vB Drupal CMS, Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

This is an addon module for vB Drupal: Community Plumbing

This addon should work for both vB Drupal versions, the 3.0.x version and 3.5 version.

What does it do: This module will automatically generate search engine optimized links to your vB Drupal content.

vB Drupal by default has two options that make it search engine friendly, custom path alias, and clean URL's.

This module extends those options by enhancing those clean URL's by adding text. For example, a blog entry titled "The meaning of life", will generate an auto link in the index as "mysite.com/The_meaning_of_life". It will also map user id's to user names. So instead of /blog/2" it will become "blog/tamarian" etc.

The pathauto module from Drupal will not work with vB Drupal, this modified version allows it to work with your vB Drupal.

One major change from the original module is that it will not scan your entire user table, only users who have content. This avoids timeout issues, and optimizes the performance by only generating links to users who have content.

Orginal source: http://drupal.org/node/17345

License: GPL

Installation: Unzip and upload the entire pathauto directory to your vB Drupal module directory. Activate the module in your module settings, and configure the settings/pathauto page. Note that you should also activate the path module, they need to work together.

Check you apache error logs, and the watchdog logs in drupal admin, they may give a hint.
