Done. Let us know how it works out.

Thank you very much. Can you please tell us what the bugs are and will doing this mod potentially disable the forum?

No guarantees on disabling the forum. Some people have it working fine. In my forum, the go to last post feature doesn't work neither does the merge threads.

Dani's mod-rewrite works like a charm. I just installed it on 3.0.7. I recieved no error whatsoever. Just take your time and read all the post on keith's update and the 2 changes made on .htaccess and the backslashes that's it. You just got to read the posts.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought Dani's mod DOES NOT change the URLs to the topic name (as the phpbb mod I posted above does)?
To me (and more importantly, Google), that is probably one of the most important/useful features.

That's correct. I had Dani's working fine on my board. However, it does not put the thread title into the URLs as does Keith/Ted's.

Once I implemented Keith/Ted's, Google began to index me well. With some keywords, I've moved into the second search page. That's not bad for me. The problem is that Keith/Ted's doesn't seem to be working in a couple of key places for me.

Is it just not working for you, or is the hack/mod not finished yet?
As you can tell, I have a great interest in this hack/mod. :squareeyed:

Many of us do. It works for some and not for others. I don't know why yet.

it changes the url to the forum name and the thread or topic name, separating the words with hyphens. yesterday, my forum recorded 243 spiders in less than 24 hours after i installed the mod-rewrite. Forget those $300 SEO kits. this is all you need.

If it is a perfect mode why nobody is trying to fix it out ?
