Introduction
============
Thanks TheGodFather for letting us upgrading and editing Seo4Smf

If you found a bug or you want a new feature just contact me on this board
destek.smfmod.com/index.php?action=projects


What is doing this mod for your forum ?
=====================================
1. It's adding beatiful urls. Your url will look like:
Board: forum-example.com/the-board-name-id.html
Topic: forum-example.com/the-topic-name-id.html
2. Create sitemap for Google and Yahoo
3. Html Sitemap

Installation
============
Requirements
A working SMF 2.0 RC2. Apache with mod_rewrite enabled.
The mod is just beautifyng your urls, creating a sitemap for google and yahoo.
=====

Because I don't do any mysql query I was forced to preserve id of boards and topics on urls:
Board: forum-example.com/the-board-name-id.html
Topic: forum-example.com/the-topic-name-id.html

demo: www.adresimizbelli.com

This is a beta. It has not been vetted by the SMF Customization Team and may accidentally do something nasty. Please make SURE you have a backup prior to using this mod.

Arantor

Interesting. How come I can see calls to $smcFunc['db_query'] when it doesn't do "any" queries?

AdvancedSeo Team

This version of SEO for SMF is DOESN'T doing any MYSQL query (for topcis and boards) and is based just on SMF variables.
so it doesnt doing any mysql on board.
but if topic and board name is empty; it does mysql query

Arantor

And what does it do that Pretty URLs and SimpleSEF don't?

AdvancedSeo Team

good question :)

Your url will look like
Board:
forum-example.com/the-board-name-id.html
Topic:
forum-example.com/the-topic-name-id.html

it doesn't like pretty because your url doesnt like forum-name/board-name/topic-name/ and url does not hold in database  ;)

it doesnt like SimpleSEF because, it boards url like yourboard.com/general_discussion/ so
firstboard: general_discussion
second board: general_discussion
it doesnt work healthy.

and message url in advanced seo like
/topic-name-topic-id.html;msg-id;topicseen#new
but in simple seo
/board-name/topic-name_topic-id.msg-id.html#new

thanx for question
sorry for my badly eng :)

Arantor

I take your point about the board name; though SlammedDime is going to fix that shortly in SimpleSEF.

I would wonder, if you've modified SEO4SMF (which is what you've said):
1. Where is it stated that you gave permission? If you want to publish this on the SMF mod site you will need to confirm that.
2. Did the security issue in SEO4SMF get fixed?

Oh, and you'll need to do a lot of cleanup prior to any approval; we like mods to use SMF's coding style and for there to be no hardcoded text strings in the files (the 'Hacking attempt' one is fine, as is style and base HTML, but no user-visible text should be directly in the templates)


Also: What ACTUAL SEO benefit does this generate? There is, presently, no engine that significantly ranks based on the URL of the page itself other than the domain. There is an argument for clickthrough benefit but no SERP movement based on the 'prettiness' of the URL.

Where does it say TheGodFather allows it?

In any case, the credited author of SEO4SMF is sacx.

i send pm

Arantor

I saw that and replied.

I would still note that we would not be able to approve this right now even if the author approves, because it does not conform to the mod approval guidelines.

So, who's in the AdvancedSeo team?

If it is multiple people, please advise so we can manage the permissions appropriately on the submitted mod.

Arantor

Out of interest, have any sites got permission to redistribute your mod?


Arantor

Which sites? Just I know one site is already claiming to have it.
