Google SEO itself is able to redirect back to original URLs. ( https://github.com/frostschutz/MyBB-Goog...stock-urls ). So worst case you'd have to keep a MyBB 1.x install around in a subdir, and point the Google SEO rewrite rules to it, and redirection will work. Although I'm sure that if there's interest, someone will just copy the relevant bits of Google SEO code to make a dedicated redirector for MyBB 2.

Even if you ported over the entire Google SEO plugin to MyBB 2, the URLs would still change. It's a new forum software, the structure will be different and with any luck, it will support things like directory structures that MyBB 1.x did not.
so what's the correct action for people to do who are currently using google seo with mybb 1.8.X?

fair enough. I'll keep chugging along then... Cool
We need:

testdomainname.com/topic/31323-test-name-topic/

This is the best for seo and virtual catalogs.
Considering there are features here added in 2015, many of these should be included in 1.8 or 1.10 if it's going to be released soon. Otherwise these may see the light of day in another couple of years.
