    Question Excluding path from redirection

    I have a strange problem.
    I use a tiny graphics in my forumhome. It is located in /ubar/

    I set up vbSEO to exclude ^ubar/

    The result is: /ubar/ubar.txt is shown.
    /ubar/ubar.png results in Page "not found"

    Check yourself:

    I don't have a clue what goes wrong here...

    Yes, it is.
    There was no problem until I installed vbSEO. From this moment on it was gone.

    Does it work correctly if you temporarily remove/rename .htaccess?

    I got a solution: I added the folder to the redirection rules (the added text is bold):
    "^(/(admincp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images|custom avatars|ubar)/.*)$" => "$1",

    I don't know if this is the best solution, but it finally works...
