What does this modification do?
This modification will allow you to automatically have more search engine friendly URLs in your vBulletin. A forum which would normally display as forumdisplay?f=1 will now appear as f1-forumtitle.html and the same with threads. Having keywords in your URL can be of an advantage in search-engine ranking.

Requirements:

• You must have mod_rewrite apache module enabled on your server. Contact your host for more information.
• This will not work well for non-english boards as it strips most non-alpha numeric characters. E.g. ? would be stripped on french boards etc

When you have a thread more then 100 pages this hack causes a lot of troubles. This is why i am trying to uninstall this. If the last page is 220 and you click from thread name it will not take you to page 220 instead it takes you to page 2.

Lizard King, go into your .htaccess file and remove any instances of &pp=10 (temporary fix).

[COsborne]

yeah, even if the thread is just something like 29 it will send you to page 2

It's been mentioned/discussed earlier also - I disabled this system until that little bug is squashed as it did indeed drive people crazy. Still, I have to commend Dean C for all the (constant!) support he continues to give, it's nice to see it take place.

[COsborne]

I've left mine up in case someone needs a testing platform. I ran through it once and didn't see the source of the bug but I wasn't very thorough.

[Dean C]

I see what you mean vau. I know how to fix it, but I'm almost positive I've fixed that before. Ah well, will fire off a fresh version to you in the next few days

Coundn't find an answer. Does this provide a 301 redirect?

No, old threads will be redirected to the new URL format (R=301) in the next versions.

[COsborne]
