URL Rewrite and remove /m

How can i remove or edit the "/m" in the url of "http://www.mysite.com/m/events/home/" and also edit the "/events"

I went to edit the .htaccess but when i edit from:

RewriteRule ^m/(.*)$  modules/index.php?r=$1 [QSA,L]

to

RewriteRule ^zone/(.*)$  modules/index.php?r=$1 [QSA,L] or delete it the page can no longer be found

Can you walk me through what i missed and what i need to do and where to edit the files that i need to edit?

Also to change "/events/home" to "/parties/home" do i just need to add this rule below the /m rule?

RewriteRule ^parties/(.*)$  modules/index.php?r=events/$1 [QSA,L]

 yes i know, i've tried this but do not know what these instructions below mean or where to do them.

And remove m/ in `sys_permalinks` with my sql。

do i remove all the m/ by editing the permalinks?

do i need the -->> in the code below?

RewriteRule ^m/(.*)$  modules/index.php?r=$1 [QSA,L]   -->>

Using phpmyadmin or your database editor of choice you need to go into your database and edit the "sys_permalinks" table. Remove all the /m from the links.

Then edit your main .htaccess file and format the links to match AlexT's example:

RewriteRule ^photos/(.*)$  modules/index.php?r=photos/$1 [QSA,L]
