Fixed XenForo Redirects for vBulletin (XF301VB): Suggestions for more URLs

[Steffen]

Affected version

2.0.2

I'd consider some of them essential because they are likely referenced in old threads and emails (lostpw, terms, requestemail), others would be nice to have.

/login.php -> /login/
/login.php?do=lostpw -> /lost-password/
/memberlist.php -> /members/
/misc.php -> /help/
/misc.php?do=bbcode -> /help/bb-codes/
/misc.php?do=showrules -> /help/terms/
/private.php -> /conversations/
/profile.php?do=buddylist -> /account/following
/profile.php?do=editavatar -> /account/account-details
/profile.php?do=editoptions -> /account/preferences
/profile.php?do=editpassword -> /account/security
/profile.php?do=editprofile -> /account/account-details
/profile.php?do=editsignature -> /account/signature
/profile.php?do=ignorelist -> /account/ignored
/profile.php?do=privacy -> /account/privacy
/register.php -> /register/
/register.php?do=requestemail -> /account-confirmation/resend
/subscription.php -> /watched/threads
/usercp.php -> /whats-new/

Do you happen to know if those URLs stay constant regardless of friendly URL settings in various versions of vB?

 

[Steffen]

vB3: IIRC vB3 didn't support friendly URLs unless you installed an Add-on. But I guess you knew that.

vB4: I've just enabled friendly URLs in a vB4 test installation and all URLs mentioned above are unaffected. It seems like vB4 uses friendly URLs only for forums, threads and members but not for the pages mentioned above. I've double-checked some of the URLs in another live vB4 forum.

vB5: I've never used vB5 and don't have a licence, so I cannot say anything about vB5. But I don't think that these redirects could do any harm.

I'll certainly look into this

And done.
