MyBB Community Forums

Update: It's compatible with MyBB 1.4 now.

It's a not so advanced Search Engine Optimization (SEO) module that does quite a lot, while offering the easy to use plugin format (No need of all those changes in your files..!). As with the most of the SEO modules, this plugin relies on mod_rewrite and thus works only on Apache webservers. This module utilizes the new rel="nofollow" of the search engines, instead of enforcing a couple of complex (and sometimes stupid!) rules to block out SE access to certain pages/urls.

This plugin also utilizes robots.txt with separate rules for googlebot making use of regex supported by googlebot, while still offering more generic rules for other search engines.

Want to read more? Sorry, I am feeling lazy to write more, but you can borrow a good book from any public (and outdated) library in your area, to satisfy your reading requirements. (err, nevermind, that was a bit off the top)

Nice to see that it goes forward with this plugin.

But a question: where is .htacess?

You need to create an blank .htaccess.
And since he didn't wanna write more you can always find info at wikipedia

There's one already on my server. But.. I can't see it when I access my server with IPSWITCH PRO. So what now?

Well if you got an copy of it on your computer you can always change it manually and add these lines.

# //seo_mod_start
RewriteEngine On
# Uncomment the following and add your forum path if rewrites arent working properly
#RewriteBase /mybb/
RewriteRule ^index.html$ index.php [L,NE]
RewriteRule ^(.*)-t-([0-9]+).html(.*)$ showthread.php?tid=\$2\$3 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)-t-([0-9]+)-([0-9]+).html$ showthread.php?tid=\$2&page=\$3 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)-f-([0-9]+).html(.*)$ forumdisplay.php?fid=\$2\$3 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)-f-([0-9]+)-([a-z]+)(-|-[a-z]+)-([0-9]+)-([0-9]+).html(.*)$ forumdisplay.php?fid=\$2&sortby=\$3&order=\$4&datecut=\$5&page=\$6\$7 [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)-a-([0-9]+).html$ announcements.php?aid=\$2 [L]
# //seo_mod_end

@all, who get errors
you must load the mod_rewrite.so

in httpd.conf add

LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

You would also have to add

AddModule mod_rewrite.c

under:

ClearModuleList

in the same file.

Installation was a breeze for me.

Thanks for releasing this!

Good to know that IMPAQ ..

Just enable the plugin, it will try to write to the .htaccess file in your forum root directory and if it fails, it will give you the code to add in your .htaccess file.

I am using site map should I erase it from google sitemap
