Hello, not sure where to accomodate these questions so please apologize if I am posting in the wrong section.

Just signing up and opening a thread here has been a breeze. I have extensive experience with discuss, phpbb and a few more scripts and I can tell that this one is looking good.

My 2 inquiries are as follow:

a) I want to fully integrate this script/forum to my wordpress blog (signature). Is this possible, not just by the look and feel (I assume adding headers, footers and css will make the forum blend) but also by sharing the same regsitration login/pass for users.

b) I haven't found specific information on search engine friendly urls and seo issues but looking at this forum I see this has been taken care of. Is it a mod, a plugin or the forum rewrites urls out of the box?

Thanks.

2. Yep, what you see in use here is available by default, there's also this if you'd be interested: http://mods.mybb.com/view/google-seo
Thanks!
What a pleasure this forum script is (yes, will donate)! It really works great just out of the box. And it has so many features... Ok, just wanted to share what I did. It took about 4 hours of tweaking.

About the only thing I could not do, was to play with its .htaccess to redirect /index.php at the root of the forum to /, to prevent duplication of the index. Also, I noticed a few urls are keeping the ? like on the "help" section and similar. I am roboting out those to make it simple. Finally, I wonder if it may also be important to robot out the "archive" section so that Google and others do not create duplicates.

What do you all think?


Glad you like it Smile
