ErrorDocument 401 /401_forum.php Not Working on vb 3.8.2

a bug found in these scripts: by default they don't modify http header your server gives out with the page so for any of these errors the header will contain 200 OK instead of corresponding error. found this accidentally while trying to find out why google doesn't want to authorize me for my website. :)
this is easily enough fixed by adding the following line near the top of script:
change 404 not found to corresponding error for each file. works for me, at least google stopped complaining. :)

Installed, works perfectly :)

Do I put header("HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found"); near the top of the file "404_forum.php"

Sc00by22,

i'd recommend you to do so. in my experience, 404 is one of the most important error codes and giving out 200 OK when a page is not found can be very misleading for search engines. their crawlers don't actually read pages content, you know, they rely on http status codes.

Nice, thanks.

I get a white page with the http errors on it...

Can someone tell if this should be after <?php or before?

Same here.

is this going to be modded for vb4.0

Will this work on vbuleltin 4 series lol
