Re: Webroot / .htaccess issue

Managed to finally solve this with a bit of fiddling!

I basically moved the entire webroot folder to the public_html folder,
as well as the tmp and config files, overwriting the .htaccess and
index.php (so I now have just 3 .htaccess files), and the index.php as
well (updated the paths in the index file).

So it was a mod rewrite issue after all!
