    Hi

    I am completely stuck as to why my EE install after the upgrade to EE 2.5.3 suddenly does not allow any ?ACT anymore eg search (?ACT=2), sending off a contact form or login out (?ACT=10) from the front end.

    All actions get redirected to the homepage.

    No additional modules installed after upgrade.

    my htaccess file includes just a basic redirect

    RewriteEngine On 
    RewriteCond $1 !\.(gif|jpe?g|png)$ [NC]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f 
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d 
    RewriteRule (.*) index.php?$1 [L]

    Cheer

    Hi Christian,

    Can you give the default recommended htaccess a whirl? There are subtle differences between yours and the following

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
            RewriteEngine On
    
            # Removes index.php from ExpressionEngine URLs
            RewriteCond $1 !\.(gif|jpe?g|png)$ [NC]
            RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
            RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
            RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
    </IfModule>

    What extensions or add-ons do you have installed? Anything that would affect the URL like Structure etc?

    Hey Interfacer,

    Just want to make sure that you updated all your Add-Ons.

    Sounds like you might be hitting a 404 and if 404 pages has not been setup, the default is to send folks to the home page.

    Please let me know about those Add-Ons.

    Thank you,
