Redirect forum.php to / and category name in title
 

I have one forum using VB 4.2.0 Level 2 + VBseo plugin on subdomain forums.mysite.com
I want to do the following:

1. Homepage and 301 redirects to avoid duplicate homepages
Now the homepage is http://forums.mysite.com/forum.php
The page http://forums.mysite.com/index.php is redirecting to http://forums.mysite.com/forum.php
The page http://forums.mysite.com/ is redirecting to http://forums.mysite.com/forum.php

I want logo and header navigation links to homepage to point to http://forums.mysite.com/
Also, i need http://forums.mysite.com/index.php and http://forums.mysite.com/forum.php to redirect 301 to homepage http://forums.mysite.com/
How i do this?


2. On thread meta title i want to add dinamycally the forum category name
I have a thread in Home->Red_Category->Red_Subcategory->Thread

To be like this <title>This is my first thread - $Red_Category - $Red_Subcategory</title>

I have modified Customize Template: SHOWTHREAD with $Red_Subcategory and is ok{vb:raw GLOBALS.foruminfo.title_clean}

How i need to put to show $Red_Category ?

Thanks
