Major Additions - Zoints SEO

********Please do not use this modification unless you are VERY well educated on SEO and forum modification********

Zoints is a company that believes that forums are the killer application of the internet. We want to empower forum owners to take their community to the next level. Therefore, Zoints has been developing an extremely powerful vBulletin forum SEO and revenue enhancing solution for more than two years now. However, because we are focusing on our Forum Network and Thread Tagging System, we have decided to release this SEO solution to the vBulletin community under the lgpl license. Zoints SEO is now open source and NOT supported by us. We hope that the vBulletin dev community comes together to take this already powerful solution and make it even better. Empower yourselves

Zoints SEO can be discussed here or http://network.zoints.com (again, we will not be providing official support).

2. index2, index3 pagination breaks some things. Standard p2, p3 works fine.

So once this is installed, and vBulletin releases a new version, will there be any problems upgrading?

[project-Buckfas]

All I can say is WOW! I had this installed since the day it was released. It has worked wonders!

Thanks DChapman!!

Just like any other hack, you overwrite everything...

Hot damn..... finally find a decent SEO for vB for free only to get shot down simply because we use vBA-Links/Gallery

[tyler_d]

this add-on is amazing, I had no issues with install... it worked just as the instructions said. I am on vB3.6.0 and my URLs are now Search Engine Optimized just as good as they would've been with the encrypted & $150 vbSEO.

So glad this free add-on was released and DChampman finally fixed the bugs!! Happy camper here!

Installed and really liked it apart from

Zoints SEO is currently incompatible with:
1. Incompatibility with vBA Gallery link.
2. Incompatibility with vBA Links

Then uninstalled it. Trouble is, the forum it is installed upon is fairly active, and is rendered untennable because of the incompatibility, so any time delay between install/ticket submission/repair would make it not a viable proposition

[flindersredclaw]

Very cool.

However, clean install on 3.61 clean

options like dynamic guest message has no [edit][delete]
same for the dynamic permission message.

also is it ok for the keywords to be added and followed by f11 or f45 or what ever?
