To enable the CMS you need to install / enable the mod_rewrite module for Apache.

More info about mod_rewrite can be found here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_rewrite.html

You must know the Site ID of the website. This can be found in Group-Office at:

Websites -> Sites -> Double click the site

Then you must add the following rewrite rule to your VirtualHost section:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName yourdomain.com
ServerAlias www.yourdomain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/yourdomain.com
<Directory /var/www/yourdomain.com>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /groupoffice/modules/cms/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ run.php?site_id=<The Site ID here>&path=$1&basehref=/&%{QUERY_STRING}
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/yourdomain.com/groupoffice>
RewriteEngine Off
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

The rewrite base might be different in your environment. Here Group-Office is located in /groupoffice and the website runs at the top level.

Use one of the above parameters optionally. If they are omitted it will list the items of the active folder. That is the folder of the file that the visitor is currently viewing.

$expand_levels = Defaults to 0 if you set a value it will expand into a treeview when a folder is clicked.
