i agree that this is a good idea. here is what i would do:
  • add the URL rules at the end of your working .htaccess file
  • leave the enable SEO url set to off/false.
  • ensure that your site is still working with the SEO set to off
  • if it is not working, i would comment out this line by adding the '#' in front of it:
  • #RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
  • once the site is working with the modified .htaccess file, i would then start troubleshooting the rules part of it.
  • i would see what happens with this url: https://australianbakerycafe.com/pie-p-185


apache directives can get complex... but this is how i would start to troubleshoot this problem.

best.
