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.

Like you can see product takes about +10ms per request.

Renaming .htaccess to htaccess_new the 500 server error should disappar.
You should try to edit the .htaccess file until it work.. have you ever tried to use another .htaccess? Plus, some hosting, don't accept it!

[onespot]

i own my server - ... you want me to rename .htaccess to htaccess_new with no . ?

This was to "disable" the 500 error. If the server is your, take the line in the .htaccess and add it in the site apache site configuration file, something like the httpd.conf, in the virtual host.

What about my request?

thanks in advance!

The only way is the file modification of tags.php!

[onespot]

meh - decided to get rid of this and now it says

Fatal error: Call to undefined function tfseo_url() in /home/onespot/public_html/forums/includes/class_postbit.php(260) : eval()'d code on line 1

[nascimbeni]

I am getting the following error
Fatal error: Call to undefined function tfseo_url() in /var/www/vhosts/lifeinitaly.com/subdomains/my/httpdocs/includes/class_postbit.php(260) : eval()'d code on line 1

So I had to disable the product

[superjeff]

Have you upload the functions_tfseo.php in your ./includes/ directory?

Let me try:

On ForumHome if I click "Go To Last Post" button on a thread with >1 page the url becomes something like: <Thread Name>/page2.html#postXXXXX and the link works correctly (taking me to the last post on whichever page is last)

However when I click New Posts and look at the URL for that same thread it appears as: <Thread Name>/#postXXXXX which results in the first post on the first page being displayed.

So my question is how do I get the ForumHome URL's (which work) to appear on New Posts as well? I noticed that the ForumHome links changed when I enabled ForumHome in the TfSEO options in AdminCP so I was wondering if there's a way to make this work for New Posts?
