MyBB Community Forums

Thanx Koyote

Same problem here...
Hi I just install MyBB 1.6.8 and Google SEO 1.6.3.
I followed the tutorial How to install MyBB Google SEO for MyBB for better SEO.

the .htaccess has been done without plugin warnings

but when i try to test error 404, it gives me the default 404page of

Not Found

The requested URL /forum/cat was not found on this server.

when i try the forum links, the url is seo.
eg http://www.tutoriz.com/Forum-Rules

but I get the below page

Not Found

The requested URL /forum/Forum-General was not found on this server.

disable google redirect and google SEO and the forum is back alive with address http://www.mydomain.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?fid=3

one thing still not working even when deactivated the google seo is that the calendar is stuck pointing at /forum/Calendar-Default-Calendar

Not Found

The requested URL /forum/Calendar-Default-Calendar was not found on this server.


I tried without google SEO and used the built in Enable search engine friendly URLs? option enabled and it also gives page not found error.
I used the MyBB .htaccess for that testing.

is there something I am doing wrongly since the built in SEO is not working also?



my .htaccess code is

RewriteEngine on

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

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

please help me what is going wrong....

Your posting is confusing as to which URL your site should be using.

You have mentioned http://www.tutoriz.com , http://www.tutoriz.com/tutoriz , http://www.tutoriz.com/forum ... which one is it?

Please choose one and stick to that. Also make sure it's identical to MyBB's bburl setting.

For example for the first, RewriteBase should be / not /tutoriz/ etc...

it is http://www.tutoriz.com/tutoriz

http://tutoriz.com/Thread-How-to-Install...pid=1#pid1

but I want it as
http://tutoriz.com/Thread-How-to-Install...-windows-8

The ?pid=123#pid123 is necessary for post links, you cannot remove it without losing the ability to link to specific posts... ?pid=123 opens the correct thread at the correct page, #pid123 makes the browser scroll down to that post. It's how MyBB post links work...

There's an example file for nginx included in the Google SEO package. You'll have to adapt it on your own…

Hi

I'm trying to set google SE on my forum and I have that lovely 404 Fatal error ...

[undefined=undefined]http://www.famille-solo.fr/mybb/Forum-ouest?google_seo_redirect=debug
Apache/2.2.14 (Ubuntu) Server at www.famille-solo.fr Port 80[/undefined]

I tried all the seeting there as possible
The .htacess looks ok

I wonder what to do to set that

Ok the bad side in french we have accents ... I puted the translaition in the SEO ACP board ..but doesn't work
I made a forum with no accents at all, the same thing...

What should I do?

Thx

www.famille-solo.fr

http://www.famille-solo.fr/mybb/index.php

Accents shouldn't be a problem. It also works fine with German äöüß and Japanese ひらカタ漢字.

The board should be using UTF-8 though. I'm guessing that something went wrong there on your board since e.g. on http://www.famille-solo.fr/mybb/forumdisplay.php?fid=10 I see thread subjects like "Message privé", and isn't é supposed to be an accented character? My French is a bit rusty...

Other than that the main reason for 404 is problems with the rewrite rules.

I too have the same problem. I downloaded the Google SEO 1.6.3 plugin.
My Main Blog URL is http://www.revealingthestuffs.com/

And I installed MyBB 1.6.8 on my Subdomain : http://forums.revealingthestuffs.com

When I click on The categories , ex: http://forums.revealingthestuffs.com/For...e-yourself. I get an Error like:

Not Found

The requested URL /Forum-Introduce-yourself was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I have updated htaccess file like this:
RewriteEngine on

# Some hosts need a RewriteBase specification.
RewriteBase /

# Google SEO 404:

I want the URL of my Forum like- http://forums.revealingthestuffs.com/For...e-yourself without 404 error. Please suggest me how to fix this 404 error.

Thanks for your reply

Yes I had a problem importing the forum from Phpbb and the accents did a bit messy thing ...all the titels with accentts I'm writing them back ..
Thats why I dit a forum with no accents at all to check that point:

The requested URL /mybb/Forum-forum-sans-accents was not found on this server.
Apache/2.2.14 (Ubuntu) Server at www.famille-solo.fr Port 80

I have a file named: translate.php.french.php
where would you put it ?

I tried:
Google Seo Plugin On +Server setting "active search engin nice URL " Enable + "active search engin nice URl in archives" Enable = Not working
Just plugin on =Not working
Just server setting on and plugin Off = not working ...

the .htaccess
