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:

Like you can see product takes about +10ms per request.

Live Demos

AdminCP Demo:

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.

These are the instructions.....

#Rename this file to .htaccess and upload it to the root directory of your forum.

....this is what I did. Is there something else that I need to do to that file for this mod to work properly?

Also, I had a question on URL Structure. Should we use .html for this option? I've already tried both that and directory and neither work.

[TheProphet]

Is this bug fixed in the upgrade version:

Example:
Open a forum and click under the threadname on the threadposter.
I will link to: forum/f2/member.php?u=1 and will give u a page 404

[EarnDollars]

Installed and looks work well.
However, every rewite link includes the words "edit-this-from-admincp-than-forum". Is that right..?

They are keyword that you must set for every forum.
AdminCP > forum > forum manager > edit forum
