Bit confused here, wasn't even sure where to post this. I have vBSEO installed and working well, I also use vBadvanced for my site. Forums are at /forum/ vbadvanced etc is at / I was previously using my .htaccess for rewrites of vBadvanced stuff, but I hear that vBSEO works with vBadvanced, but I do not know how. For example, a few of my URLs are: http://www.mini2.com/index.php?page=...rticlestart=10 (the second page of my news headlines) http://www.mini2.com/index.php?page=newsitem&newsid=343 (news article with newsid of 343) At present I use a very long winded way to get http://www.mini2.com/news10.html to link to the first (using htaccess 301) and www.mini2.com/article343.html to link to the second. (I have further pages, but they all follow a similar format for reviews etc.) Now, do I, can I get vBSEO to do the rewrites, either out of the box (I understand my "fake" .hmtl links would probably have to be updated) or as custom rewrite rules? Thanks in advance! |

This is how I work it at the moment. RewriteRule ^news(.*).html /index.php?page=mini2news&articlestart=$1 [L,R=301] RewriteRule ^article(.*).html /index.php?page=newsitem&newsid=$1 [L,R=301] |

Hello, you can use the following CRRs to rewrite these links: Code: 'index\.php\?page=newsitem&newsid=(\d+)' => 'article$1.html' 'index\.php\?page=mini2news&articlestart=(\d+)' => 'news$1.html' Quote:

Thank you very much! Another (last) question on this. I wish to redirect both sponsors.html and sponsor.html to the same page (index.php?page=directory) When I did this: 'index\.php\?page=directory' => 'sponsors.html' 'index\.php\?page=directory' => 'sponsor.html' It gave a "Page not found" for sponsors, but sponsor worked. Can I make this work? Thanks again! |

Hello, you can only define one CRR per URL (because the same URL cannot be rewritten to both sponsor.html and sponsors.html at the same time You should maintain manual rewrite rule in .htaccess for this: Code: RewriteRule ^sponsors?\.html$ index.php?page=directory [L]

Hello Steve, vBSEO goes into your forums directory, along with the .htaccess that comes with vBSEO. If vBadvanced CMPS is in the root, you'll need an additional .htaccess in that location, containing the information Oleg provided in the second part of his post here: How does this work with vBadvanced?

Hello barroca, these lines should NOT be entered in .htaccess: Code: 'index\.php\?page=newsitem&newsid=(\d+)' => 'article$1.html' 'index\.php\?page=mini2news&articlestart=(\d+)' => 'news$1.html' You should also change: Code: RewriteRule ^(.*)$ forum/vbseo.php?vbseourl=$1&vbseorelpath=../&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
Code: RewriteRule ^(.*)$ forums/vbseo.php?vbseourl=$1&vbseorelpath=../&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
