cmps question

Hello,

I had a question about vBadvanced cmps. I wondered how vBSEO works with cmps or if it even adds these pages. Does the news on my cmps home page get included?

The reason I am asking is I have several cmps pages on my site & was about to add a new page with a very large amount of content.

And if is not, is their anything I can to?


Thanks, dreck

Hello,

you can rewrite cmps URLs with Custom Rewrite Rules, as described here: vba CMPS and vbSeo

I will definitely give that a whirl.

Thanks, dreck

I think I did this right?

I have this in the custom rewrite rules:

Code:

// showgroup.php as forumleaders.html v.0.1 by the vBSEO Team ;)
// Remove the comment below to enable.
//'^showgroups.php$' => 'forumleaders.html'
'index.php?page=(.+)' => 'index-$1.html'

And I create a new .htaccess in "www/.htaccess":

Code:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !vb/
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !vbseourl=
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ vb/vbseo.php?vbseourl=$1&vbseorelpath=../&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !vb/
RewriteRule ^(.*.php)$ vb/vbseo.php?vbseourl=$1&vbseorelpath=../&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

My forum is

Code:

http://thisdarncar.com/vb/index.php

And cmps is

Code:

http://thisdarncar.com/index.php

How do I know if it is working right?

Thanks, dreck

grrr.. The darn thing keeps rewriting my code.

Anyway vBulletin=vb

Yes, it's correct.

It works correctly if your cmps URLs are looking like index-title.html instead of index.php?page=title.

ah.. I see!

Thanks, dreck

One more question.

I notice the cmps doesn't show up in the archive pages across the bottom of page?
Anyway to add this or will this be a big factor?

Also, I have asked for help at vbadvanced.com about why cmps doesn't show up in the site map. Noone seems to want to answer. I've bumped the thread up several times.
I just wanted to know if it should? Or if it has to be hacked? Or someone to say it can't be done?
I realize this is not something I should ask here, but thought maybe someone might know.

Thanks, dreck

Yes, vBulletin's archive code should be hacked to display non-vBulletin URLs in the archive.

OK, thanks.

/me goes to search for a hack.
