    vB SEO Breaks Photopost URLs

    For some reason, vB SEO is trying to rewrite my Photopost URLS. I have no CCR for it, or .htaccess. It was working fine before I installed vB SEO, and it works fine when I disable vB SEO.

    Suggestions? How would I add it to the exclude list? I'm not familiar with RegEx.

    that's not vbseo...

    that's photopost's internal rewrite.

    There's an option for it in the photopost admin panel.
    do you have the htaccess file in the photopost folder?

    I run photopost as well and have 0 special rules to disallow vbseo from it.

    No, it is coming from within vB SEO. When I delete the vB SEO .htaccess file, Photopost Pro works. When I reenable it, it quits working again.

    There is no .htaccess file in the photopost folder.


    The line that is the problem is:

    Code:
    #RewriteRule ^(.*\.php(/.*)?)$ vbseo.php?vbseourl=$1 [L,QSA]
    When I disable only that line in my .htaccess folder, Photopost Pro works.


    I had to change this line:

    Code:
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(admincp/|modcp/|chat|cron)
    to:

    Code:
     RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(admincp/|modcp/|chat|cron|photopost/)

    Placing a .htaccess file in your PhotoPost directory with this line in it will also work:

    RewriteEngine Off

    I was having a similar problem with a new PP-Classifieds install I just did, this suggestion seems to have resolved my issue.
