Full Version: Google SEO URL probolem

Google SEO is not giving me proper URLS. They look like this:
http://randomchatter.co.cc/Thread-operat...83#pid1583
Is there a fix? Also I do not have the translate.php file in place for the reason that I can't find it in the mod files. Where do I get it? Also I forget if you are supposed to see a site map link in threads or on the forums. Am I supposed to see the site map. Also I have some other questions when these are answered. And if this is the wrong forum please move it.

If you're referring to the --342, disable the force uniquifier setting. As long as the thread title is unique there is no need to add this number to the URL.

?pid=1583#pid1583 can not be removed.

?pid=1583 is necessary to open the thread on the correct page (pagination depends on user setting), and #pid1583 is necessary to scroll to the correct post on that page. Removing either of those would break links to specific posts. That's just how they work in MyBB.
So it will never be http://randomchatter.com/introductionfor...-testpost/ or /testpost.html or this one http://randomchatter.co.cc/introductions...494(.html) or http://randomchatter.co.cc/(thread link)

??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
If you want to add .html, you can - it's completely unnecessary though.

Otherwise nope, Google SEO will never produce static names for post links. Multiple static names for the same thing (same thread) cause problems with duplicate content, so it would be bad SEO to do this.

I recommend the standard settings (that's why they're the standard settings). For some reason everyone sees settings and wants to change them around to something horrible. I don't really get it ... Wink
