go to my site and open any section.. It's a really weird error how would I fix that?
Did that and it's still doing that.
I dont see anything wrong? Do you have a screenshot?
i think the problem solved
It's not a really weird error. You installed Google SEO installed and you still have the default .htaccess file in place. Google SEO needs a set of rewrite rules in order to prettify the URLs. If they're not in place, it will obviously throw a 404 error page. Read the plugin documentation, everything is explained there.
Ya I figured it out, I wanted to add google SEO.. So that is what was causing the problem.. Think anyone can help me install google SEO over TV? (Team Viewer)
Oh ok so that makes a lot of since.. Ok so can some write up that .htacess folder so I can just copy and paste it instead of screwing it up? I would really really appreciate that...
Like I said, Google SEO has pretty good documentation. It should be pretty easy to follow. Use it.
What the crap I just added all the code here is waht I got:

But yet it's still doing that error.
You have to change all instances of /MyBB/ and http://yoursite/MyBB/ to match your forum's structure. In your case, you'd use this:

# EXAMPLE .htaccess FOR MYBB WITH GOOGLE SEO URL
# -------------------------------------------------------------------
# This file is identical to MyBB's htaccess.txt example file,
# with rewrite rules for a standard Google SEO install added.
#
# Before using this file please make sure to:
#
#   - replace /MyBB/ with your forum folder, e.g. / or /forum/
#   - replace yoursite/MyBB with your forum URL
#   - name the file '.htaccess' (starting with the dot, no .txt)
#
# Alternatively you can add the required rewrite rules to your
# existing .htaccess, the specific rules required will be displayed
# on the plugin status page once Google SEO URL is enabled.

LOL I'm so new to mods on mybb LOL...

So what do I need to do? Maybe someone willing to help me?
Did you replace the code within that file with what I provided you? Did you rename that file to .htaccess? (with the dot in the beginning) If so, that should have worked. If it's not working, however, then you're missing more steps. I don't think you read the documentation as I told you.
