This video tutorial shows in detail how to setup SEF url's in Joomla 1.5. It covers the problems with .htaccess and the configuration.php file.. Having a problem.. don't forget to change the $live_site var in the configuration.php file.. Everytime you hit Apply or Save in the Configuration manager, it saves the $live_site var back to and empty string... ''.. you need to replace this with '/'....
Thanks for the video, really helped me. I would add that if this doesn't work for you, e.g. template losses styling then in your .htaccas file comment out this line "Options +FollowSymLinks" Got everything working for me !
