SEO

my userprofiles are rewritten to /mitglieder/userid/username/

on forumhome (lastpost area) the userid part is empty!
/mitglieder//username/


VBSEO 2.3.1

Hello Michael,

do you mean boardplanet.net?
Seems like all member profiles are correctly rewritten to URLs like "/mitglieder/1084/".

Did you changed URL format or does it get fixed somehow?

Could you get me a backup of your previous (vbseo_urls.xml) format so that we can take a look? Thanks

I turned on rewriting of usernames for a short period yesterday and also saw this.

It wasn't a constant bug, just intermittent.

I chose a custom format of /members/userid-username.html

I needed to use the userid as I we have some users who have daft usernames like $£€ or Тьма and these were causing problems, so the userid gives vbSEO a nice known entity to work with when rewriting and handling URL's.

What I witnessed was that on my Who's Online footer... just 1 user didn't have the userid! so the file name came out as /members/-username.html which was then a broken link.

I pressed refresh to save if I could repeat it... and all the links were fine. A few minutes later on another page (a showthread page) I noticed another link was broken. Again clicked refresh, again was fine.

It seems that the userid is absent from some rewritten links, but the pattern for this I couldn't determine as I failed to reproduce it in any logical way.

As I was only rewriting member links for shits and giggles (my member pages are kept private and not viewable by spiders) I just turned it off. But there is a problem there... and it may simply relate to userid's in custom rules.

in the "new posts" search-page the "userid" part ist missing too

here my xml
