News of SEO phpBB

Hey all, got a quick question. I went to Open Site Explorer and checked out my forum and below the results:

http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/compari ... Findex.php

As you can see, I have results for the landing page and the actual domain. Is this normal if they should be pointing to the same page? If not, how can I fix it? Thanks.

Hey guys,

I was able to set up my forum just fine with the Serenity style and SEO mod, however, my Page Titles are not showing up correctly -- it must be a code in my overall-header file. This is an example of one of my page titles:

Code: Select all

Index page &bull; <!– IF S_IN_MCP –>Moderator Control Panel &bull; <!– ELSEIF S_IN_UCP –>{ UCP } &bull; <!– ENDIF –>Living in HCMC Forum

If you go to my forum at http://forum.spotvietnam.com you can see the funky code in the middle of all of my Page ...

Say for instance my structure is as follows:
Main/Forum 1/Forum 2/Forum 3.

How do I set up phpBB SEO so that my page title (shown in Google results) is:
Forum 1 - Forum 2 - Forum 3 - Site Title OR even better, allow me to select which levels of forums are shown

Rather than just:
Forum 3 - Site title

Reason being is that "Forum 3 - Site title" alone does not mean much, but inclusion of Forum 1 and/or Forum 2 in the title will assist.

I've just installed Attriuum, a new style, over a premod install of phpBB SEO. It's a prosilver based style, as far as I know. Anyways, just noticed that I can no longer see the URL box when making a new thread, as I could before.

Anyone know how to fix this? Is this an automated way of doing so, or will it require manually checking/editing all the required files?
Could this mean that I may need to check to ensure that no other modifications need to be done to my new style in order for phpBB SEO to work exactly ...

I have a clean install of PHP 3.0.10 (SEO pre-mod).

I have enabled Mixed, re-writing.

When I go to my forum it loads and the URL links are to the re-written URLs not x.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=5, as I would expect.

However neither x.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=5 or x.com/forums/your-first-forum-f2.html loads I get a 404 Error on both. Going to a non-existant forumn e.g. #112 x.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=112 comes up with a working forum error saying no forum exists.

I have put a 644 .htaccess into my root as well as /forum/ directory and no joy. I have uncommented Options +FollowSymlinks in it too.

Any ideas?
