I noticed you have it setup like that here. How do I remove the extra /forum/ that is added to the url? /topic/ to for threads if you don't mind.

You'd have to edit the furl template. I have looked at it, but, haven't edited. The url's I use here are default htaccess method.

 

Let me see if I can find the part that would have to be removed.

This should be simple to do.

 

My furlTemplate.php had this in it:

 

$_SEOTEMPLATES = array(

'showannouncement'     => array( 'app'		     => 'forums',
							 'allowRedirect' => 1,
							 'out'           => array( '#showannouncement=(.+?)((?:&|&)f=(.+?))?(&|$)#i', 'forum-$3/announcement-$1-#{__title__}/$4' ),
					  		 'in'            => array( 'regex'   => "#/forum-(\d+?)?/announcement-(\d+?)-#i",
											 		   'matches' => array( array( 'showannouncement', '$2' ), array( 'f', '$1' ) ) ) ),

'showforum'     => array( 'app'		      => 'forums',
					  'allowRedirect' => 1,
					  'out'           => array( '#showforum=(.+?)(&|$)#i', 'forum/$1-#{__title__}/$2' ),
					  'in'            => array( 'regex'   => "#/forum/(\d+?)-#i",
											    'matches' => array( array( 'showforum', '$1' ) ) ) ),

'showtopic'     => array( 'app'		      => 'forums',
					  'allowRedirect' => 1,
					  'out'           => array( '#showtopic=(.+?)(&|$)#i', 'topic/$1-#{__title__}/$2' ),
					  'in'            => array( 'regex'   => "#/topic/(\d+?)-#i",
										        'matches' => array( array( 'showtopic', '$1' ) ) ) ),

'act=idx'       => array( 'app'		      => 'forums',
					  'allowRedirect' => 0,
					  'out'           => array( '#act=idx(&|$)#i', 'index$1' ),
					  'in'            => array( 'regex'   => "#/index(/|$)#i",
										        'matches' => array( array( 'act', 'idx' ) ) ) ),

It looks like like all you have to do is remove /forum and /topic from the 2 places in the template.
