Purchased the pro this morning. But is there a step-by-step tutorial available for those switching from vbseo to dbseo? Sounds silly, but I?m a little bit afraid of breaking the whole site. Do I have to deactivate vbseo before importing and activating the dbseo plugin? The readme.txt is a little short on informations about that :erm:

talk to the devs on their site they will install it for you if you are not sure what to do

Thanks for the hint. WILCO.

Actually, I really think that it would be great if there's is how-to guide for switching from vBSEO to DBSEO. For free and for paid version.

I know there's importer in pro version and also that it could be done (up to some level) with free version (given here also), but there are some steps that we should follow, like disabling mod, editing .htaccess file, uninstalling.

If DBTech would post it in first post here and make it sticky on DBTech's site, it would be really appreciated.

There's a lot of us with vBSEO and speaking for myself, I'm planning to switch to DBSEO in one moment or another. Guide like this certainly would ease many of my worries and speed that process up. At least for me.

Support is fantastic. Very open to making improvements.

Thank you for your kind words, Joe :)

I hear you both, and in the next version, the Pro version will come with a dedicated readme.txt file with the step-by-step instructions for how to import from vBSEO to DBSEO.

For reference, I'll post the instructions here, even though the Lite version is lacking the vBSEO Importer step:

1. Upload the contents of the upload folder to your forum root

2. Open the .htaccess file in a FXP editor, comment out the vBSEO entries and add the DBSEO entries as per the readme.txt file, but not saving the file just yet

3. Disable vBSEO from the vBulletin Products & Plugins

4. Disable vBSEO Sitemap Generator from vBulletin Products & Plugins

5. Import the DBSEO product

6. Enter the DBSEO Control Panel via the ACP side menu link, click vBSEO Import and wait for it to complete

7. Save the .htaccess file edit from the FXP editor

8. Confirm that Forum Home, Forum Display and Show Thread pages load as intended

9. Chmod the ./store_sitemap folder to 077

10. Enter the DBSEO Control Panel via the ACP side menu link, click Sitemap Settings and enable sitemap generation

11. Click the Build Sitemap link and wait for it to complete

That would be a good addition, Fillip. Unfortunal I'll have to check back with you guys tomorrow since the importer run into some problems on my site and I had to go back to vbSEO for now cause wether the 301s nor the start or forum pages were reachable through SE results.

For now: is DBSEO supporting the showthread rewrite as [tld.com]/[threadID]-[threadtitle].html ? That's the format we use now for about 10 yrs and DBSEO doesn't seem to support that without a forumID or title. May be I'm actual suffering a temporarly blindness but I haven't found a setting for that.

DragonByte Tech 01-08-2015 07:42 PM

I don't see a reason why DBSEO wouldn't allow you to have such a format.

If you PM me @ dragonbyte-tech.com with FTP and AdminCP information I can look into it for you. Please supply the details of what URL formats are not displaying as intended (include all of them, if you know of more than just that one) and I'll resolve it :)

Great, I'll hit you back tomorrow morning at dbtech. May be I'm just barking at the wrong tree, regarding the settings.

:up:

Marv 01-09-2015 10:38 AM

I recommend to test the migration from vbseo to dbseo on a testserver. I haven´t and - due to custom settings and I guess own misconfigs - my site crashed. My fault (!) and I have to wait for DBTech to have a look at it.

Don´t make that mistake, too.

Marv 01-09-2015 03:27 PM

About to bite my ass that I´ve tried to switch. Half site broken, can´t revert to vbseo, still waiting guess til hell freezes. Fed up for today.
