Install Guide

Hi,

i have just downloaded vbseo but i cant find an install guide anywhere. Ive checked the email i got from vbseo and searched the forums for "install vbseo" and "installation" but nothing is coming up. Does anyone have a link for the installation instructions?

Thanks

Hello Ronan ,

Install guide is located inside docs folder from the package you download. The file name is readme.html

Thanks,

Got it now. I had opened the readme but just though it was the liscence agreement and didnt see the links on the left hand side.

Doh,

I have added vbseo with the plugin manager and it seem to have loaded up ok. When i go to /forum/vbseo/vbseocp.php i get the following errors even though i have changed the access on the vbseo/includes/config_vbseo.php file to 666:

Anyone know why this might be happening?

Thanks again.

Ronan,

vbseocp.php should be in forum root directory.

Thanks, i didnt realize. I have been using phpbb in the past and mods were always added inside the phpBB directory.

But... Grrrrrrr... same problem

I have checked the ioncube folder and it has various loaders but the highest it goes up to is ioncube_loader_lin_5.0.so , is this what it should be looking for or should their be one for 5.2?

Hello Ronan ,

It looks like you uploaded all vbseo related files to a folder named vbseo but you must upload all files inside upload folder to your forum dir.

Ok, this is getting to be a major pain. i have now uploaded the folder again now called "upload" but am still getting the same error.

Did u mean upload the folder again to the root dir or just the files inside the "upload" folder into the root dir? I cant upload them without the "upload" folder because i already have another folder called "images".

You have to upload the files inside upload folder to forum dir. The files inside images folder will not overwrite any existing files so you don't need to worry about that.

It's a common misconception that uploading a directory that already exists will overwrite that directory. It doesn't work that way. The new files will just be placed into their correct locations in the existing directory structure.

And, you must ensure that you have deleted all of the 'old' vBSEO files that were uploaded incorrectly.
