    Is that even possible ?

    I would like to use now vbseo on one of my other forums. HOWEVER, a lot of people using the current URLs in signatures etc.etc.

    I activated one day and my inbox was full of complains that their links / favorites are not working anymore.

    Is it possible to use vbseo but make the threads still accessible through the old links like

    /forum/forumdisplay.php?f=101

    ???

    Yes, the old links will continue to work.

    What is the message shown when you try to go to an old link?

    Never mind .. It is actually working. Is it possible that it wasn't with an earlier version ?

    Well, thanks anyway

    Strange. 301 redirects for old dynamic URLs to the new static URLs was a core feature of the very first vBSEO release.
