Mod Rewrite Problem? Safe Mode? Need help!

[jeeplaw]

Just finished up with a fresh install, and did some template editing, however, I noticed my search doesn't work (with mod-rewrite checked yes or no) and my home page links, like this one- http://www.dietdirectory.org/index.php?list=top don't work..they just redirect back to the index page.

I'm not sure if safe mode is on, to be honest, but I do know mod-rewrite is active.

When i enable mod rewrite through the admin screen, i get clean urls in my categories, so that's not an issue.

You installed the directory in the root. This may be the problem if your server already uses an .htaccess file. You might try creating a folder such as /directory or /links to put the files in and run the install again.

Yea, the directory is installed in the root, but the only .htaccess that is being used is the one that was supplied with the directory.

Could it be this line which is throwing everything off?

RewriteRule (.*)page-(\d+)\.html$ $1/?p=$2 [PT,NC]

Ok, I think I narrowed it down to the template I was using. I just did a fresh install and everything works..although I have no real template to use, lol.

Are there any free 3.0.4 templates available?
