Trying to get started with my new php directory. For the past two days, I 'm trying to enable the SEO, it doesn't work for me.
I enabled the URL rewrite in admin + I did upload the .htaccess file to the root directory (did not make any changes to it)
The script is installed in the root of the site. running 3.2

I can see that the URL for a given directory is reflecting the directory url and same for subdirectory, but i get 404 error.

How did you enable SEO and url rewrite, please help.
thanks,

I would update to the new 3.3 which is very easy. The URL rewrite system and the SEO section is all new.

I have had a few problems with the 3.2s myself but the 3.3 is excellent.

Any thing i should do with the .htaccess file.
Many lines are commented.
