this thread with vbseo url english font:
http://www.alwatanyh.com/forum/f6/just-test-38040/

it works in translate

but for example this :
http://www.alwatanyh.com/forum/f6/%D...6%D8%B1-36699/

it will not work , this is occur only for threads
but for groups ,blogs and other which use vbseo and arabic font in url , it will works with them

so this issue related to showthread links

It looks like google has been indexing my translated pages. I noticed a strange thing though; google is starting with non-thread pages. Does this mean googlebot isn't sticking around long enough to index the thread pages?

Not exactly... For example - this not working url from my forum which was copied by yahoooh has polish letters (like ść).

Just check yourself

Yes And it's working great on my forum for a long time - for threads links.

I wass discussing this with vbSEO stuff year ago. I found the topic - Here it is:
http://www.vbseo.com/f3/wrong-tag-links-26223/

They don't remove special characters from tags links. But tags links are coded fine with % notation. I wrote wrong before, confused by included link, but as I see on my forum links are ok in tags cloud.

Where did you get this wrong link yahoooh?

Hello Cahe issues are my part here Just please find in translate.php:

/* 
  if (!mysql_ping()) {
    mysql_close();
    establishConnection();
  }
*/

And uncomment it (remove /* and */). Error will disspear

Dave - please correct it in next release - DON'T - see post below

[NLP-er]

After consideration - Dave don't change it. I remember now - I commented it with a reason. I didn't expect this error in this place, so I commented reestablish code for performance reasons (shouldn't have big impact, but if not necessary...).

So right now who doesn't have this problem just have good working mod, ant who has - can just uncomment mentioned code. Maybe when more people will note same issue there will be good moment to include it in release. Right now it's first complain since I made reestablish functionality, so it is rare and I would stay with commented code in official release.

Reestablis is neded after google translation (before inserting to cache) and there it is uncommented by default

Hi As I see mod creates appropriate lins, but clicking clicking vbSEO is rediredting to url without hl param. You can see it by copying adress from flag image - there is hl param. But when you paste it to broswer and send, then hl pram dissapears.
I think that vbSEO makes 301 redirect. Talk with vbSEO stuff.
