Thanks Smile

The download counter for this plugin has been stuck on 32767 for some time now. It's probably SMALLINT... so it can't go any larger... oh well Sad
Probably because they didn't expect a plugin to be so downloaded Wink

Also, thanks for the update frostschutz.
any known issue with other mods it is bug free??
Hello,

No matter how hard I try, I cannot access my sitemap with Google SEO tools? Could anyone be so kind as to help me?

My forum link is forum.thelonelycomputer.org
However, due to hosting complications, that URL redirects you to forum.thelonelycomputer.org/forum/ Toungue

Thanks in advance.
Your rewrites are not working. Check your plugin status and .htaccess?

Wow, thanks for the fast reply!

My plugin status says this:

Add to .htaccess:
RewriteEngine on

# Some hosts require RewriteBase to make RewriteRules work.
RewriteBase /forum/

# Google SEO workaround for search.php highlights:
# Make this rule the first rewrite rule in your .htaccess!
RewriteRule ^([^&]*)&(.*)$ http://forum.thelonelycomputer.org/forum/$1?$2 [L,QSA,R=301]

# Google SEO 404:
ErrorDocument 404 /forum/misc.php?google_seo_error=404

# Google SEO Sitemap:
RewriteRule ^sitemap-([^./]+)\.xml$ misc.php?google_seo_sitemap=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

# Google SEO URL Forums:
RewriteRule ^Forum-([^./]+)$ forumdisplay.php?google_seo_forum=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

# Google SEO URL Threads:
RewriteRule ^Thread-([^./]+)$ showthread.php?google_seo_thread=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

# Google SEO URL Announcements:
RewriteRule ^Announcement-([^./]+)$ announcements.php?google_seo_announcement=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

# Google SEO URL Users:
RewriteRule ^User-([^./]+)$ member.php?action=profile&google_seo_user=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

# Google SEO URL Calendars:
RewriteRule ^Calendar-([^./]+)$ calendar.php?google_seo_calendar=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

# Google SEO URL Events:
RewriteRule ^Event-([^./]+)$ calendar.php?action=event&google_seo_event=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

However, my .htaccess at the root of my server does have all of those rewrites appended to the end of the file....

What am I doing wrong here?

Here is my .htaccess file:

# Do not remove this line, otherwise mod_rewrite rules will stop working
RewriteBase /

RewriteEngine on

# Some hosts require RewriteBase to make RewriteRules work.
RewriteBase /forum/

# Google SEO workaround for search.php highlights:
# Make this rule the first rewrite rule in your .htaccess!
RewriteRule ^([^&]*)&(.*)$ http://forum.thelonelycomputer.org/forum/$1?$2 [L,QSA,R=301]

# Google SEO 404:
ErrorDocument 404 /forum/misc.php?google_seo_error=404

# Google SEO URL Forums:
RewriteRule ^Forum-([^./]+)$ forumdisplay.php?google_seo_forum=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

# Google SEO URL Threads:
RewriteRule ^Thread-([^./]+)$ showthread.php?google_seo_thread=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

# Google SEO URL Announcements:
RewriteRule ^Announcement-([^./]+)$ announcements.php?google_seo_announcement=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

# Google SEO URL Users:
RewriteRule ^User-([^./]+)$ member.php?action=profile&google_seo_user=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

# Google SEO URL Calendars:
RewriteRule ^Calendar-([^./]+)$ calendar.php?google_seo_calendar=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

# Google SEO URL Events:
RewriteRule ^Event-([^./]+)$ calendar.php?action=event&google_seo_event=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

Thanks for such a great plugin!
The rewrite rules as produced by Google SEO expect to be in a .htaccess in the same folder as the forum itself, so you'll have to put it in the /forum/.htaccess one.

Yes! I copy-pasted the file into /forum/ and it works now, thanks so much!
