vB Drupal CMS, Search Engine Optimization (SEO) · **Released**: 10-06-2005

This is an addon module for vB Drupal: Community Plumbing

This addon should work for both vB Drupal versions, the 3.0.x version and 3.5 version.

What does it do: This module will automatically generate search engine optimized links to your vB Drupal content.

vB Drupal by default has two options that make it search engine friendly, custom path alias, and clean URL's.

This module extends those options by enhancing those clean URL's by adding text. For example, a blog entry titled "The meaning of life", will generate an auto link in the index as "mysite.com/The_meaning_of_life". It will also map user id's to user names. So instead of /blog/2" it will become "blog/tamarian" etc.

The pathauto module from Drupal will not work with vB Drupal, this modified version allows it to work with your vB Drupal.

One major change from the original module is that it will not scan your entire user table, only users who have content. This avoids timeout issues, and optimizes the performance by only generating links to users who have content.

Orginal source: http://drupal.org/node/17345

License: GPL

Installation: Unzip and upload the entire pathauto directory to your vB Drupal module directory. Activate the module in your module settings, and configure the settings/pathauto page. Note that you should also activate the path module, they need to work together.

Tamarian, this mod is giving me problems when I attempt to delete a category. The category does delete, but I get taken to an error page:

Code:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: path_set_alias() in /server/database/site.com/drupal/modules/pathauto/pathauto_taxonomy.inc on line 104

where 104 reads:

Code:

path_set_alias('taxonomy/term/'.$category->tid);

Have you disabled the other module "path"? They both need to be activated.

Wait, they both need to be activated, or "path" needs to be disabled?

They both need be active together, as pathauto requires path

Success. Thanks!

I've added a note in the instructions, as it's easy to assume pathauto is a replacement to path, not a compliment to it.

Thanks for this. I've got it installed and both path and this enabled. I'm unable to generate the user/1 to user/name or blog/1 to blog/name scenario.

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