Re: [Revised] vBulletin Mod_rewrite Tutorial

Problem solved. I just added keith's mod_rewrite_title function to functions.php then replaced my TEST MOD in the construct_page_nav function with:

// MOD by Chad (4/16/05) ************
 global $threadid, $threadinfo; 
 $threadTitle = $threadinfo['title'];
 $tpURL = 't'.$threadid.'p'.$curpage.'-'.mod_rewrite_title($threadTitle);
// END MOD **************************

Works like a charm and now I have keyword links to all pages.

Hey guys,

Just to let you know I've achieved this efficiently solely with one template edit. The thing that put me off installing this mod in the first place was the file edits as I'm trying not to modify my source at all. I'll be writing an article on it soon and publishing it

Regards,
- Dean

So has anybody posted a revised version of this mod_rewrite hack (Keith's version) with all the fixes in it so that it works with vb 3.0.7?

Well it's compatible with forumdisplay, showthread, showthread-pages and similar threads The only thing I'm having problems with is who-online. I'm trying to keep this to only one-templated you see. Everything is working apart from the who's online

I've done some benchmarks too as far as processing time goes and it's extremely efficient.
