vBSEO and NNTP hack

but otherwise no probs. have it on my site. (one prob though can be with usernames(depends on how you rewrite them in settings from vbseocp.) cos there might be a username conflict if you don't put userid.)

No, they don't. At least, not with vbseo 2.2.2 and the version of the nntp hack written for vbulletin 3.5.1

I re-imported the vbseo xml file, and now vbseo seems to be working again.
Hopefully this didn't break the nntp hack! I can live without usenet messages having their url's rewritten

In functions_nntp.php the signature code now looks like this to get the proper URL's

PHP Code:

          if ($nntp_settings['nofooter'] == 0)
        {
            define('MY_DIR', dirname(__FILE__));
            include_once (MY_DIR . '/includes/functions_vbseo.php');
            vbseo_startup();
        
            $getthreads = $db->query("
            SELECT *
            FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "thread
            WHERE threadid = $newthread[threadid]
            ");
        
            $threadrow = $db->fetch_array($getthreads); 
        
            $memberurl = vbseo_member_url_row($newthread['userid'], $newthread['username']);
            $threadurl = vbseo_thread_url_row($threadrow);
        
            $signature .= "\n------------------------------------------------------------------------\n";
            $signature .= "{$newthread['username']}'s Profile: http://domain.net/{$memberurl}\n";
            $signature .= "View this thread: http://domain.net/{$threadurl}\n";
        } 


Make sure to either put in {$nntp_settings['threadurl']} for the url or change domain.net to your domain. I just put in my domain cause it was easier.

Oh, and if you allow guests make sure to do the same thing to that if statement as well.
