Dropping vBSEO: How to do the 301 redirects on Large vB 4 Forum?
 

After the fall of vBSEO I have a client that has to drop it because of a recent vB upgrade throwing errors. How do I go about doing the 301 redirects for vB after I uninstall vBSEO? Is there an easy way to do this? There are tons of members, tons of forums & tons of posts that would need a redirect at this point.

Depending on your urls there are easy ways that can be found from Vbseo's instructions.
If you have more complex urls then do what I did. I had the same issues and hired Ikopylov

He did a thorough and great job. I had many thousands of server errors caused by broken urls after dropping Vbseo and I just am not proficient enough with Htaccess to take care of it myself.I spent hours and hours doing redirects and he was able to take care of things much faster and better.

Not exactly what you asked but this may help you in the meantime...

The pro version of this new mod will import the now defunct vbSEO settings and allow the site function as it was prior to vbSEO breaking, the lite (free) version you'll need to copy the vbSEO settings over yourself:

I was wondering how long it would take for someone to post that. lol

Thanks for the info I'll check it out and see.
