Also according to actual Google conditions your "Powered by Google" information should have Google logo. So please change text for flags in your vBET configuration to something like this:

Automatic Translations (Powered by <span style="vertical-align:sub;"><img src="http://www.google.com/uds/css/small-logo.png" alt="Powered by Google" border="0"/></span>):
You can customize it but "Powered by Google" should stay.

- Little optimizations (i.e. included only necessary things for not translated pages)
- Supports several cache cleaning strategies (optimization for really big forums) and automatically disables cache for cleaning time to avoid read/write conflicts
2.2.1 Small bug fixed with returning to default language for main page and SEO links (happens only for specific vbSEO configuration, so you don't need to update if 2.2.0 is working for you)
2.2.0 Translation tracking is working even when redirection by some mod occures (configurable reaction time)
2.1.0 9 new translation languages added! Also:
- Redirect to user language functionality - configurable (disabled, forced, after asking user does he want to be redirected).

On the beginning or on the end? It gives different results.
Just read first post where it is clearly described:
Above all rules to vbseo.php put this rules

I suppose that it can be pain in the ass if you don't fallow the instructions, but in this case it is your choice to have pain in the ass...

Just read carefully FAQ and all mod options descriptions You miss it and complain. Just take attention of what you are reading.

Also PM me if you still have a problem

I leave out the first ones because they are stable, in German.
So if you see: .co.jp, com.ar, co.jp - thats the result of this mod.
Also the AdSense spider read this pages, but, on my side, the search engine spider is 10 times faster than the Adsense spider and Ads sens will update the ads after he see the access also form that regions.
So the Addsense graph is more flat but following the same direction.

So once again thanks for that mod.
Christian
You are welcome

my idea would be to have the drop down option, then the flags, and then the flags language shown after it:

FLAG - USA

possible?
Flags are generated by templates, so everyone can customize the look according to its own requirements. Just edit 3 templates for flags and use custom place

FLAG - USA - just override the gif with England flag and that's it. The description says what is the language, and in USA it is still English.

Details please. Give me link of your forum. Also if this happens then most probably it have nothing common with vbseo. This mod have functionality to obey redirections and what you describing can be a bug in this mod. Once again - please give me exact link where it happens.

I have one question.

The main language of my website is Chinese. It also includes some English for company names, or product names. When the mod translate my website to the other languages, it translates both Chinese and English. Can I translate only Chinese part and leave English unchanged?

Thank you!!
It is very easy - just use not translated areas. See list of features in mod description for details

Thanks for the answer
Automatically in 3.0.0 - this version is in progress Also when it will be ready, you will still need to make changes in existing posts. It will be automatic for new ones according to users default language, and it will allow to even write in many languages in one post (I have it already working).

Installed on my testforum! - looks like a very intelligent mod

Just a quick question: I am considering running this for the time beeing on my testforum only. So question is - is there a method to omit the source language pages from Google search results on the testforum, to avoid duplicate content?
