XenForo Redirects for vBulletin 1.1.9

[Baby Community]

I risk losing hits to switch to xenforo. I switched to XenForo. I am so happy...!

but I think there was a hit loss of 6-7 months. Until Google index adds new urls

I'm not sure where these are coming from, but my 404 logs have decreased with the 1.1.7 update with mainly profile 404 fails:

profile.php?s=f66ad217ba1c6622dd745594c42256b5&do=addlist&userlist=ignore&u=2120
profile.php?do=addlist&userlist=ignore&u=10612

Is it just me or are Blog posts being incorrectly redirected? Mine seem to be pointing to unrelated threads.

Really minor, but the phrase select_a_table in this addon does not appear to be used anywhere.

 

[dethfire]

The old addon would use 307 redirects, does this 301 everything?

???

Why on earth would it use a 307 (temporary) redirect? If you've migrated to as new URL type, it's permanent.

I'm using the old addon at the moment and the first redirect in the chain is a 307.

Do I really need to copy over the index.php, I have the $dir right but css does not load. If I reset the index.php to what I had before, the redirects still appear to work

This line breaks the site
XF::runApp('XF301VB\Pub\App');

Hi there, I ha,e moved few times ago Form Vbulettin to Xenforo and a developer install me this plugin for the redirections, but I'm seeing that all these kind of links just indexed from Google are not been redirected and are really more:

How to fix it? I have 12.000 links as this that are blocked to be redirected

I'm totally stuck with my XenForo test installation as I've been unable to get the re-directs working so have put off upgrading my live forum.

@bzcomputers and @briansol both kindly helped me but were unable to resolve it. I wondered how I get it working? I do have XenForo Redirects for vBulletin 1.1.7 installed.


This is how my .htaccess files look currently:

[briansol]

what did your vbseo urls look like before?

 

[JamesAus]

what did your vbseo urls look like before?

Here's an example:

http://www.mysite.net/forum/site-discussion/83280-who-last-moderator.html

 

[briansol]

throw this in your htaccess
after rewrite engine on

RewriteRule [^/]+/([0-9]+)-[^/]+\.html http://www.domain.com/forums/showthread.php?t=$1 [L,R=301]

that should put you back to stock vb url. Then, xf tool should pick that up and do the redirct based on the index. Make sure you've selected the right archive import index in the settings so it can map to the new IDs

Furthermore it hasn't work.

This is my htaccess:

#    Mod_security can interfere with uploading of content such as attachments. If you
#    cannot attach files, remove the "#" from the lines below.
#<IfModule mod_security.c>
#    SecFilterEngine Off
#    SecFilterScanPOST Off
#</IfModule>

ErrorDocument 401 default
ErrorDocument 403 default
ErrorDocument 404 default
ErrorDocument 405 default
ErrorDocument 406 default
ErrorDocument 500 default
ErrorDocument 501 default
ErrorDocument 503 default

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    
    # custom vb4 friendly url redirects
    RewriteRule ^[^/]+/([0-9]+)-[^\./]+\.html$ /showthread.php?t=$1 [R=301,L]

    #    If you are having problems with the rewrite rules, remove the "#" from the
    #    line that begins "RewriteBase" below. You will also have to change the path
    #    of the rewrite to reflect the path to your XenForo installation.
    #RewriteBase /xenforo

    #    This line may be needed to workaround HTTP Basic auth issues when using PHP as a CGI.
    #RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -l [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
    RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]
    RewriteRule ^(data/|js/|styles/|install/|favicon\.ico|crossdomain\.xml|robots\.txt) - [NC,L]
    RewriteRule ^.*$ index.php [NC,L]
</IfModule>

It is just a similar line in it but it seems that is not working nothing this. I have make a test removing the one is there and adding the one advised from Briansol but it seems that the result is the same.
