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:

For Support and question you can contact me at davide {at} techforum .it

This product will be updatefor long time, I welcome (and really do ask for) any feedback, suggestions, issues, etc...

If you install it, click install.

Note: vbulletin will have by default a rewrite system from version 4.0 (beta should coming next month, april). I relly suggest you to wait, and not use this product. If the vb's rewrite will be great, i will no more update this product.

Thanks! a cool mod!

[maidos]

also when i view a thread, it always direct me to the first page, cant u make it so it goes to the latest reply/page

[superjeff]

For this you can use the "last page" icon, something like
Or edit the automatic rewrite. The new major version will have an option to decide this from the cp panel

Thank you

Maybe the next version can change the way forums are re-writen? So instead of f50 we have forum name 50.

Example:
Forum name is Announcements and forum ID is 3, it will re-write at example.com/announcements-3/

And maybe another thing. Instead of having the example.com/f#/topicname-####/ it can be example.com/f#/topicname-####.html and for pages it be example.com/f#/topicname-####-page-2.html?

These are good idea's in my opinion. Plus spiders would live to see forum names instead of f## because when you do site:example.com all you see is f## for urls.
