    How do I do this?

    I'm currently running vb3.8.4 PL1, and vbseo 3.3.0. I want to upgrade my forum to 4.0.7. My concern is losing the links to my forum discussions in Google. I don't want people to google something, find a link to a thread on my forum, and get a "page not found". So how do I upgrade my forum w/o losing any traffic from Google?

    Hello,

    You need to isntall vbseo 3.5.2 after installing vb4. vbseo 3.3 is not compatible with vb4. You won't lose any links.

    Do I need to uninstall 3.3.0 before upgrading to 4.0?

    You should set vbseo to 'disabled' in vb3 product manager before performing the vb4 upgrade, then install 3.5.2 as normal onto vb4. Note in the 3.5.1 announcement the list of files to delete.
