| vBSEO changing profile URL
Hi , I encountered an issue with vb since i upgraded to 3.7 I mean let say a user registered under the name "test" and another user registered under the name "test1" when the user named "test" tries to go to view his profile, he will be directed to the user under the name "test1" so similar names conflict with each others, with 3.6.10 that never happened. Is there a fix for this ? ----------- and vb told me this Hi there Katie; That is due to vBSEO changing your URL... You should contact them and see if there's a way to correct that behaviour, it may be just a need to add the user id in the URL or something, but I don't know their product enough to help you. Sorry. Best regards, Andy Huang vBulletin Support Team |

1. Open your vBSEO CP 2. Click "+" in "Forum URLs" section 3. Find "Member Profile" option and change it to custom setting: Code: members/[user_name]-[user_id].html

Hi Oleg, so something like this Member Profile Select a member profile URL format or create a custom layout using the field provided. NOTE: Since vBulletin does not allow for duplicate usernames, it is safe not to use the [user_id] variable. Sample custom string: u[user_id].html choose custom and insert this members/[user_name]-[user_id].html that caused anyone who i to be directed to the forum homepage whenever i try to click on their profile |
