MyBB Community Forums

I will see a problem with Google Seo. Earlier today I migrated my forum to a new host. For now everything is fine for me unless I have a problem with Google Seo.

Here I leave an image that gives me the error:

http://i31.tinypic.com/2r2m92q.jpg

Before when visiting a theme, the address appeared to me like this: http://modnationracer.es/Forum-Novedades-y-multimedia

And now I get: http://modnationracer.es/foro-novedades-y-multimedia--5

I would like to appear as my former host. A greeting and thanks!

PD: Sorry my english...T_T im spanish ^^

The mbstring one is kinda bad, can you check your php info? You'd probably have to talk to your host about that one - a new host should be offering PHP 5 with all the bells and whistles really.

The change of URL is due to changes in Google SEO settings. Forum-Novedades-y-multimedia is what you'd get with default settings, foro-novedades-y-multimedia--5 is what you get with lowercase, url enforcer, and changed URL scheme. You'd have to undo the changes to those settings to get the old URLs back.

I've got the host I select "mbstring"

Now I can only figure out how to take away is the direction the (- 5)

http://modnationracer.es/Forum-Novedades...timedia--5

I've been changing the options but I did not the solution ... could help me please? ^ ^

turn off the uniquifier enforcer

This is very strange how I feel ... Suddenly the address:

http://modnationracer.es/Forum-Novedades...timedia--5

I now appear correctly

http://modnationracer.es/Forum-novedades-y-multimedia

But the other way if I display the numbers behind T_T

http://modnationracer.es/Forum-vuestras-creaciones--7

http://modnationracer.es/Forum-general--3

Why? : S. I add an image with the configuration I have now, so you see as I have configured:

The URL of an item is updated when the item is actually accessed.

It would be too expensive to update each item every time a link is made.

Nice to have this mod installed.
Thanks.

Thank you very much Frost for so amazing and useful plugin. Your contribution to the MyBB community is priceless.

I have been reading the whole thread for 5 hours and your patience and dedication on supporting everybody is amazing. Thank you so much.

Also to say that I installed it to my board, I have no problems so far but there is one question I would like to ask. During my reading, there is a part that is not really clear for me to be honest.

On page 67 Rafael stated this:

I Hope you include a Forum ID exclude for the sitemap, this for the Hidden forums

Thanks.

Next to him, you stated this:

I don't understand what you mean.

I didn´t see any reply from Rafael on this (maybe I skipped it) matter, as I would like to be sure Google wont be reading or browsing my private forums. Shall I have to make something extra on the .htaccess? or start using a robot.txt?...if so where to place it?.

Thank you and keep it up.

You have to set up the permissions of your site so that guests / Google don't have permission to access items they're not supposed to be able to see. Google SEO Sitemap already does not include items the user isn't allowed to see. Otherwise it would be a bug.

If for some reason you can't set permissions but want to block search engines anyway, robots.txt is the way to go.
