What about my urls say that? vbSEO really isn't installed on our local test machine. vbSEO doesn't effect the database does it? I thought everything was stored in an xml file?
I know vbSEO was installed on the old site (that I'm trying to merge). However, vbSEO is also installed on the live site, and the live site sql dump that I merged worked fine. It was when I merged the old DB in that things got messed up.
Everything is stored in the database, not an xml file.
In default vbulletin, you cannot enter into "/announcements" - that would not be a valid URL. You would need to be using vBSEO in order for that to be a valid link.

Okay, so the databases probably have vBseo on them, but my TEST site doesn't have the plugin installed. Should I install it?
Installing vbseo does not just involve importing an xml file. I suggest you read over on their site exactly the steps you need to take to install it. You will need to have mod_rewrite enabled on your localhost in order to use vbseo.
