Major Additions - TfSEO 2: the free vBulletin url rewrite

TfSEO 2.1

TfSEO is a powerful and free url rewrite for the vBulletin system: it rewrite forum, thread and post urls.
For me it's very hard to explain well all the feature of this plugin, soo the best way is test it.

How much does it weight on the server?

I have tested on my home server:

TfSEO enabled, heavy:

        These results are probably not that reliable.

You should easly put your .htaccess in the forum root, soo: xxx.com/forums/.htaccess

Are you not able to fix the cron image issue? I think it could have a bad effect for the scheduled tasks if it's not fixed...

I looked on your own forum and it doesn't appear you fixed it in the new release... For example, this thread: http://www.techforum.it/f53/problema...n-gioco-t1208/ makes a call to: http://www.techforum.it/f53/problema...hp?rand=191417, which doesn't exist. There is the same problem when viewing other pages that are using rewrite (forums).

I'm having a problem on New Posts. If I click the link to go to the most recent post on any multi-page thread the link goes to the first post of the thread (Post 1 Page 1). Any hope of rectifying this?

Running vB3.7.0

Note: If I enable Last Page in ForumHome then the links work from ForumHome...what can I do to get that functionality on the New Posts page?

Same here :S

Also, in my case if I enable "last page in forumhome" I got PHP errors in the home page of my forum.
