Hi, Wondering if anyone can look over my file and tell me if it's doing what it is suppose to. It's for my forum also in http://example.com/forum what is also happening is I get a 301 redirect from running header server test for /forum. So I am not confident it's right and thought I better get help as in the Google Webmaster tools it's throwing lots of errors. I will give a few examples of urls and what I need them to do then the htaccess file. The numbers are just examples I need anything that comes in from any number (ex. FORUM_ID=2 or FORUM_ID=15) same goes with TOPIC_ID and so on. <snip>. Thanks!
