Hi guys, I am trying to change the way the login/register links look.

Instead of  http://site/wp-login.php?actio…..view=forum

I want it to be http://site/login

So far, I tried to make adjustments in the htaccess but to no avail.

The changes I tried went like this:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /site.com/

RewriteRule ^login http://site/wp-login.php?actio.....view=forum

well, the wp-login.php file is obviously a wp file and not sp…  and the change you are attempting would only affect forum login… the standard wp login page would still act as normal, so you would want to be more generic…

but you could take a look at our internal wp rewrite rules that we do in function sfg_set_rewrite_rules() in file sf-loader-global.php and be able to effect the redirection in there…

I am guessing that the forum uses the wp login but masks it with the "&view=forum".

The change I am attempting did not affect anything (forum or wp login) all it did was bring up a page not found when I went to http://site.com/login or http://site.com/forum/login

Are you not doing this back to front. Shouldn't you be changing the login url in the forum login and registration panel to your desired url and then adding a rewrite rule to redirect that to the WP login url?

RewriteRule ^wp-login.php?action=login&view=forum http://site.com/login/

But still no no avail…
