Wrong tag links

Hello in tag links special characters are not changed and separator is + instead of -. In other link it is ok.

Example of tag link:
SIMPLE-NLP.pl darmowe forum o NLP - Threads Tagged with podwójna dysocjacja

Example of other link:
SIMPLE-NLP.pl darmowe forum o NLP

Config of character change:
$vbseo_custom_char_replacement = array(
'ˇ' => 'A',
'¦' => 'S',
'¬' => 'Z',
'±' => 'a',
'¶' => 's',
'Ľ' => 'z',
'ą' => 'a',
'ą' => 'a',
'ę' => 'e',
'ć' => 'c',
'ż' => 'z',
'ś' => 's',
'ź' => 'z',
'ó' => 'o',
'ł' => 'l',
'ń' => 'n',
'Ą' => 'A',
'Ę' => 'E',
'Ć' => 'C',
'Ż' => 'Z',
'Ś' => 'S',
'Ź' => 'Z',
'Ó' => 'O',
'Ł' => 'L',
'Ń' => 'N');

Hello,

replacements are not applied to tag URLs by default since that will make some tag links not working correctly, you can enable this option in config_vbseo.php file to apply replacements:

PHP Code:

    define('VBSEO_URL_TAGS_FILTER',        1); 


If some tags will not working correctly so what are yours recomendations?... I think it is wise to let it works correctly.

Even If I don't do anything with configuration and leave as is default Tag links don't work properly!

Each tag where are polish letters doesn't work! I see it in google webmasters tools problem is that links which vbSEO generates don't apply '% convention'. So right now there is no way to tag links work properly in vbSEO.

Example of link from vbSEO (I see it in google webmaster tools as address which was not found):
http://www.forum.simple-nlp.pl/tags/błąd.html
Same link in code section:

Code:

http://www.forum.simple-nlp.pl/tags/błąd.html

And here is equivalent (for same link) which is generated in vBulletin tag cloud:
SIMPLE-NLP.pl darmowe forum o NLP - Wiadomo?ci z Tagiem "b??d"
Same link in code section:

Code:

http://www.forum.simple-nlp.pl/tags/b%B3%B1d.html

Right now I have somesthing about 90 links in sitemap which don't work for this reason and I'm worrying about negative impact in positioning...

Hello,

what is the table character set used in your database?

character set client latin2
character set connection utf8
(Global) latin2
character set database latin2
character set filesystem binary
character set results latin2
character set server latin2
character set system utf8
character sets dir /usr/local/share3/mysql/charsets/
collation connection utf8_unicode_ci
(Global) latin2_general_ci
collation database latin2_general_ci
collation server latin2_general_ci

Please open a ticket with ftp access for troubleshooting.

ftp access??...

Yes (ftp username/password)

I have to give You my username and password to ftp access to my forum???

Only if you still need assistance and only via support ticket (not here on the forum).

I prefer to keep my passwords safe and to not give it to any one.

If it is a bug in vbSEO my password is not needed.
If it is my mystake in configuration, please give me a hint how to correct it. I gave You all information you asked for. Do You neeed some more information to help me configure vbSEO to work propertly?

The thing is that I cannot reproduce the issue on my testing instance.
Do you know where the incorrect link is located? The link from your SIMPLE-NLP.pl darmowe forum o NLP - Tagi page is pointing to SIMPLE-NLP.pl darmowe forum o NLP - Wiadomo?ci z Tagiem "b??d" and it's opened fine. I cannot find http://www.forum.simple-nlp.pl/tags/b%C5%82%C4%85d.html link anywhere on the site.

I also don't know where those bad links are, but google see it so there is no magic - somesthing is wrong.

Here you have screen shot from google webmaster tools with wrong links:

Those entries were found by Google on August 23-24, as I see. Looks like that was at the moment when you tried t change tag filtering option (as mentioned in this thread above). Now that you have default vBSEO settings for tag URLs, I see no recent entries for tag URLs on your screenshot.
I just checked your sitemap and it contains correct URLs too, so everything is fine now.
