STEP 2:

In the includes/functions.php file, below
[php]
function print_output($vartext, $sendheader = 1)
{
global $pagestarttime, $query_count, $querytime, $DB_site, $bbuserinfo;
global $vbphrase, $vboptions, $stylevar, $_REQUEST;
[/php]

in 3.0.7 (in another version of 3.0.x, just put the code below the global declarations in the print_output function) add:

[php] // do Dani's SEO optimization
global $session;

$search_array = array(
'#<a ([^>]*)href' . preg_quote("=\"forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=") . '([0-9]+)' . preg_quote("&page=") . '([0-9]+)' . preg_quote("&sort=") . '([a-z]*)' . preg_quote("&order="). '([a-z]*)' . preg_quote("&pp=") . '([0-9]*)' . preg_quote("&daysprune="). '([^"]*)"#',
