Works great except it gives the [replacer a] error and kills any banner adds that have the keyword to link in them. Not sure if you uploaded a new one yet or not but I had to disable it until it ignores keywords within a code.... bbc or html.

Hello Martin, congratulations for your Mod, it's excellent.
I have this situation for you; I am testing your Hack and I use last version of vBSeo.
As default settings, vBSeo - Seo Functions -Internal rel="nofollow"s has:

1) Add rel="nofollow" to ALL Sorting Links (Yes)

Enable this option to prevent search engines from following links to pages with the same content, but sorted differently. These pages might be tagged as "duplicate content". Therefore, we recommend enabling this feature.

2) Add rel="nofollow" to ALL Dynamic Pages (Yes)

Enable this option to prevent search engines from following ALL dynamic links. Some examples are: 'Post Reply' links, 'Quote' links and 'Quick Reply' or 'Search' links. These pages have non-relevant (or "noise") content which should not be indexed by search engines , resulting in better SEO.

3) Add rel="nofollow" to Links pointing TO Member Profiles FROM Postbit (Yes)

Enable this option to prevent search engines from following links to member profiles found in posts.

4) Add rel="nofollow" to Links pointing TO Member Profiles FROM Forumhome (No)

Enable this option to prevent search engines from following links to member profiles found in your Forum Homepage.

----------------------

Now, if I leave this settings and I try to create a new auto linker keyword with your Hack I have this, from a source code of a page:

Example word : CMS

<a rel="nofollow" onclick="replacer_hook(1)" target="_blank" href="http://www.mysite.it/">CMS</a>

vBSeo suggest in the description of points 1 and 2 to keep enabling the option to "Yes" but in this way
each keywork create with your system has the "nofollow" tag.
According to you, what is best advice to resolve this situation?

Thank you

Right the auto links bit looks awesome

I installed it and all my URL old rewrites are now bad to normal Vb ones?
What did i miss here?

Hi,
I'm new to the forum world (owner instead of user anyway) and have a site that will go live in a month or so. I see a lot of reference to the SEO Forum and wanted to know if someone would educated me on what it is, what value I would get from it and if I really need it for my site and forum.
Thanks in advance!!

This plugin is incompatible with 4.0.4. Fix please and upadate

What version is that?

[jay5r]

I installed the software and found that if the targeted text was in an existing link it would mess things up - the original link would be corrupted. I notified the developer of the problem and he said a new version was pending. Then I never heard back from him. I've contacted him twice and received no reply.

I have purchased a Gold version from seoforums.org, but when I installed it I found that the version is not a brand free.

I posted a complaint on their forum and its being more then 10 days but no reply form their side.

Your Purchase No.: 67

Kindly remove their link form Vbulletin.org
