please contact vbseo about your issue for a resolution. I would suspect they need to give you some code or something to make sure vbseo doesnt run on a non vbulletin script.

one more thing. photopost 7.0 compatible with vbulletin 3.8x ?

Chuck S · December 15th, 2009, 05:37 AM

Yes Photopost 7.0 is compatible with vbulletin 3 series or 4 series

Hendri, is your PP-Installation inside your vBulletin-Dir?

If yes, try to put an empty httaccess-file in your pp-dir (or use the one that comes with pp7 for SEO-Links)

Chuck S · December 16th, 2009, 06:11 AM

vbSEO is not used on photopost as it was written for vbulletin not our product so yes as Sonic notes you can try his trick. I beleive vbSEO actually has code to place in the vbseo htaccess not to touch photopost directory etc if it exists under your forum root

Hi guys,

It was a conflict with the vBSEO and PP betas because both scripts had a 'is this vB3 or vB4?' switch. Even though vBSEO doesn't rewrite PP, it was conflicting, and confusing PP as to what version of vB was running.

A fix: put /photos/ into the vBSEOcp 'Exclude Pages' box.

*edit* This still occurs under PP7 and the latest RC of vBSEO 3.5 (RC2).

Kall this is a vbSEO issue sorry putting photos under your exclude pages is the solution correct. That is why vbSEO has this setting because they know they can crash stuff that also runs with vb so thats why you can exclude stuff.

hendri · December 22nd, 2009, 06:22 AM

actually i think vbseo sucks ... make me headache... i thinking to pull it out...

Chuck S · December 22nd, 2009, 07:05 AM

Well what is the use of vbSEO anymore thats really my thought. vBulletin 4.0 has true SEO urls I beleive. I mean there SEO is not perfect yet but it should definately hurt companies like vbSEO and vbAdvanced that make products that directly do functionality that the new vbulletin does like CMS, Blog and SEO.

vBSEO - Feature Comparison vBSEO for vBulletin

Depends on how deep of an SEO effort you want; here is a comparison matrix that shows the differences between what you get with vBSEO and vB4.

I know why they (we) put that there, I'm Ace over there.

While what you say is correct, the only reason it is an issue is because both scripts are designed to work on both 3.x and 4.x vBulletin. Something in vBSEO is preventing PP from determining that it's running on a 4.x vBulletin.

Kall thats fine I am merely saying we integrate with vbulletin. We dont claim to integrate with vbSEO and they know there program can cause issues so they have a direct setting to disable vbSEO on specific directories.
