You're too kind, my plans is to vaporize them in the solar wind

So, you mean that you have lost attachment after you did a db backup ? Backuping the db is unrelated to the event IMO, there must have been an error (while optimizing (if you repair before you optimize it can occur) table for example) during the backup process or somewhere else. I can't really tell ...

Unfortunately I don't think we can do much about this : The problem with STK

You must have done something wrong when installing the mod, because it works out of the box : http://demo.phpbb-seo.net/ I let you brute force the password of the passworded forum ;) I assume your forum is working when you deactivate url rewriting in acp (please confirm), but if not, make sure about...

RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d RewriteRule ^dating/united_states_singles/?(.*) http://www.yourdomain.tld/free-dating/united_states/$1 [QSA,L,R=301] Assuming you delete the physical directory (if any) dating/united_states_singles/...

The basic custom question (are you a bot) configured in acp, ban on all gmail.com (sadly, but it was alone providing with over 90% of spammers without any reaction from google, and user usually have an alternate email together with their gmail) and some moderation of course.

from a backup maybe ?

Are these folders empty ?

Have you checked orphan attachment in acp ?

Attachments are not stored in the db, you need to make sure you also put back online the content of the phpBB/file directory (and while you're at it, the content of phpBB/donwload, phpbb/store and phpBB/images/avatars).

You should try the premod to understand what is made possible with our mods, including all features you seems to miss and more.

FYI, by "how well" I truly meant "how badly", and the canonical tag is, even though stronger than robots.txt, a weaker measure than the zero duplicate which 301 redirects all kinds of dupes to the canonical url.

No, this is normal behaviour on phpbb2 version. Tile should though be descriptive enough, the mod cannot do better than your content.

Fix your template to only display the dynamic meta tags and you'll be like 96% close to perfection (where phpBB3 version might reach 98%).

You have tywo set of meta tags, this indicates that you did not remove the original static meta tags from (all) your overall_header template(s). A part from that, the second set of meta (the dynamic one from the mod) seems ok to me. -http://www.forum.paganfederation.org/viewtopic.php?t=2768 <meta na...
