Keyword URL's not on front page?

Hi,

I did the mod on the board everything works fine except for the front page where the keyword URL's do not show. Any idea why it still shows

http://www.mydomain.com/viewforum.php?f=31

and not the keyword URL?

Thanks

I would carefully re check the index.php of the changes you made.

Also, I recommend CyberAlians Guest sessions MOD

For SID's removal I used this:

SID's should not play a role in this? Question

I thought it would be a rewrite problem?

anyone...

I don't think SId would play any role in this.

As told by Peter77, the problem is located in index.php.
Could be a problem while installing, or your index.php file to have been modded.
Since the required code changes are few, please double check and tell us where you have doubts about the FIND and REPLACE.

By the way, I as well suggest you install and use the cyber alien session removal method.

and do not forget the final touch Wink

Hi,

I am not sure. It uses ExtremeStyles. Everything works fine except the front page. I don't want to leave it as is, as it might create duplicate content punishment.

This is the index file.

It looked like your index.php is not up to date, so I advise you to update phpBB ASAP, and you'll find the proper code to edit Wink

Would the update fix it?

dcz

Yes and even more Wink

The code to search for in index.php was added by 2.0.21, so you need to be up to date to find it and thus fully install the phpBB SEO mod rewrite.

Besides, it's a pretty good occasion to update, as it should already be the case Wink

Hi,

I upgraded the software to .21 now. It is using two sets of mods:

[1]

http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=414391

This in version 21 does not work correctly. So I had to add.

[2]

http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=350442

To give it a "moving" topics list.

I looked at:

[3]

http://www.phpbb-seo.com/boards/phpbb-mod-rewrite/discussions-vt404.html

and added it. The front page gives keyword url's. The "moving" latests posts gives keyword url's. BUT the static "Popular Topics (by reply)" and "Popular Topics (by view)" does not! Embarassed

The other odd thing is that the moving topics gives a keyword url. Click on it and once on the page all the links on the top are not keyword url's.

What am I missing?

You still need to finish you regular mod rewrite installation Wink

.

The file not updated is viewtopic.php, as you can see Forum and topic urls are not rewritten yet on topic pages : -http://www.justiceforcyprus.com/cyprus-links-vt70.html

Check the code changes, they are not many.

Then, for The last Five and the Five popular, it looks really the same as the latest and most popular mod, already patched.
