Topic: Admin - URL Scheme notice

The following is in the admin

URL Scheme (SEF URLs) for your board's pages

WARNING! If you select any scheme other than the default scheme you must copy/upload the file .htaccess from the extras directory into the forum root directory. The server that hosts the forums must be configured with mod_rewrite support and must allow the use of .htaccess files. For servers other than Apache, please refer to your servers documentation.

However there is no .htaccess in the extras folder, You rename the .htaccess.dist to just .htaccess

You might want to update that notice there

Re: Admin - URL Scheme notice

I would just use the default scheme. I've done that on all the forums I've installed and can't see any reason to do otherwise.

where is extra directory I can't find it.

I just had a thorough look. There isn't one.
