This means your site will return an 500 Error. After talking to the support for more than 1 hour they admitted they have made changes in the policies and now we should use "Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch" instead. Pretty bad communication from them and making this changes without noticing them. If you are affected by this issue, please your .htaccess should look like this to get to work: ErrorDocument 404 / Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^category/(.+) index.php?category=$1 RewriteRule ^offer/(.+) index.php?category=$1&type=0 RewriteRule ^need/(.+) index.php?category=$1&type=1 RewriteRule ^type/(.+) index.php?type=$1 RewriteRule ^publish-a-new-ad-for-free/ new/index.php RewriteRule ^contact/ contact/index.php RewriteRule ^privacy-policy/ privacy/index.php RewriteRule ^sitemap/ sitemap/index.php RewriteRule ^advanced-search/ search/index.php RewriteRule ^map/ map/index.php RewriteRule ^(.+)/(.+)/(.+)/(.+)$ item.php?item=$1&type=$2&category=$3&title=$4 </IfModule> This would be fixed for 1.6.1 that is coming soon with few improvements to make your life easier. I'm getting pretty annoyed by this hosting, since I use a Privvate Server and this things should never happen (as this other one <a href="http://j.mp/d8WVXY)" rel="nofollow">http://j.mp/d8WVXY)</a>.
