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. |

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 Fillip |

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