For my application I’m trying to implement the XenForo forum software into my CakePHP

  • 0

For my application I’m trying to implement the XenForo forum software into my CakePHP site. I’ve installed XenForo in AppName/app/webroot/community and the system itself works as intended. When going to http://localhost/AppName/community however, it redirects me to http://localhost/AppName/app/webroot/community/

Going to http://localhost/AppName/community/ (note the trailing slash) gives me an unmarked up page of the forum with an Error that the page could not be found.

I would like to prevent this from happening, and make XenForo use the URL I’ve supplied. I’ve tried setting the <base> to <base href="http://localhost/AppName/community/" />, but to no success.

The Board URL in the Admin CP of XenForo is also set to http://localhost/AppName/community (with no trailing slash)

If you have a clue how to fix this, that’d be great.

    Didn’t find an exact solution to my issue, but kind of moved around the issue by placing my community folder from /app/webroot/ to the root /. In addition I had to add this line to the .HTACCESS file:
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/community(.*)

    Edit 11-23-2012: I seem to have found the solution I was looking for. I moved my installation back to /app/webroot and set the DocumentRoot in my vhost file accordingly:

    DocumentRoot C:/wamp/www/sitename/app/webroot
