Remove vBSEO and 301 redirect old url's to mod_rewrite URL of vBulletin 4?

[ikopylov]

Now my Google Webmaster is near 2 decade forums
at all was installed and removed vbSEO
I opened the first available:

External links to your site - 9000

Another - vb4

External links 19000

Tselarius, I think you are mistaken in asserting this:

For anyone looking, here is a tool to help configure redirects after removing vbseo..

If you haven't removed vbseo yet, you can upload your config file and get all the rewrites you need with very little work.

Sorry, I have no idea what you are trying to tell me, your english (google translator?) doesn't make much sense. My guess is you do not really understand what I'm saying. I do not say that redirecting is not important. It is. Redirecting forumdisplay is not important compared to showthread.

This works great for the forums but doesn't redirect article links in the CMS. Any thoughts on what I should add to .htaccess to go from:

http://saabworld.net/content/stromqvist-extreme-saab-1026/

to:

http://saabworld.net/content.php?r=1026-Stromqvist-extreme-Saab

I wouldn't mind going from vBSEO URLs to vB Mod Rewrite Friendly URLs instead of the standard vB uRLs. Would you first convert from vBSEO URLs to Standard vB URLS and then add the MRF rewrite rules to the .htaccess file?

Cheers. Went to the site but unfortunately it isn't currently reachable. Does anyone know if the script is available elsewhere?
