Is Possible? vBSEO Redirecting?

Hello,

I heard a lot of vBSEO and I am also interested to purchase.

First of all I need to ask a question to any of SEO Expert.
Because A friend of mine had and still have this problem like mine, but he dont know English

He have a host hosted at globat.com for more than 2 years, abt 6mths ago he installed vBSEO at his vBulletin.

The problem is:

His host is lets say Host (where vb is vBulletin root directory)

Than he bought a domain www.domain.com and pointed it directly at Host so when you type Host you get automaticly at Host.

The problem is configuring vBSEO ... I dont know what...

If he turns vBSEO ON and lunch his forum from Host Its oK
but when he lunch his forum from www.domain.com and click at any thread than the link becomes www.domain.com/vb/thread.....

I think that he have to change something at .htaccess but Im not sure what because I dont have experience...

His .htaccess at directory Host looks like:

Code:

# 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 /vb/

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.domain\.com
# RewriteRule (.*) http://www.domain.com/$1 [L,R=301]

RewriteRule ^((urllist|sitemap_).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(admincp/|modcp/|cron|vbseo_sitemap)
RewriteRule ^((archive/)?(.*\.php(/.*)?))$ vbseo.php [L,QSA]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !^(admincp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images)/
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ vbseo.php [L,QSA]

So is that possible? or How is that possible to change the code that even if he enters from www.domain.com he will not get that /vb/ ???

Hope that someone will help?
Thank you, and looking forward for any expert's reply.

Hello,

So that means that the problem can be resolved because I want also to open a forum and purchase vBSEO and we have servers in same site (globat.com)

If that means that there is any solution oK!

PS.
I guess that he needs the VBSEO LIcense to login right ?

Yes there is a solution and your friend can login with his username and password. For support he needs to have a vBSEO License.

Hi Besnik,

You could also request your friend to add you to his prioritized support usernames so that you can also submit support requests on his behalf.

Glad to hear that you are getting ready to power up your forum with vBSEO too!
