How do I make it so that my forums and subforums display as names like domain.com/announcements domain.com/news?

Currently all the forums show as domain.com/forumdisplay.php?f=*number*

Thanks

Ah ok. I believe that vBSEO does this, but it's a hefty price. Specially for a new forum like my own.

Anyway, I might be wrong, but I'll await for someone to reply.

I know it's possible anyway, as forums I use have this function.

Yeah..
Its a feature of vBSEO, the URL Rewrite.
You may wait till the vBulletin 4 release. It supposed to have some built it SEO Features.

Damn that product for being so expensive lol. I have however downloaded something called Zoints Seo. I will back up my forums tonight, test and report back to those interested.

It's free btw

You can try Zoints SEO or even C-Logic SEO if you can't afford it

Just an update I tried Zoints SEO and got it working a charm. If anyone wants to see it in action www.generalgamerz.com

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
