XF2.3 has greatly boosted performance. I hope that further improvements can be made by optimizing the HTML output. A GTMetrix report for XF2.3 shows excessive DOM size with almost 3400 elements on a page and 103 child elements : https://gtmetrix.com/reports/xenforo.com/A5Ttit73/ Maybe waiting...

It would be great if, along with the others criteria for indexing a node's threads in Google, it could be done depending on whether or not a prefix has been chosen.

This is after we were able to get Friendly URL's working from this post: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/friendly-urls-not-working.218696/ Since then we have noticed the "hover" preview does not work. Here is a screen shot without friendly URL's turned on: Here is WITH friendly URL's...

I hadn't given this much thought before but I'm about to publish a couple of specialist glossaries and haven't decided yet whether I want to allow replies/commenting. If so I know they will probably go all over the place in regard to focus so could potentially be detrimental to SEO. Or maybe...

This is from the PAGE_CONTAINER template: <title><xf:title formatter="%s | %s" fallback="{$xf.options.boardTitle}" page="{$pageNumber}" /></title> As a result the board title (as defined in the admin options) is displayed at the end of the meta-title, so e.g. This is a thread title |...

I'm thinking very hard about changing the language of the forum and domain, but I don't know how it will look like with posts in the native language. English will be the main language and old threads would be moved, for example, to the archive category. What does SEO look like after such...

We recently completed an SEO analysis, as our site traffic took a big hit with the September 2022 Google update. One of the recommendations was to mark all the thread titles and posts with rel="ugc", to designate them as user-generated content. Have others done this? If so, how did you...

Here is my latest Search Counsel report from Google. I know my site is still new but why the huge disparity between the crawled not indexed and the indexed? Any way to close the gap that has worked for you?

Question for the SEO-savvy. I'm getting asked what's better for the forum's SEO? Post an article in the Resources section or as an Article in the forums section? Any difference you can think of?

Notices are often used to show content unrelated to the page they appear on. Notices are also often duplicated across multiple pages. As Xenforo sits currently, search engines may use the notice content as the "snippit", the search engines' description for the page, which is shown to all search...

The links in some widgets (Latest Post...) have the "/post-" included in the url. So Google can index the same page twice. I have seen threads on my site been indexed 2-3 times by Google. For example: site.x/abc/thread.15300/ site.x/abc/thread.15300/latest site.x/abc/thread.15300/post-154670...
