Question .htaccess

[utilityop]

I didnt use vbseo and today i just brought these awaresome plugin that i wait for very long
i not very familar with how the rewrite rule work so is it possible to attach the .htaccess
rewritten rule code here for url rewirte ,i read the readme text but was confused

Add the following code to your .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine On

# If you are having problems with the rewrite from content/ to content.php, uncomment this line to turn MultiViews off.
# Options -MultiViews

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(admincp/|dbseocp/|modcp/|cron|mobiquo|forumrunner|api\.php)
RewriteRule ^((archive/)?(.*\.php(/.*)?))$ dbseo.php [L,QSA]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !/(admincp|dbseocp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images)/
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ dbseo.php [L,QSA]

 

[utilityop]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !/(admincp|dbseocp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images)/


so if i changes my modcp and admincp path i should modify it

 

[Fillip H.]

That's correct, you should

 

[utilityop]

just installed it but cant get it running
everything is linking to
/forumdisplay.php /showthread
but no post content path shown
i try to uninstall it and the forum become messed up

 

[Fillip H.]

If you've uninstalled the mod, you need to also remove the .htaccess rules.

Let me know if you would like assistance making the mod work instead; if so PM me with an FTP and AdminCP account

 

[Fillip H.]

Your server does not appear to have mod_rewrite support in Apache, please contact your host for assistance if you don't know how to enable this yourself.

previously i been using vbseo which was uninstalled very long ago and the rewrite rule was working on my side
so what i guess is my .htaccess file ,is it possible i get a full working .htaccess file instead of just the code

 

[Fillip H.]

Here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jn6qgdq4y4ghw0f/.htaccess

 

[utilityop]

ok i find the problem is the setting >friendly url>mod_rewrite url

once i choose and enable that option is shown the link corrently but then
the link was not redirect correctly all the link was redirect back to /forum.php
on .htaccess i try to uncomment the multi view but still not working

 

[Fillip H.]

That option should be set to Standard URLs in order for DBSEO to function correctly.

 

[utilityop]

i tryed for a few day but still yet to able to get it working ,any help if possible ?

 

[Fillip H.]

The login information you sent me previously appears to no longer be valid. Please PM me with the updated information for the AdminCP account and FTP account.

 

[Fillip H.]

Your server is still generating 500 Internal Server Error notices when a .htaccess file is in place.

Please contact your host, as they will be able to tell you the real reason behind this error by inspecting the error logs. Also direct them to the .htaccess file (temporarily renamed .htaccess.bak) so that they can test it for you.

I had the same problem. Just read this thread and use the htaccess provided.
To solve my problem i just : remove default htaccess from vBulletin.
Replace it by the one you provided.
This information should be showed in the documentation, because what i understand when i read it is simply upload your mod and install it, remove support rewrite engine from vB but nothing about the htaccess.
Why don't you provide it in the zip file ?
I will play with it to see how it works now
Thanks !

There is a file named "Readme.txt" in the zip. All the info you need on how to install including info on the .htaccess file is clearly stated there with step-by-step instructions.

Hi,

\*======================================================================*/

DBSEO requires at least vBulletin 4.0.2 (vB4) or vBulletin 3.8.x (vB3)
It will not function correctly in vBulletin 4.0.1 because of a bug in that version.


/*======================================================================*\
|| 3. First Time Installation / Upgrade ||
\*======================================================================*/

1. Upload all files from the "upload" folder to your forums directory.

2. Import the product-dbtech_dbseo.xml file from the "XML" folder at
AdminCP -> Plugins & Products -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product

3. Edit your .htaccess file and -EITHER- replace all instances of "vbseo"
with "dbseo" -OR- add the following to your .htaccess file:


RewriteEngine On

# If you are having problem with "None Could Be Negotiated" errors in Apache, uncomment this to turn off MultiViews
# Options -MultiViews

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(admincp/|dbseocp/|modcp/|cron|mobiquo|forumrunner|api\.php)
RewriteRule ^((archive/)?(.*\.php(/.*)?))$ dbseo.php [L,QSA]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !/(admincp|dbseocp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images)/
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ dbseo.php [L,QSA]


4. (vB4 Only) Go to AdminCP -> Settings -> Options -> Friendly URLs
and set the "URL Type" to "Standard URLs".

5. That's it! You can start editing settings and setting usergroup permissions.

6. The Admin controls can be found at /dbseocp/ - NOT in the AdminCP!

My comprehension is : vBSEO user need to edit the htaccess file to make some changes
I'm not a vBSEO user so i don't edit the htaccess file, it's not very clear sorry.
Regards,
Olivier

-EITHER- replace all instances of "vbseo"
with "dbseo" -OR- add the following to your .htaccess file:

Either / or meaning: If you are a vBSEO user, edit the file and make certain replacements. If you are not a vBSEO user, add code to the file.
