    vBStyles.com

    Now, i know i don't hold a position of any regard at vB Styles but i would still be interested to view your feedback on their use of the acronym expansion feature. It looks as though the following "acroynms" are being expaneded within the URL:

    styles => vbulletin-styles
    vbulletin => vbulletin-vbulletin
    Hencefore, meaning that a thread with the topic title vbulletin styles would have a URL of vbulletin-vbulletin-vbulletin-vbulletin-styles.html Quite funny really, but interesting.

    And also forums, and subforums within the site are no longer referred to a folders, and instead, now have their own .html page. Your thoughts on this?

    The acronym expansion is applied in the order you specify them, so to avoid multi-"vbulletin" expansion in your case, you may just switch the order of acronym definitions:

    vbulletin => vbulletin-vbulletin
    styles => vbulletin-styles


    And also forums, and subforums within the site are no longer referred to a folders, and instead, now have their own .html page. Your thoughts on this?
    Please check your Forumdisplay URL format in vbseocp - perhaps you didn't restored the original format after the recent issue at your forums?

    Oleg, as i stated in the defining topic i am not the administrator, nor a member weilding any great power at www.vbstyles.com i was merely interested in how everyone perceived their use of vBSEO. Since most use folders for forums, here, they are using .html pages, and most use actual acroymns to expand, such as VB => vBulletin, but instead they are making a much more, efficient, use of the features vBSEO possess.

    Sorry, i was unclear too. I thought the thread title, which i inserted as vB Styles would have been sufficient, but it appears as though you have acronym expansion enabled in the text too, so it appeared as vBulletin Styles making it much more generic. I've altered the thread title, and made the topic content more relevant to vB Styles.
