Go to Last Post Not Working

I am running vbSEO v3.3. when a thread has multiple pages I get the following problem.

When I am on my main forum page and click on the "Go to last post" icon, it takes me to the first post in a thread.

However, when I enter the forum itself and then click on the same "Go to last post" icon, it works perfectly.

This only happens when I have vbSEO turned on.

Ideas?

Hello,

does it work correctly on stock vBulletin style?

Like I said, this only happens when vbseo is turned on and only affects threads that have multiple pages. I had v2.2.0 and it was doing the same thing. I turned off vbseo for about 2 weeks and it was working perfectly. I upgraded to 3.3.0, hoping that would fix it, but I am still having the same problem.

What is an example URL that is not working correctly? I tried a few on your homepage and they worked fine.

I think I figured it out. I think it was not vbseo, but another mod I had running. I updated it and it seems to be working. Sorry for the false alarm.

No problem, I'm glad you got it resolved!

Well, it seems I was wrong. I still have a problem. when on the forum home page, I click on the "last post" link (when multiple pages are involved), it takes me to the first post in the tread and after about 5 or more seconds, it forwards to the last post.

When in the sub-forum that the post is in, the "last post" link takes me directly to the last post.

Here is what I found out.
when vbSEO is off, the link on the forumhome looks like this.

Code:

http://www.christianfunforums.com/forums/showthread.php?p=384065#post384065

and the link on the forumdisplay looks like this

Code:

http://www.christianfunforums.com/forums/showthread.php?p=384065#post384065

As you see, they are identical.

When vbSEO is on, the link on the forumhome looks like this.

Code:

and the link on the forumdisplay looks like this

Code:

As you can see, they are NOT identical. The "last post" link on the forumdisplay, actually goes directly to the last post. This is what the "last post" link on the forumhome is supposed to do as well.

How do I make them both identical?

It should be working correctly, can you please try to "Rebuild thread counters" in vB admincp->Maintenance.

I just went to the ACP | Maintenance | Update Counters" and pushed the "Rebuild Thread Information" button. Is that what you meant?

After doing that, I still have the exact same problem. Again, should not the "last post" urls be the same on the forumhome and foprumdisplay?

Yes, it should. Please open a ticket with ftp/admincp access for troubleshooting.

I will do that

Update: there was incorrect URL format defined for "'Go To Post in Thread' Redirect"":

Code:

[forum_title]/[thread_id]-[thread_title].html#post[post_id]

post ID should be in URL part and not in anchor (that is not sent to server with request):

Code:

[forum_title]/[thread_id]-[thread_title]-post[post_id].html
