Thread:Project:Support desk/How do I change "index" to "wiki"?/reply

I would start creating the folder "wiki". Then I would move all files of the wiki into this folder. Result: You have URLs like site.org/wiki/index.php/Article-Title

Then you must still get rid of the "index.php" in the URLs. Two ideas: This is possible with the Apache module mod_rewrite, but mod_rewrite is complex to use. Maybe (idea 2) MediaWiki has some option to supress this "index.php" in the URLs. Then performance would not be as good as with mod_rewrite, but if such an option exists (which I don't know), then it is likely to be easier to use than mod_rewrite.
