Blog tags pagination url rewrite settings--errors in google webmaster tools.

This is WIERD!!!

I have fourteen fresh errors in webmaster tools. Two for each of my SEVEN blog tags. The errors are identical; I see no difference between any pair of errors. The pages do throw a 404 error.


The linked pages look like this:

http://site.com/blogs/tags/space/page .html/

The trailing slash is present in google as well as the two spaces. What gives???


Here are the blogs tags settings I have currently:

Blog Tags = blogs/tags/[tag]/

Blog Tags Pagination = blogs/tags/[tag]/page[page].html

Do these tag pages work correct on your live pages ?

No. There are spaces in them and a trailing slash after an extension...

If I put a number in them and remove the trailing slash, they do. Also, removing the /page... will work.

Please create a support ticket with an example of url and login information to your site ( admincp , ftp and vBSEO Cp )

Hello,

please try to modify functions_vbseo_url.php file:
find:

PHP Code:

$_vsself = ('blog.' . VBSEO_VB_EXT . '?tag='.$vbseo_arr['tag'].'&page= '.$vbseo_arr34['page'] ); 


replace with:

PHP Code:

$_vsself = ('blog.' . VBSEO_VB_EXT . '?tag='.$vbseo_arr['tag'].($vbseo_arr34['page']?'&page='.$vbseo_arr34['page']:'') ); 


Thanks for the reply Oleg.

I made the change you recommended.

I'm not sure how to test if it worked however. The links in Webmaster Tools are still dead--but, they're junk anyway. Were those pages being crawled because they were in a sitemap; how do I know if the problem is solved?

That's not related to sitemap, the links were included on tags pages, and with fix they should not re-appear. You can check the last updated date for those 404 entries in webmaster account to make sure it's corrected.
