/forum vs /forums & maybe short URLs in either case

After the forum upgrade and reconfigure of portal-like behavior the "http://forum.movingblocks.net/forum/" doesn't work as it is "http://forum.movingblocks.net/forums/" now - @small-jeeper not sure if this was something we did or just the new addon working differently :-)

In either case I suspect a quick Apache tweak could make it so both versions work. Or we could even see if we could get the /forum(s) to go away with a rewrite rule so it would simply be http://forum.movingblocks.net == forum with threads going immediately after

So http://forum.movingblocks.net/forums/announcements.8/ == http://forum.movingblocks.net/announcements.8/

That second part is minor though. A quick redirect from forum to forums should be enough, really!

Oh nice! They added support for that right in XF in 1.2 I guess - neat :-)

Thanks for tweaking the forum/forums bit. Want to see what happens in the test forum if we take out the forum part entirely? I wonder if it'll break anything

Actually, I forgot, the plain root path is the "Home" tab - so never mind! Complete, thanks :-)

mmm. I don't know, what I did... But ok =)))

Maybe it was a weird caching issue or something, /forum wasn't working for me while /forums was - now both work :-)
