Any snags with using vB SEO with vB3.6.1?

Hi everyone @ vBSEO

Great product. I'm ready to go with vBSEO purchase. Even managed to persuade my host to load Zend extension for me.

Before I pay the dough and download, I thought I would ask the final question nagging at me: is this going to work on my board now that I've upgraded to vB3.6.1?

Every reference I find on here suggests it works on 3.0 and 3.5.X versions with no mention of 3.6.1.

Hurry up and reply, you guys - I got antz in me pantz and wanna use this, like yesterday.

Thanx in advance.

I just installed it on two 3.61 boards for people and it worked fine.

Thanx Code Monkey. Appreciate that advice.

Now, love to hear from someone official @ vBSEO before hand goes in purse. Hope support is a little faster than pre-sales. Usually, it's the other way around.

I'm running 361 perfectly fine, as well. Juan has also said that there are no known problems with 361

Are you guys running v3 RC5 or an older, stable version? Thanx for the link Chroder. Guess that's gospel, then. But buying before gold is something I try to avoid - it's a function of knowing very little about what I'm doing!

For vBulletin 3.6.x, you should use the latest release of vBSEO 3.0.0.

It's not recommended that you run the older versions of vBSEO with vBulletin 3.6.x.

Ah, thanx Keith. Final question then: any idea how long before going gold on 3.0.0. - or is RC5 almost there anyways?

Like someone else said here, I've been doing so many upgrades lately, I'm starting to get carpal tunnel.

P.S. Don't worry about answering this - I've bought it. Waiting for authorisation to download. Thanx for the advice anyways, all.

RC5 will most likely be the gold release, save for a few touch ups possibly. It is very stable and is running on many very active boards.

Welcome aboard Jeannette.

I cant seem to get VBSEO 3RC5 working with my vB3.61 board at Automobile forum Automotive News Directory - CarsDBs . I have even tried it with a clean 3.61 install but still returns a blank page whenever I install it.

Funny thing is the URLs are SEOed but the links arent.. Can Anyone help?

Thanks in advance

Did you upload .htaccess ?

yes

this is the file

# Comment the following line (add '#' at the beginning)
# to disable mod_rewrite functions.
# Please note: you still need to disable the hack in
# the vBSEO control panel to stop url rewrites.
RewriteEngine On

# Some servers require the Rewritebase directive to be
# enabled (remove '#' at the beginning to activate)
# Please note: when enabled, you must include the path
# to your root vB folder (i.e. RewriteBase /forums)
RewriteBase /community
RewriteRule ^((urllist|sitemap).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} (admincp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images)/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1 [L]

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

RewriteRule ^(archive/.*)$ vbseo.php?vbseourl=$1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

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


I am really stuck, I think we have removed the VBSEO now manually from CarsDBs and just the .htaccess is there as it returned a blank page when we imported the XML.


Thanks,

Matt

Hello Matt,

did you install vBSEO xml product in vB admincp?

Yes, and then the site went blank.

Could you please open a support ticket with ftp/admincp access for troubleshooting?
