Greatly considering

I installed this for another customer of yours. And I like how easy it was to install and love what it does for the forum. I am also a member of dnforum.com which uses it. I have played w/ several free seo scripts for vb (which i know has no comparison for vbseo), but had problems with them working with usernames that had non alphabetical/numerical characters in them where when you click on the users profile it would come up not found. Specially after changing their username to add these characters. I am just wondering if this has ever happened with this script.

hope this all makes since.

For best results, you'll need to include the userid in the Member Profile URL format.

You won't have this problem specifically. The only problem you will encounter is with users that have the same username after the filtering has been applied, example:

Alex

~Alex~

Since vBSEO filters those special characters, it would display a single profile under
members/alex.html for example

However, we have implemented a workaround that enables your to keep the names clean (with no user ID). It's an option to include special characters for usernames (available via the config_vbseo.php file) - You'll then have no issues with duplicate member profiles.

Another workaround is installing a hack that prevents users from using special characters in their usernames - available at vB.org

Or, as Keith mentions, adding the [user-id] to the URL format, is bulletproof.... I like the clean names though
