Thank you. I tried typing the clean urls in my browser, and they worked. I then added $conf['clean_url'] = 1; to the end of my settings.php file, and now clean urls are enabled!<br><br>I disabled the log-in block, so I log-in using the appended url ?q=user. Now that clean urls are enabled, I tried logging in by using <a href="http://www.sitename.com/user">www.sitename.com/user</a>. I receive the log-in prompt, but the log-in does not work, the page only refreshes. Is this normal?<br>
<br>Thanks again,<br><br>Troy<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, May 19, 2008 at 11:24 AM, Cog Rusty <<a href="mailto:cog.rusty@gmail.com">cog.rusty@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

</div>The only thing which the clean URLs setting does is to make Drupal<br>
actually use them in the menu links, if they are *already* enabled by<br>
.htaccess. So, try to type some clean URLs yourself in your browser to<br>
see if they work. If they do work, then the problem is not clean URLs<br>
but saving your setting.<br>
<br>
If they work, try also to force-enable them in your settings.php file<br>
by adding a $conf['clean_url'] = 1; at the end.<br>
