers,

    I’ll check with the Structure guys on modifying my .htaccess to remove index.php and still work with the forum module. Thanks.
