Hello all!!
I'm tryning SEO mod. I'm new in this forum.
I have a problem. If a subject have a '!', the seo mod send a 404 error. If I delete it from URL, The problem is solved.
Is this a problem with htaccess code?
thanks all! |

You must be talking about the profile urls when using the id removing option, isn't it ?
If so, there is not much to do :
| install wrote: | __________________________________________________
NOTE: profile and user messages pages ID removing:
__________________________________________________
phpBB/member/nicknames VS phpBB/nicknames-uxx.html
If you use profile and / or user messages pages ID removing, you should know that a custom urlencode
will be used to circumvent a bug with mod_rewrite.
This imply that some chars like "&", "/", "#" and spaces will always be double encoded.
For example a user named rock&roll will require rock%2526roll (double urlencoded &) to be usable.
( http://www.php.net/urlencode => http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34602 )
There are other issues with custom characters, like accents, which will add some urlencoded chars in urls.
It's not an SEO issue, since bots knows about urlencoding, but it can end up building pretty long url with multi byte characters.
This does not concern the a-zA-Z0-9 chars, underscore ("_"), hyphen ("-") and dot (".") included.
This of course means that the ID removing on profile and user messages pages is more comfy and universally efficient
to use with alphanumeric chars user names (without accents). |
But you could still simulate a folder structure if you keep the ids :
nickname-uxx/
Would allow you to use all the characters you could think of in the nicknames, the same way it is for topic and forum urls : http://phpbb3.phpbb-seo.net/sub-forum/a-nice-topic-t38.html |
