    Some post show up in archeive type format while other don't

    Alright while something strange has occured on my board. This specific thread shows up really weird.

    Thread

    However the rest of the threads in this area do not have a problem. At first I thought it was from an archive but it doesn't appear as that is the problem. Mainly because you can see it from the sub-forum that it belong in

    Sub Forum

    The thread title is: D&B Giraffe Print!

    I have:

    Disallow: /forum/printthread.php

    in my robots.txt file. I also edited the vBSEO setting in the ACP to disable mod rewrites for print threads (see Oleg's last post in the thread referenced earlier).

    Then you should change the folder name in the robots.txt file (in every Disallow: line) to match the folder name where you have vBulletin installed.

    In my case since it's in public html it should just be "/"
