vbRanking revised

You might know the vbRanking plugin for vBulletin 3.5.x. (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=95265)
This one is a complete rewrite.

The plugin will regenrate links to a new format (e.g: showthread-goto_newpost-t_27730.html).
Webspiders, like the GoogleBot, will then parse the whole page and generate better search indexes from your forum.

• does correctly handle "all" arguments
• Less RewriteRules, less preg_replaces
• Should do better performance-wise.
• Only regenerates links for GUEST (i.e. all spiders)

Requirements

• vB3.5
• mod_rewrite
• No active vbRanking from other vendor(s).

Usually the hack author reserves the first reply for his own use later on. By simply stating "Reserved!" it implied you were saving the post to be edited for information at a later date, which as I stated is a semi-common practice here.

I made a bad by making a Reserved post. No big deal. My intentions were not intended to be anything other than Reserved for later use. I wanted to be sure no one else had errors as a result of using this hack first.

You are right, i clicked, and typed Reserved when i could have used the subscribe button. I certainly didnt mean for anyone to fall to peices over it. If i have offended anyone, or broken any rules by making that post, i extend my apologies and promise to never do it again. testnutzer123, i am sorry this thread got so off topic -

Warning !

vBRanking V1.1 was a fine Products (even if it does not work correct with 3.5 !).

This Version here does create a 500 Servererror. Funny - because vBRanking 1.1 and other Software for Rewriting runs without problems.
