I've installed vBSEO 3.2, buuutttt...

Which is the official, supported version of vBSEO, but when I installed I had a few problems with installing the SiteMap 2.5 software, I have tried several times to fix it - I even re-generated the sitemap, lo and behold, I got it to work, it shows that google attempted to download from the sitemap, I thought it was successful, until I logged into my webmaster tools at google.

It shows a big red, fat, stupid "warnings" on my status.

I would like to know how to fix this. How did you solve this?

What are the warnings?

What do you see when you click "Details"?

what? You didn't see the attachment?

EDIT: Ahhh yes. I see what you mean now.

"bumped"

You can delete this post, plz.

Are you including the old vBulletin formats? If so, you should remove them and regenerate your sitemap.

how do I remove the old vbulletin format?

I thought that, by including the old format, it would have redirected Google to that post. This database was imported into a fresh brand new database, because the old one was causing problems.

Login to your vBulletin Control panel. Find the vBSEO Sitemap settings. Look for the following option:

If you have vBSEO, include old urls?
While vBSEO will automatically 301-redirect old (dynamic) URLs to the newly formatted static URLs, some users may opt to include the old URLs in the sitemap to ensure Google finds the redirect headers for each page. Include this option until you note that most old URLs have been purged from Google.

Turned off that option...

Ran Generator again....

And resubmitted to Google.

Sound good?

Sounds good, but let's see if those errors disappear. That's the real test.

Sooooo, Joe, any tips for maximizing my vBSEO? That is, while I'm in my ACP?
