vb3enhanced and spider-friendly urls

berlin · March 31st, 2005, 01:48 PM

I have photopost configured to vb3enhanced, but when i turned on the spider-friendly url option, my vb logo and and navbits_start.gif disappears in showphoto.php

Is there a work around on the following?

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

On the index page however, everything works ok:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

If your using spider urls you may not use relative image paths

what version of the program you using as later versions autorewrite the links to a full url

Well we do not autotranslate custom VB stylesheet urls

You would need to make your images stylevar path a full url instead of relative and it will work with spider urls as I noted above

Two things I do to my styles:

1) Style Manager/Main CSS: change the url paths to background images to full paths like url(/forum/images/image.gif
2) Style Manager/StyleVars: change image paths at bottom to full paths like /forum/images/image.gif

While PhotoPost tries to rewrite standard vB styles, it doesnt know about all of them; so changes these values makes your style work just right without any further modification.

If you have custom items in your navbar, you would want to modify your navbar template and use paths like /forum/script.php so the navbar can find those as well. Again, PhotoPost will rewrite the standard stuff, but if you have custom stuff you might need to edit it.
