Couple of suggestions

1. Redirecting the index.php file to /

I have coded it myself as of now but I guess this would be a nice feature to have

something like

MBA Guys - Forum for MBA, CAT, GMAT & IIM

Redirects to

MBA Guys - Forum for MBA, CAT, GMAT & IIM

2. www / non-www domain redirect.

There should be a setting to have only one in vbseocp as it helps in SEO as well. I have also done the same on my forums.

1. This is already an option in vbseo. Please see this setting in your vbseocp.php: Force Forum Root as Homepage?

2. This is done via vbseo's .htaccess file. You need to uncomment the line, and change the domain name to yours accordingly.

No it does not work and thats why I uploaded the one I coded it. I thought it was meant for just replacing the links of index.php to / but when we view the index.php it would not redirect.

It does work.
It 301 redirects the /index.php to the Forum Root for me.

Nice forum but your index.php is redirected to /forums/ but I am not sure for what reason my /index.php did not redirect to / and so I did my own coding for this.

Yes, because my forum is actually at /forums.php
So, /index.php is correctly 301 redirected to /forums.php

But using CRRs, i have rewritten it to /forums/

So, /index.php -> /forums.php -> /forums/

so probably thats why it works.

What I am suggesting is we have the forums in the main domain / main folder / forum folde and index.php as the forum root then also index.php should redirect to /

It worked for me even when I had my Forumhome as /index.php too.
(as opposed to the current setup of forumhome as /forums.php)

No idea why it doesn't work for you.

Lets see if someone is willing to look at it.

How do we change the password of vbseocp ?

vBSEO File:config vbseo php/Reset Password - VBSEO Wiki

Now its working. I missed the Text box where we need to add the filenames probably and adding them did it for me.
