+### GNU social "fancy URL" setup
+#
+# Change the "RewriteBase" in the new .htaccess file to be the URL path
+# to your GNU Social installation on your server. Typically this will
+# be the path to your GNU Social directory relative to your Web root.
+# If you are installing it in the root directory, leave it as '/'.
+#
+# If it doesn't work, double-check that AllowOverride for the GNU Social
+# directory is 'All' in your Apache configuration file. This can be
+# * /etc/apache2/apache2.conf (generic)
+# * /etc/apache2/sites-available/default(on Debian and Ubuntu)
+# * ...many other variations depending on distribution...
+#
+# See the Apache documentation for .htaccess files for more details:
+# https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/howto/htaccess.html
+#
+# Also, check that mod_rewrite is installed and enabled:
+# https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_rewrite.html
