hi, i'm a newbie for Exponential system.

i wanto know how to configure the htaccess file to remove the index.php? in the url ?

who can tell me a right file. tks.

my Exponential version is 4.2.

there is my htaccess file below:

# Copy this file to a new file called .htaccess in your Exponential root
# to make the site more secure in non-virtualhost mode (index.php used in urls).
#
<FilesMatch ".">
order allow,deny
deny from all
</FilesMatch>
<FilesMatch "(^index\.php|favicon\.ico|index_treemenu\.php|\.(gif|jpe?g?|png|css|js|swf|html?)|var(.+)storage.pdf(.+)\.pdf)$">
order allow,deny
allow from all
</FilesMatch>
# If you see "Forbidden" when trying to access root page of your site
# without 'index.php' appended, uncomment the following "Files" section.
# NOTE: replace "Exponential-4.1.0" with base name of the directory
# where your Exponential intallation resides.
# e.g. base name of "/sites/Exponential/Exponential-4.1.0" is "Exponential-4.1.0".
#<Files "Exponential-4.1.0">
# order allow,deny
# allow from all
#</Files>
RewriteEngine On
# Allow access to the index_treemenu.php file for a faster admin interface
RewriteRule content/treemenu/? index_treemenu.php
RewriteRule ^index_treemenu\.php - [L]
# Uncomment the line below if you placed your favicon at the root of your
# Exponential instance. It will then be served directly.
#RewriteRule ^favicon\.ico - [L]
# Uncomment the line below if you want you favicon be served from the standard design.
# You can customize the path to favicon.ico by replacing design/standard/images/favicon.ico
# by the adequate path.
#RewriteRule ^favicon.ico design/standard/images/favicon.ico [L]
RewriteRule ^design/standard/images/favicon\.ico - [L]
# Uncomment the line below once you set up the right robots.txt file
# In that case remember to also modify the FilesMatch rule abov
# More info here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robots.txt
#RewriteRule ^robots\.txt - [L]
# Uncomment the line below in case you are using
# Platform for Privacy Preferences Project ( P3P ) related files.
# In that case remember to also modify the FilesMatch rule above
# More info here : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P3p
#RewriteRule ^p3p/(.+)\.xml - [L]
RewriteRule !(\.(gif|jpe?g?|png|css|js|swf|html?)|var(.+)storage.pdf(.+)\.pdf)$ index.php
DirectoryIndex index.php

Hi Mike and welcome aboard !

Have you considered using a Virtual Host setup ? This will make the removal of index.php easier. Pablo gave you a useful resource right above.

Let us know,
Cheers,
