Good eye Nec

as I've mentioned in Capone's thread, he did a mistake with this vBSEO thing. It is useless for KWWHunction.
Before links were short and "easy" to remember.. now links are bigger and hard to memorize and share around.

KWWHunction was good without this shit and is ranked high for several search terms as well.
-999 Propz for this change.

^^ Sorry i forgot to advise you personally for this change.

But besides your ability to remember URLs, there are actual benefit in usage of VBSEO and with all the respect i don't think you need to be the one preaching us and giving us negative rep for doing whats best for KWWH.

And Dlow/NewEraCracker we gonna fix all VBSEO errors last night.

vBSEO is good for KWWH.
Also Admins did a good choice keeping the ids in the forum name slugs.

I have not agains't you Capone, I just think you should planned URL structure a bit more instead of using this big ones.

Well NEC.. I personally prefer:
besthostingforums.com/topic-id/topic-name.html

Looks better and clean.

Actually keeping id and name of id keeps google searches and more accurate..
Its the reason google likes certain seo because it can know how to categorize the links.

Numbers alone make it useless..

O.K This issue is fixed.

The issue is located within the function vbseo_thread_seotitle (inside vbseo\includes\functions_vbseo_createurl.php):

Original code:

function vbseo_thread_seotitle(&$vbseo_gcache_thread)
{
global $vbphrase;
if (!isset($vbseo_gcache_thread['seotitle']))
{
$ttl = ($vbseo_gcache_thread['title'] ? $vbseo_gcache_thread['title'] : $vbseo_gcache_thread['threadtitle']);
if(VBSEO_URL_THREAD_PREFIX && 
($prefid = $vbseo_gcache_thread['prefixid']) )
$ttl = (VBSEO_URL_THREAD_PREFIX_NAME ? $vbphrase["prefix_".$prefid."_title_plain"] : $prefid) . ' ' . $ttl;
$vbseo_gcache_thread['seotitle'] = vbseo_filter_replace_text ($ttl);
}
} 

Fixed code:

    function vbseo_thread_seotitle(&$vbseo_gcache_thread)
    {
        global $vbphrase;
        if (!isset($vbseo_gcache_thread['seotitle']))
        {
            $ttl = ($vbseo_gcache_thread['title'] ? $vbseo_gcache_thread['title'] : $vbseo_gcache_thread['threadtitle']);
            if(VBSEO_URL_THREAD_PREFIX && 
                ($prefid = $vbseo_gcache_thread['prefixid']) )
                $ttl = (VBSEO_URL_THREAD_PREFIX_NAME ? $vbphrase["prefix_".$prefid."_title_plain"] : $prefid) . ' ' . $ttl;
            $vbseo_gcache_thread['seotitle'] = vbseo_filter_replace_text ($ttl);
            if( strpos( $vbseo_gcache_thread['seotitle'], 'post' ) === (strlen( $vbseo_gcache_thread['seotitle'] ) - strlen('post') ) )
                $vbseo_gcache_thread['seotitle'] .= '-'; 
        }
    }
