@fragfoo To remove index.php from the URLs you need to do two things:

1) in main.php where you see 'urlFormat'=>'path' (in the 'urlManager' section), add another parameter: 'showScriptName' => false, this will remove index.php from the links

2) In the webroot folder of your app, add a .htaccess rule (for Apache, IIS will need different settings) with a rewrite rule of:  RewriteRule . index.php This will help your web server still call index.php

Here is how to remove index.php from the URL: search for "Using search engine and user friendly URLs" on the wiki documentation of the yii framework homepage

@scotnery True, how do you do it?

[dreznik]

and how do we actually do it (no index.php)

at 9:54, it leaves out index.php removal and skips ahead.
