Removed vBSEO - How To Redirect Members & Groups?
 

I removed vBSEO from the forum and used the suggested rewrite code for threads and it works
Unfortunately i could not get forum members and groups rewrite to work, any ideas what i could try ?

http://www.site.com/members/user-5.html to http://www.site.com/member.php?u=5
http://www.site.com/groups/new-group.html to http://www.site.com/group.php?groupid=1

This is what i have now in the .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule [^/]+/([0-9]+)-[^/]+\.html http://www.site.com/showthread.php?t=$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteRule [^/]+/([0-9]+)-[^/]+\.html http://www.site.com/forumdisplay.php?f=$1 [L,R=301]

Redirect 301 /forum/subforum http://www.site.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1
Redirect 301 /forum/subforum/subforum http://www.site.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2

Might hit up Joe (BirdofPrey) he helped me with some custom redirects after I removed vbseo on one of my sites.

Unfortunately groups can't be redirected being as there is no ID number in the URL.

If your VBSEO was setup to actually put a userid in the URL for your Member's profile pages then you are really lucky because I've never seen a VBSEO setup that actually did that- and without the userid in the URL you would be out of luck there too.

However given the example URL you provided:

Try this rewrite rule

If that's not it, it's close. If you can post an actual link it might help if I need to fix it.

It works ! Thanks

Could you please show me something similar for forums ?
Right now i have a working rule for showthread and members but forumdisplay is not working

I need to know what your old link looked like. An example would be great.

Here is an example:

Thanks

Again, if there's no id number in the old links there's no way to do an automatic rule.

I suppose you could add a rule for every single forum you had but it doesn't seem efficient-

If you wanted to though as an example;

The thing is that after the last changes i started getting white pages on Firefox and Opera but not IE or Chrome. Any ideas why?

White pages on forum links or any page?

Have you checked the php error log?
