Check page 8 of this thread for a post by amykhar.

I will try and update the file sometime soon to reflect all the bug fixes and additions that people have contributed.

That was me asking that same question back then :); but it didn`t do anything to my board, so I ask again ;)

oops.. sorry :ermm:

I'll make a commitment and promise to find a solution this week. I promise to have something by next Wednesday.

I could make use of that feature myself actually.

Thanks!, that`s great fastforward.
But I see now that amykhar got it working, maybe you could test it, maybe it`s just my site.

I use htaccess, it would be great if you find a solution!

Thanks,
Haakon

how do you force everyone to use cookies?

I've added the new rewrite rule and deleted the sessionhash from the templates, but in the users online section I can still see some users browsing with sessions :ninja:

cheers!

You can't force them to use cookies, they can block them on there machine if they want to.

I realise that......however googlebot is at my website now but in the online users sectinos its showing up as http://www.cyclingforums.com/f26?=fa...0b43e091389c38 rather than http://www.cyclingforums.com/f26

Most users are showing with the short url.

cheers!

Cyc, the googlebot gets a little confused the first month, so you might experience that it crawls both rewritten urls and normal ones. At least it did this with my site the first months, but it won`t hurt you.

If you take a closer look at the sessionhash in unknown urls then you will find its your sessionhash and doesn't mean that the googlebot has one.

Has anyone set this up so guests get the rewritten urls and members get the normal urls? is this even possible?

cheers!
