This is FAQ
Questions: What is required for this mod to work? After translation I get blank page - what is wrong? After translation all text disappear - what is wrong? I have SEO translation links on, I use vBSEO and main page is not translating - what is wrong? What to do, to have translations links good for SEO consensus? I have indexed pages from old translator (with hl=) - what to do? I have indexed pages from old links type (with language=) and want switch to SEO links- what to do? How do you get back to default language after you click a flag? I have warnings in safe mode - what to do? Can I add translated pages to sitemap? Answers: What is required for this mod to work? - You must install it and configure it appropriatelly (please read parameters descriptions carefully) - You must have installed CURL in your php. Most servers already have it. Just install this mod and if it is not working then ask your server stuff to install CURL. In meantime you can disable mod or remove flags so users will not be affected. If you get blank page for translation pages (it will not affect your normal pages) it means that you don't have CURL installed - just install it - You must have installed ICONV in your php. Most servers already have it. If not an error will occur or blank page for translations. After translation I get blank page - what is wrong? Just read answer for previous question After translation all text disappear - what is wrong? 2 possibilities: - You didn't fallow installation instructions. You MUST configure at least Forum language option and Yandex Translation API key. Just configure mod - You set wrong Yandex API key - just set there appropriate value. I have SEO translation links on, I use vBSEO and main page is not translating - what is wrong? First, make sure that your .htaccess rules are OK - especially for forums with subdirectory in URL. What to do, to have translations links good for SEO consensus? You have to set appropriate option in Admin CP and change/create .htaccess file (NOTE: you can use SEO translation links even without vbSEO!) for users without vbSEO - If you don't have .htaccess file then use the one from do-not-upload directory in mod package - just upload it to your forum directory - If you have .htaccess file, then add those lines there: Code:
RewriteRule ^/?(af|sq|ar|be|bg|ca|zh-CN|hr|cs|da|nl|en|et|tl|fi|fr|gl|de|el|iw|hi|hu|is|id|ga|it|ja|ko|lv|lt|mk|ms|mt|no|fa|pl|pt|ro|ru|sr|sk|sl|es|sw|sv|zh-TW|th|tr|uk|vi|sq|ca|et|tl|gl|hi|id|lv|lt|mt|sl|uk|vi|cy|yi)/archive/index.php/(.*)?$ archive/index.php?/$2&language=$1 [L,QSA] RewriteRule ^/?(af|sq|ar|be|bg|ca|zh-CN|hr|cs|da|nl|en|et|tl|fi|fr|gl|de|el|iw|hi|hu|is|id|ga|it|ja|ko|lv|lt|mk|ms|mt|no|fa|pl|pt|ro|ru|sr|sk|sl|es|sw|sv|zh-TW|th|tr|uk|vi|cy|yi)/$ index.php?language=$1 [L,QSA] RewriteRule ^/?(af|sq|ar|be|bg|ca|zh-CN|hr|cs|da|nl|en|et|tl|fi|fr|gl|de|el|iw|hi|hu|is|id|ga|it|ja|ko|lv|lt|mk|ms|mt|no|fa|pl|pt|ro|ru|sr|sk|sl|es|sw|sv|zh-TW|th|tr|uk|vi|cy|yi)/(.*)?$ $2?language=$1 [L,QSA] Edit .htaccess file: Put those rules JUST BEFORE all rules to vbseo.php: Code:
RewriteRule ^/?(af|sq|ar|be|bg|ca|zh-CN|hr|cs|da|nl|en|et|tl|fi|fr|gl|de|el|iw|hi|hu|is|id|ga|it|ja|ko|lv|lt|mk|ms|mt|no|fa|pl|pt|ro|ru|sr|sk|sl|es|sw|sv|zh-TW|th|tr|uk|vi|cy|yi)/$ vbenterprisetranslator_seo.php?vbet_lang=$1&redirected=/ [L,QSA] RewriteRule ^/?(af|sq|ar|be|bg|ca|zh-CN|hr|cs|da|nl|en|et|tl|fi|fr|gl|de|el|iw|hi|hu|is|id|ga|it|ja|ko|lv|lt|mk|ms|mt|no|fa|pl|pt|ro|ru|sr|sk|sl|es|sw|sv|zh-TW|th|tr|uk|vi|cy|yi)/(.*)?$ vbenterprisetranslator_seo.php?vbet_lang=$1&redirected=/$2 [L,QSA] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(admincp/|modcp/|vbseo_sitemap/|cron) RewriteRule ^((archive/)?(.*\.php(/.*)?))$ vbenterprisetranslator_seo.php [L,QSA] I have indexed pages from old translator (with hl=) - what to do? Just set rewrite rule in .htaccess - Google will know that page have new place and will reindex it without any loss Code:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (hl=)(zh-TW|zh-CN|..)$ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1\?language=%2 [L,R=301] First make SEO links available. After that add this rule to .htaccess (before SEO rules): Code:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (hl=|language=)(zh-TW|zh-CN|..) RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/%2/$1? [L,R=301] How do you get back to default language after you click a flag? If you have set tracking option on, then to go back to your default language you must just click flag for your default language I have warnings in safe mode - what to do? Just turn off save mode - it is DEPRECATED in php and not supported in future versions. See here for details: http://us2.php.net/manual/en/ini.sec...#ini.safe-mode Can I add translated pages to sitemap? You can simply integrate vBET with vBSEO Sitemap Generator (it is free) to include links to translated pages into generated sitemap. Please note that instructions below will allow you to add into your sitemap links for threads translated pages. Because of performance reason those links will not be translated - there will be only added language code. Google will find real page anyway since you will get 301 redirect. Please note that it is not best approach - Google prefers to have final links in sitemap not redirecting one, but forcing translation of thousands links in all languages in the same time could kill your server or be threated by Google as attack (if links are not cached yet). If you have any PHP programming skills you can modify instructions below to support also other parts of sitemap - not only threads URLs. Solution below will add translated links only for first pages of threads. Integration instructions: You just have to edit one file: vbseo_sitemap_functions.php in vbseo_sitemap directory. Find: PHP Code:
For SEO links PHP Code:
Also if you disabled some languages in option panel you have to delete its codes too. For links with language= PHP Code:
Also if you disabled some languages in option panel you have to delete its codes too. NOTE FOR SITEMAP INTEGRATION: If you want to add to sitemap also links for other thread pages (if thread have several pages), then additional code must be added BEFORE: PHP Code:
Piece of cake |

Installed and working well, just waiting for VBSEO re-writes to be sorted out and I'll be a happy chappy.
Michael, have you worked out how we can get the new urls mapped in the vbseo sitemap generator? edit. If people want to set the languages as a default, ie; /forum/country/forum.php then put the following into your .htaccess file and select the "Create URL's according to SEO link consensus (i.e. '/en/address')" ooption in Translation links type. please remember that if you use this mod that it is not yet compatible with vbseo3.5 at the moment, so vbseo would need to be disabled, although as that has bugs in it, so I personally have disabled it anyway. PHP Code:
