3.2.0 RC8 - Require Error when Clicking on Last Post

Hi there,

Similar to this error reported here, when users click on the "last post" arrow icon on forumhome to a specific thread (all other threads are fine), they get this error message:

Warning: require(/home/aelyria/public_html/forums/82546-heads-up-search-index.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/aelyria/public_html/forums/vbseo.php on line 1464

Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/aelyria/public_html/forums/82546-heads-up-search-index.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/aelyria/public_html/forums/vbseo.php on line 1464

The URL in question is:
http://www.aelyria.com/forums/genera...ml#post1319809

Running vBulletin 3.7.2, and vBSEO 3.2.0 RC8. Clicking on the last post title itself (taking you to "new_post") is fine, but clicking on the arrow (taking you to a specific postid a-name) results in this error in the above thread.

I just figured out why it does this. If the thread's subject title ends with the word "index", it produces this error. I changed my thread's subject title from "Index" to "Indexing"... and the bug went away.

Accoridng to feedback from other users on this topic, it seems that this bug occurs when the following applies:

• Using the .html extension for SEO paths
• Subject name ends with the word "index"

Any patch/fix for this?

Hello,

looks like you have a Custom Rewrite Rule defined in vBSEO CP with "index" in it, you should locate it and change or remove.

You are right, actually. The custom rewrite rule I have is for vBadvanced which takes my "index.php?page=suchandsuch" and turns it into "index-suchandsuch.html". Does this mean that I can't use this rewrite rule? If so, what rewrite rule can I use for my vBadvanced pages (or is this not possible)?

What exactly is your current CRR?

'index\.php\?realm=(\w+)$' => 'index-$1.html'

Try to add the leading "^":

Code:

'^index\.php\?realm=(\w+)$' => 'index-$1.html'

Thanks, Oleg, but that doesn't work. My index.php file is located on my root (i.e., /index.php) whereas my forums are located at /forums/ -- inserting the carot on the CRR makes the index rewrite not function at the root level.

Any thoughts?

What exactly is the error you get in this case?

There is no error, but the CRR does not rewrite /index.php?page=abc to /index-abc.html. Only the CRR without the carrot (^) succeeds in doing that.

Please try to modify functions_vbseo.php file:
FIND:

PHP Code:

($is_vbdir ? $base_script : $url_script) 


REPLACE WITH:

PHP Code:

$base_script
