Alright, when I try to go to members/user/My ID/ it doesn't show the profile but instead, it shows the main users listing. Any help with this?

When you go to "members/user/My ID/", what's the resulting URL? You'll probably have to print it out within index.php.

The RewriteRule flags might have something to offer. For instance, the L flag will stop rewrite processing when a URL matches a rule (one of the other rules might be causing problems).

You can see what luck you have with Martin Melin's RewriteRule tester.

This won't help with this problem, but the 0-or-1-quantifier ("?") will let your RewriteRule match URLs that don't have a trailing "/" (e.g. try the pattern "^([a-zA-Z]+)/?$")

When I go to members/user/1/ it assumes that 1 is an ID instead of a user because of the rule at the very top.

use [L] after the ReWrite Condition. for more information visit this url

Put the more specific rule (the one with the "^([a-zA-Z]+)/user/([0-9]+)/?$" pattern) before the more general rule. Use the [L]ast flag as an optimization (it probably won't help with correctness).
