First of all, the "three simple rewrite rule examples" in the vBSEO post (discussed earlier) do not rewrite (undo) all the VBSEO URLs in various search engine indexes.

Whoever above said "you only need these simple rules and nothing else" .. that poster is wrong.

For example, if you were using vBSEO to rewrite your forums titles, and your forum was (before vBSEO):

Code:

/showforum?f=111
and after vBSEO it was:

Code:

/this-is-my-forum-above/
... and you have many forums, there is no way to have a single mod_rewrite rule to for the forums.

Each forum will need a rewrite rule similar to this:

Code:

RewriteRule  ^this-is-my-forum-above/$  /showforum?f=111 [R=301,L]
So, if you had 100 forums using this scheme, you will need 100 rewrite rules under this same scheme.

Please, do not be "fooled" by those who think a few simple mod_rewrite rules will work for all vBSEO configurations in all forums!

.. if you were running vBSEO and just used a few simple rules, simply go look at your access log file for all the 404 errors (simple example below), and you will quickly understand what I am talking about.

Code:

tail -f access.log | grep " 404 "

If you were using a vBSEO schema with the forum number in the URL, then you can do it with one rule, for example:


Code:

/this-is-my-forum-above-f111/
You can get by with a rule such as:

Code:

RewriteRule  ^this-is-my-forum-above-f([0-9]+)/$  /showforum?f=$1 [R=301,L]

vBSEO had many different configurations, and many people did not use the forum id in the vBSEO URL.

If there is a lesson to be learned here (and there are many), is to make sure you use the forum ID (or thread ID, etc) in our "friendly URLs" because if you don't have unique ids in your "friendly URLs' then you will have trouble to undo them if something like this happens again (you need to revert back).

Cheers.

I was using forum id numbers just like Vbseo used to have.

Now my issue is the characters that appear after the url's such as my forum--

forum.php#axzz2jy7qTEM3

I am using Vb mod rewrite--standard canonical - using ignore for unicode now but have tried various settings..

Here is my htaccess.. Is there any way to fix this or does it even matter? I have been using Vbseo for years up until recently. I do remember dealing with this issue years ago but cannot remember details.

Hello to all now I would like to do, because I had problems with the forum and I have to delete it all however I pay for a license that I don't have the vbseo software right now, please can you help me to know where can I download the software vbseo? or tell me how can I get my money back?
Thank you very much to all.

ozzy47 11-17-2013 01:41 PM

There is no place to download it since the site closed up. How long ago did you purchase it?

adonato 11-18-2013 11:33 PM

Hello, I did buy it 11/21/2012

What should to do? I want my money back because they must have the software active to download up to they sad to us , I mean now I payed something that I won't have any more I can't bealive because I thought that the software will be available as the page did show us, however don't know why but now my page was hacked and when I upload all again, just a few days a go... I don't have the VBSEO. Now what to do? please did some one ask for money back?

In my country we use Argentine PESO so... Ten Pesos is one dollar... so I saved a lot of money for buy that license.

What to do please help me.

Simon Lloyd 11-19-2013 01:04 AM

Unfortunately this isnt the place to air your views, you'll need to find out how to contact the owners of VBSEO like Crawlability President, Juan Muriente or ask advice from their estranged partner http://admin-talk.com/members/ilia-vbseo.8156/ but in all honesty i don't think you're going to have much luck! :(

Edit: you could try:

If you used a credit card, or paypal, issue a charge back for non delivery.

There will be no further versions of vbseo (none for vbulletin 5, for example); there will be no further support from vbseo.

As I said - vbseo is dead. It was dead when I posted last year, and it continues to be dead.

I'm pretty sure paypal has a 6 month window on that, the op's purchase was well over a year ago. :confused:

RichieBoy67 02-28-2014 02:14 AM

I am not sure PayPal would be too helpful with this type of a purchase anyways.

I really think Vbseo could have handled this closing in a much more professional and honest manner. I am disappointed to say the least.
