Hi Guys.
So i think i have a problem with my .htaccess or at least i think so.
Here's the story.
I've made a website for my mums little charity music thing shes putting on which can be found here. http://www.bradfordbarnstorm.org.uk . ive done my best to build it using wordpress and i think it all works rather well. The problem arises in that im trying to put on a forum so the community can talk. I've installed using the providers install system and its the same type of forum as this one. phpBB i believe its called, installed to /forum. How ever when i try and go to it via link or direct input it automatically reverts to the main wp page. I rang up the support line and some man told me to adjust the htaccess and told me what to put in it. He gave me this
From what i understand its saying if some one types in the forum extension it allows them to go it otherwise all other requests are pushed to the /wp/
any help would really be helpful. im losing hair![Smile :) :)](/styles/default/xenforo/vbSmilies/Normal/smile.gif)
