Hey, I will be moving my phpBB forum to a vBulletin forum soon. I was just wondering of you guys know of any good modifications I can add to the forum. Give me your favirotes, and recommedations. I already have a load I need, and I would like to view and read about even more. I would also like anything else you need adding to your vBulletin forum. I am also intrested in things like vBSEO. Thanks, BlueEew.
on the vbulletin.com website there is a package that will convert your forum to vbulletin. as for any mods the best place to go is www.vbulletin.org. if you need any mods or vbulletin services let me no
I have been looking at vBulletin.org already, I have found some good free useful modifications there. I have a free forum hosted via a free forum provider, they now offer backups. I am just a little worried about transfering over, what is this service you are talking about. I am intrested.
my services include, installation off any forum, configuration, installation and configuration off any mods, moving forums / websites to different servers etc. please pm me if your interested
I am more looking for an step to step guide, and someone to ask questions. As I would like to do this myself.
The reason I am moving is because when I started my forum, I didn't even know what a webmaster was, never mind making an vBulletin forum. I made a free forum, and now I am fairly experienced in forums, I am moving to a paid forum.
i use a template mod an SEO mod(like vbSEO but free) its called vrewrite an advert management script a welcome headers mod
Thanks for that. Dose ad management help you place advertisments in your forum template or something?
yeah, you can put various ad codes in different templates, and use the manager to rotate them, display them to certain usergroups etc.
That modification sounds great, I am intrested in this. May I have a link to the modification website please, or the thread.
they were from www.vbulletin.org search for "vrewrite" and "vb ad management in the vb 3.5.6 mods forum
Thanks for that, I was silly, I have already read it there lol. Dose anyone else have any modifications suggestions?
not neciserily....(cant spell)! there is vBSEO, vrewrite and zoints SEO i use the 2nd, but apparently zoints is just as good as them all and is $150 cheaper than vbseo.....
Can you use all of them, like all three for SEO solutions on one vBulletin forum? Also if you can, would using all three make your foruma lot better, I mean will it attract more activity for you?
vBSEO and vrewrite basically do the same. Change your default URL address to Seach Engine Friendly URL: From: domain.com/showthread.php?t=310012 To, e.g.: domain.com/forum-management/vbulletin-modifications.html It helps your website rank higher in SERPs (Search Engine Result Pages), e.g. Google and URL is more readable and usable to visitor. I use many Mods on my Board, jut a few examples: - Templates Mod - Welcome Headers - Email reminder for inactive users - Moderation Auto-PM v2.0.1
