Long thread titles won't load

[jnrdavo]

ok, I'm getting closer in solving this one...

It seems that when you click on a thread or post, it includes the thread id AND the thread header in.... not sure why...


If I remove the thread header and just have the post ID, it works...

EG:

http://www.ozaudi.com/forums/showthr...I-install-them

compared to me just typing in:

http://www.ozaudi.com/forums/showthread.php?28609

....which works fine.....

Any ideas how to turn this off so it doesn't include the thread header ?

Have you checked with your host to see if this is a mod_security issue on their end? Like I said, it works fine for me on my site.

[jnrdavo]

no I haven't, not sure what to ask them :-)

The same content worked fine in vbuleltin 3.8..... had to upgrade the other day as we got hacked badly (actually removed the sql database!), so it was time to upgrade...

I've actually got 4 other boards with the same probelm. They were upgraded many months ago, some were new boards, but all with the same issue......

It's got to be a setting somewhere, just need to find it :-)

I just made a thread with the tile:

2004 Allroad - Relay clicking noise from glove box and flat battery :-( )

and clicking on it takes me straight to the thread. Is this happening on another page in the thread?

Just on this one... If I try and change it inline, it comes up with a 404 error....

I was getting these errors also and it turned out they needed to whitelist me on some mod_security rules.

[jnrdavo]

ok, thanks. I'll check with the hoster and see what they/I can come up with.

Many thanks for your help :-)

[Boofo]

Please let me know what you find out from them.

Can you post your ".htaccess"

[jnrdavo]

respone from hosting site:

im afraid we dont permit adjustmnents of the php.ini file anymore on a site by site basis

having said that the memory limit is 96Mb and Max Post size is 32Mb and there should be no need for any higher values


They did give me the option to upgrade the plan to my own VM instance where I can change the details.

.htaccess reads:

<ifModule mod_expires.c>
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 seconds"
ExpiresByType text/html "access plus 1 seconds"
ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 2592000 seconds"

ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 2592000 seconds"
ExpiresByType text/css "access plus 604800 seconds"
ExpiresByType text/javascript "access plus 216000 seconds"

Most of the top stuff added today to see if it would help.

i was just reading this over ...where it is showing the post name ..that looks like eithersetting in vbulletin 4. I have seen vbulletin 4 built is seo cause issues. I would shut that off first or change how it is behaving. I would do this before i would do any .htaccess rules.

it is in vbulletin options - server setting and optimization settings

I would actually go there and set friendly urls to standard urls and see if that fixes your issue. I think it will..

If not it is one of those settings in friendly url or somewhere in that section.
