Problem with VBSEO after upgrading VBulletin to 4.2.2

[nima6]

I upgraded our VBulletin software to V4.2.2 and all of a sudden cannot render the admin area pages anymore. I get the following error:

Warning: Non-static method vBSEO_Storage:ath() should not be called statically in ..../vbseo/includes/functions_vbseo_pre.php

VBSEO seems to be out of business too. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Thanks

I know VBSEO is not a product from this website but can anyone offer any advice?

Thanks

The support of vbseo has vanish.

I would like to upload to 4.2.2 but i think, it is not compatible.

Is there a way to downgrade back to 4.2.1?

Officially no, but.

As for reverting, there are no database changes from 4.2.1 to 4.2.2, so you could quite easily re-upload 4.2.1 and it would work.

Ok here is what I would do.

1) Turn your site off.

2) Make a full backup, just incase something goes wrong.

3) Then get a copy of v4.2.1 Pl1 upload those files to your server.

4) Turn on debug mode by adding the following to your includes/config.php

$config['Misc']['debug'] = true;

5) Go to ACP --> Settings --> Options --> Version Info and Other Untouchables, and change ONLY the setting, vBulletin Version Number to 4.2.1

6) Turn off debug mode by removing the following to your includes/config.php

$config['Misc']['debug'] = true;

7) Remove the install directory.

8) Turn your site back on.

Now you will be upgraded to v4.2.1 and not have to worry about the 4.2.2 and PHP errors.

THANK YOU

is anyone using VBSEO with vb 4.2.3?

[final kaoss]

With all of it's security exploits and it no longer being developed, no. Plus, there is no way to legally get vbseo now if you haven't bought it in the past. If you have a spare copy with your purchased license key lying around, go for it, be a target for hackers.

I wonder how many other old vBSEO threads mykkal is going to unearth. Be warned everyone: mykkal does not want to hear that vBSEO is a security risk. He's quite touchy on the subject. I start to wonder what his real interest might be...

vbseo has many security issues DO NOT USE IT
