Question Forums Not working after install

[ringnews24]

The writers staff room is taking me to the forums staff room.

Boxing Forum

Admin room is working again.

 

[Fillip H.]

This is because you have two forums with the exact same title, and no forum ID in the URL.

Please correct this issue and then flush the DBSEO system cache.

Boxing Forum
http://www.ringnews24.com/boxingforum/ringnews24-staff-room/

Seperate urls now and I flushed the forums cache and the DBSEO cache, but still the same.



Also

If you put the term 'boxing forum' into Google, we are always found on page 1 or 2. Now we are on page 6 with no description, since enableing the SEO. This link is showing 301 Moved Permanently previously this link would show Boxing Forum with a description.

How would I also sort this?

I am no longer able to replicate this issue on your forum.

This is because when going to ringnews24.com/boxingforum, it redirects to a search:

Search:
Type: Posts; Excluded Forums not On Recycle Bin; New Posts

This is not the fault of DBSEO, as it does not contain such a feature.

Please disable this behaviour if you would like to repair your SEO.

When you click this link http://www.ringnews24.com/boxingforum/ringnews24-staff-room/ what do you see?

How would I disable the search?


Cheers

When you click this link http://www.ringnews24.com/boxingforum/ringnews24-staff-room/ what do you see?

Forum: Ringnews24 Staff
Welcome to the Ringnews24 forum's staff room.

with Staff, Admin and Recycle Bin subforums.

How would I disable the search?

You or someone on your team enabled it in the first place, I don't know how to disable it.

I will look through your settings and see if anything sticks out, but if I can't find it then you will need to ask your other admins.

Thanks m8

I am the only one who touches the admin panel and I didn't do it. Was fine yesterday, today not.


When you click the link it should be showing

- - - - RN24: Writers Room
- - - - RN24 Credentials: Apply Here
- - - - RN24: Articles & Interviews
- - - - Editors Room

Update: I have resolved the search issue on your forum. Someone had altered the settings in the Navigation Manager to make "Recent Posts" the default tab.

 

[Fillip H.]

Update 2: The forum name issue is because, because "room" is a stopword, so you still have an issue of duplicated forum names.

Please either remove "room" from the stopwords, or amend your forum URL rewrite format to include forum ID. We strongly recommend adding forum ID to the URL rewrite formats for this reason.

We got rid of the activity stream and replaced with show recent posts.

That was done about a year ago, We have a tab on the forum called recent posts. Now that doesnt work...

 

[Fillip H.]

That tab is still working perfectly fine for me.

 

[ringnews24]

That worked, thanks Fillip H..

Just the problem on the the navbar now, how do I add recent posts back?

Will that effect /boxingforum ????

 

[Fillip H.]

The Recent Post tab is still there and is still working perfectly fine

 

[ringnews24]

When I click it I am getting this

https://tmpdmp.com/i/fa870ee7547d710b/e40470305d95dcd0

 

[Fillip H.]

In that case you probably don't have any unread posts. Have you tried clicking the link it offers you?

 

[Fillip H.]

Update: I changed your tab from getnew to getdaily in order to bypass the need to click that link.

 

[ringnews24]

Thanks for all your help Fillip H..

Thats brill, really happy its all sorted out now.

 

[ringnews24]

Several members still cant get on the site, I turn the seo software off and they can log in.

Can someone look into this for me please.

 

[Fillip H.]

Can you please be more specific? What do you mean, can't get on the site? Is there any error message? Is there some output in the error logs? Is there a way to reliably reproduce this issue?

 

[ringnews24]

They said when they hit log in and they get a white screen and are unable to log in. But when I turn SEO off everythings ok.

Ill try get screen shots and more info from the users.
