|
|
Hi there, i have looking trough the 3 optioon for mod rewrite, but i dint see any that will make the links like i have on my phpbb2 forum...
Whats happen is that im about to migrate to phpbb3, and i dont want to loose my Pr, so de mod rewrite must make the urls like the old one:
new-event-cooming-soon-vt1972.html
But, i noticed that this forum, use the same format of my phpbb2 forum.
I was thinking to install the mixed mod rewrite, but i dont know if will work with what i said above
Edit:
Well i installed mod rewrite mixed but when i go to acp ---> Forum url management, and change the links the changes dont make effect.
I want the links this way:
general-discussion-vf1.html View Forum
general-sites-vt2081.html View Topic
But they appear this way:
general-discussion-vf1-f1.html View Forum
topic1999.html View Topic
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Well, the mixed mod rewrite will not inject topic title in url, so if you want to keep you current rewriting, you should install the advanced version ( or the premod set up in advanced mod)
Then to keep the exact same url, you will have to keep virtual folder on "no", as well as the forum id removing (must be on "no").
Then, you'll need to edit the delimiters in phpbb_seo_class.php :
| Code: | | $this->seo_delim = array( 'forum' => '-f', 'topic' => '-t', 'user' => '-u', 'start' => '-'); |
Should be replaced with :
| Code: |
$this->seo_delim = array( 'forum' => '-vf', 'topic' => '-vt', 'user' => '-u', 'start' => '-'); |
Before you generate you .htaccess. and everything will work as expected.
Now, you could still consider the conversion to phpBB3 as a great opportunity to enhance you urls. It's not risky with the zero duplicate since you'll be able to HTTP 301 redirect every URLs. Of course, PR would have to be update upon the next Google dance, but this should not affect your SERPs and referrals, example of massive URL migrating.
All this because the phpBB3 mod rewrite are far more advanced than the phpBB2 ones. You may want to test the premod to fully test the features before you proceed

Thanks for your answer
I will try then the advanced mod, i was about to install that, but i saw to much warnings about that mod, so i choose the mixed.
About the premod, he dont fit on my needs, because i will use other template then prosilver.
I will try the advanced mod.

Required edits for the premod's template are posted in this thread.
