I have tried numerous times for awhile, but now I realize that its something I really need to fix to improve SEO. I have tried several plugins and used the automatic / enabled the friendly url setting in mybb, but it always breaks the links to all the threads.
I have read tutorials and they suggest to disable no follow and such, and different combinations to try of settings, but nothing seems to work.
One of which plugin is called "SEO Links! (1.1 Beta 1)"
I pasted this data in my .htaccess file as suggested:
and here are my settings:
Add nofollow? No
Force redirects? Yes
Force Lowercase Keywords Yes
Case compatibility? Yes
URL Type: Using keywords
Directory structure: No
SEO User's Links? Yes
Strip common words? Yes
Max Keywords Control: Yes
I would greatly appreciate any ideas and feedback, thank you very much for your time
