2.3 to 3.5 Upgrade - Archive Issues with Google
I have a fairly active forum that has been a long time needing an upgrade from 2.3.0. I finally did the upgrade last night to 3.5.3. One of the issues I'm having is that the site was heavily indexed by the search engines... primarily into one of the old Archive hacks. Well now I'm getting a ton of database error messages coming from this because the search engines are feeding people to the old "search engine friendly" archive. Any ideas how I can either redirect these inbound folks to the correct location in the new archive, or just to the forum index page if that is possible. I'd like to avoid people getting an error message. I'm probably losing a ton of visitors because of this situation, and my email inbasket is loaded with error messages.
Here is the error you get when calling one of these archives... Quote:

The new 3.5.3 version uses this url for the same archived thread... I tried inserting a redirect in CPanel for http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/showthread to http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/archives/index.php and it isn't working. It will work if I don't have there is no filename.html on the end, but not with it. Anyone know how to do the redirect to fix this? |
