If you have vbseo still installed then disable it and see if it fixes your problem, Then check to make sure your .htaccess is there and has the correct VBSEO info in there.

If you have removed vbseo then again check the .htaccess and ensure that all vbseo data is removed.

its showing me this in vbseo all files
vbseocp.php File does not contain expected contents
vbseocpform.php File does not contain expected contents

Is this the same problem you had a week or so back? I thought you fixed it.

[Mark_Zuckerberg]

Replaced all the affected file but still getting this error

Not Found

The requested URL /f18/how-to-install-linux/ was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

also changed the your domain.com to my own one but now the home page goes fine and when i go to any category or thread it gives error like some css error see the screenshot and then i have turned off vbseo and it works fine :( please help

[blind-eddie]

I would suggest that you go to where you got vbSEO & discuss it there, they will be more helpful than I regarding SEO.

but its gives this error when i open thread


Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/xxx/public_html/includes/class_postbit.php(304) : eval()'d code on line 194

but its gives this error when i open threadWhat editor are you editing files with?

[Mark_Zuckerberg]

I Have Not Edited Any File In That Coz My Site Was Hacked Or Affected With Malware And I Have Downloded My Backup From My Server And Then Uploded It To New Server And Imoported The Databse In It And I Use Notepad++ To Edit Files?

[blind-eddie]

As I stated to you in your other thread on how my site was infected with a trojan..... you need to make sure your computer is not infected or any other computer you may have used & is still running. If your site was infected through your computer and you have not gotten rid of it you are going to have this problem again and again.

Note: I told you how I was infected & what I did to fix it. This may be different then what is happening to you and how you may have been infected.

On another note, I don't use note pad to edit files, I use word pad and from what I have learned over the years, word pad is what you should be using to edit files.
