QuickMOD Compatability with phpBBSEO

Hi there,

any idea on how to make it work with this ext: https://github.com/phpbb-seo/usu

Thks!

I found a fix!!!!

open quickmod/libraries/quickmod.php and search for:

Code: Select all

      $this->forum_id = $this->request->variable('f', 0);
      
      $active         = false;
      $mod_pages      = ['viewforum', 'search', 'viewforum.' . $this->php_ext, 'search.' . $this->php_ext];

      if($this->phpbb_root_path == './' && in_array($this->user->page['page_name'], $mod_pages))
      {
         $active = true;
      }

replace with:

Code: Select all

      $this->forum_id = $this->request->variable('f', 0);
      $active = false;

      // Check if we're on a forum or search page by looking for specific request variables
      if ($this->phpbb_root_path == './' && ($this->forum_id || $this->request->variable('search_id', '', true)))
      {
         $active = true;
      }

Thank you for the code provided.
The problem is that, although it may work, this causes the extension to load on pages where it shouldn't, adding unnecessary load to the forum, and the "search_id" parameter is very specific and I can't add it directly in the extension.
I'll try to find an alternative solution

Yes, I then realized this when my reply, quote and post features stopped working.

I found a solution but it's very ugly: I hard-coded the extension to work only on pages that I want. But it's a very nasty solution. Because if I create another Forum I have to add it manually to the extension for the extension to work on that forum.

If you find a better alternative please let us know It's really a must have extension.

phpBBSEO extension is old, abandonned and badly written solution anyway, I would recommend you to go to sitesplat BBSEO, but its paid. It will require you to purchase a theme and then purchase the extension/membership.

is the BBSEO really working?

Does it work like phpbbseo ultimate mod?

It doesnt work as phpbbseo ultimate mod. It does everything that phpbbseo do, but it was coded recently with better practices and a different vision. So its light for the system. But you should ask any doubt to sitesplat on themeforest or on his forum.

Here some Screenshots it may help you understand:

how much $ is the extension after I buy the theme?
This is all I want to know. Because I can't see the marketplace.

The thing I always worry about with these kinds of extension is - what happens when the extension is no longer supported?

Essentially, it's more a cosmetic thing than anything else. I use no SEO mods at all (apart from a sitemap) and I consistently score top results in Google. It's simply because the quality of the posts, which I have invested a LOT of time into...

@nou nou: Correct, its more a cosmetic thing. When there are no more support, that happens with any extension, even the oficial ones from phpbb team itself. We can only fix ourselves or pay any dev to do it. Its the only way to keep the extensions we want to keep in order to evolve to new versions of the software.
Even PHP evolves and forces everything to evolve with it. But honestly, sitesplat, canidev, Dion, Oxpus, kasimi they all have been around for more then a decade supporting their work. So at least those I know I can trust.

@deiux3, after check, this is an extension that is not for normal "sale" on sitesplat community. It is available for the users that supports his work (membership). There are 2 plans, 3 months (25$) and 1 year (45$, and this one offers 25$ on his marketplace so its the only choice lol).
In 3 years if you want to get a new version you'll need to renew the membership (it sucks yeah lol but its the only way to provide us updates for free forever and you get access to some extensions that are not available to sale).
So... his cheapest theme is bboots that costs 18$ (flatboots costs 27$) + 45 you'll need 63$ to get the extension.
Oh, all his extensions only work with his styles, they're not made for "prosilver" styles. So you'll need to do some work on extensions that have style files.
Hope the information helps you decide.
