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).

[HaYLaZ]

[DJ PİSAGOR]

Instead of "www.forumena.com" it came out "www.forumena.com/?"
can you help me with fixing this.

I waiting for your help. Thank you

[Orcun]

Well well,

This Addon seems quite good looking. I've installed this on my site. It works fine except some cases.

1)

$string = str_replace("?", "Ue", $string);
$string = str_replace("?", "ue", $string);

This code doesnt re-write the Thread links. I Still have - for the Turkish characters.

2)

Archieve has problems I think.

Chech out HERE and click on a link. It will bring up the 404 Not found error. Couldnt figured out what had caused that.



I would be glad If I receive help
Thanks

1-) Open the file /includes/function_zseo.php and search for this

PHP Code:

$string = unhtmlspecialchars($string); 


add below:

PHP Code:

   $string = str_replace("ı", 'i', $string);
    $string = str_replace("ğ", 'g', $string);
    $string = str_replace("?", 'u', $string);
    $string = str_replace("ş", 's', $string);
    $string = str_replace("?", 'o', $string);
    $string = str_replace("?", 'c', $string);
    $string = str_replace("Ğ", 'g', $string);
    $string = str_replace("?", 'u', $string);     
    $string = str_replace("Ş", 's', $string);
    $string = str_replace("İ", 'i', $string);
    $string = str_replace("?", 'o', $string);
    $string = str_replace("?", 'c', $string); 


2-) Diğer sorunun cevabını bilmiyorum Ayarlarına bi bak istersen.
i don' t know other problem

[Orcun]

Yep, I did it but doesn't work either. Saolasin kardes..

Still have - instead of turkish chars.

Btw, After enabling mod_rewrite, my sitemap returns to itself when I click a link..

[Orcun]

Yep!

Chars work now. Pisagor, pay attention to use of " and ' in the code.

Correct usage is

	$string = str_replace("ı", "i", $string); 
    	$string = str_replace("ğ", "g", $string); 
    	$string = str_replace("?", "u", $string); 
    	$string = str_replace("ş", "s", $string); 
    	$string = str_replace("?", "o", $string); 
    	$string = str_replace("?", "c", $string); 
    	$string = str_replace("Ğ", "g", $string); 
    	$string = str_replace("?", "u", $string);      
    	$string = str_replace("Ş", "s", $string); 
    	$string = str_replace("İ", "i", $string); 
    	$string = str_replace("?", "o", $string); 
    	$string = str_replace("?", "c", $string);

Thank alot again.

Btw, Archieve is still not working
