Hello,
   I installed google seo and fixed other errors but still have this one. I hate to put it in the wrong spot.
Can anyone tell me where exactly?

Google SEO (1.8.3)
Google Search Engine Optimization as described in the official Google's SEO starter guide. Please see the documentation for details.

• Add to .htaccess:
  RewriteEngine on
  
  # Some hosts require RewriteBase to make RewriteRules work.
  RewriteBase /
  
  # Google SEO workaround for search.php highlights:
  # Make this rule the first rewrite rule in your .htaccess!
  RewriteRule ^([^&]*)&(.*)$ http://team------.com/$1?$2 [L,QSA,R=301]
  
  # Google SEO 404:
  ErrorDocument 404 /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:

  # Google SEO URL Events:
  RewriteRule ^Event\-([^./]+)$ calendar.php?action=event&google_seo_event=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
  
  
  
  
• URL is passive. Apply changes to core files to activate.

• 404, Meta, Redirect, Sitemap and URL are enabled. (Configure)
  
  
  
• Click to Apply changes to core files.
  

That's not an error, it's how the plugin presents information. On the last line click apply to apply the changes to core files.

I did that then when I click on anything from the homepage it goes to 404 error page

When you get the 404 error it is normally one of two things: You either did not enter the code in .htaccess, or alternatively the file (.htaccess) is named wrong.

U need to click Apply to code changes to finalize all

I did not change my .htaaccess yet. That's here I was lost.
I am not sure where to add it in or what I delete from my current. See below

I did apply changes and then that is when I got what I am getting now the 404 error code but I didn't change my htaaccess yet which is above but I am not sure what or where to change.

Add:

	# 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]

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

just below:

RewriteEngine on

Ok I tried that and it is still not going to proper pages. index is there but when you click on anything from there it goes to error page

after making above changes you should rename htaccess.txt -> .htaccess

note there is no file extension for .htaccess

Got it. Thank you guys for all the help
