Miscellaneous Hacks - [Script] 301 Redirect after ImpEx imported forums

Today I want to introduce a script produced by Federico Nuzzo of TGSDevs for 301 Redirect after ImpEx imported forums .
So it makes a 301 redirect url from Old -> New url.
It works if you have installed vBSEO or not.
This script has been tested to the redirect the imported phpbb3 urls to vBulletin 4.2.1.
It should also work for VB3 (since the DB structure is identical).
Should be enough rename the files to make it work with SMF and MyBB.
The script does the redirect of the forum and topic screens.

You must compile this

    $mysql_hostname = "localhost"; // localhost or IP address
    $mysql_username = ""; // user for MySQL
    $mysql_password = ""; // pass for MySQL
    $mysql_database = ""; // database used for vBulletin installation
    $mysql_prefix = "vb_"; // prefix for vBulletin tables
    
    $vBulletinURL = ""; // Sample: www.myforum.com

Once you have filled just upload the files to the root of the old forum and will be done automatically from the old url to the new 301.

PS: Sorry for my bad english

Any possibility to get a version for attachment.php working as well? (vb to vb import). Need to redirect old attachmentid to importattachmentid when attachment.php is requested on old site.
