Lite version vs. Ultimate Version?
-Copyright must remain (its’ small)
-Locked to 3 slides
-Background color and characters locked
-Locked to size/dimensions
-Customization features

Question:
Does it work on Forums too?
Yes.

Question:
How do I get images to show up in the slider?
Images must be near the top of the thread so that they also appear in the RSS. Images automatically go to the RSS feed, in turn go to the forumslider

Question:
Is it connected to another server?
No

I don’t see any items in the slider. Why?
Make sure RSS feeds are turned on is Admincp > Options. Then check the rss feed if there is any items being displayed.

Question:
My images are too stretched when appearing, why?
Typically you should only use images that are the same size as your slider. However, thats’ just ideal and unrealistic unless you have lots of time on your hands. If you can’t use pre-scaled images, forumslider is built with a resizer, just switch it to scaled mode instead of stretched mode.

What if there is no image in the thread and it shows up on the forumslider?
A default image is included with the slider. Replace it with an image of your own. This will show up when no images do.

Question:
I Want to buy ultimate version but lite mod doesn”t pull images on my cms.
Only default image and thread title showing.

Your images must be in the thread before its published. RSS feeds don’t update. Once your thread is submitted it goes immediately to the rss feed without any updates following. Also check your rss feed to see if images are appearing.
For example : http://buypoe.com/external.php?do=rs…s=120&count=10
See the images? Yours should look similar

Question:
Where can I learn more about it?
Forum-Skins.com

Question:
So exactly how much is it for forum slider ultimate? With my site I am going to want to have more than slides appear and adjust the size and all that. So if you could just tell let me know what the cost is It would be appreciated.

ForumSlider costs 59/month and comes with other premium mods and premium themes. You can cancel your membership at any time and still use them all as long as you want. So technically you can sign up for a month and get everything. I’m not allowed to say much about it here.

Question:
I want shows only photos from X forums: example….i can select forum with ID 3, ID 5, ID 7 ……etc etc….?
Antonio

You can combine RSS feeds from each of those forums using Feedburner.com or any of those sites that combine multiple RSS feeds into one. Then take that one rss feed and input it into forumslider.

    Best  SEO Modifications for vBulletin

    1. vBSEO – a product developed to boost overall SEO effectiveness.

    Overall thoughts:

    vBSEO’s three most effective jobs is

    • Converts your permalinks from website.com/This-Is-How-You-Do-It to website.com/This-Is-How-You-Do-It to.html. Why is this good? .html’s index faster and better than dynamic links, because .HTML’s appear static to google.
    • Linkbacks – I find this an awesome feature. It tells you who is linking to specific pages. Furthermore, you can add or reject them
    • Sitemaps – Automatic creation and features of their sitemap are great. Better than most platforms out there.

     

    #2. ForumSlider SEO – a dynamic slider that improves both deeplinking and new content on home page

    • Yep yep, brought to you by your one and only. If you are a VIP member, then you  most likely have this mod installaed and your onto a good start

    ForumSlider SEO’s most effective jobs:

    • Impresses guests in their first 7 seconds. Makes your site look professional.
    • Drives traffic and google bots deep into your pages.
    • Text displayed on slider is readable by google bots and other search engine bots.

    #3  Word Links (Turn words into links) by BOP5 – turns specific words in to links and you get to choose them

    • Has the ability to turn an unlimited number of words into links.
    • Ability to accept case sensitive words or not. If “Yes” will only match words of exactly the same case as your keywords. If “No” words will be linked regardless of case. (Recommended value: No)
    • Ability to allow multiple words. Choose the maximum number of links per keyword per post. 0 is unlimited. If you set a number other than zero, say 2, then only the first 2 instances of the keyword in any post will become links.
    • Ability to Use “nofollow” in Links
    • Ability Open Links in New Window/Tab

    #4 vB4 SuperCharged – Optimises CSS, Javascript and HTML

    • CSS Optiser – mimizes your css files and servers css directly
    • Javascript Optimizer – minimizes javascript loading
    • Html optimizer – adds whitespace removal
    • Attachment Optimizer – Intended for FASTCGI users

    Basically you can link all your main keywords to a very solid page about your keyword throughout your page. Awesome.

    Number of Days Registered to Post Links – You will be able to set a minimum number of how many days the users have been registered at your forum in order for them to post links.

    • Your probably wondering, hows this related to SEO? Bots spam your website and bypass Captcha these days. But they can’t bypass this. A bot needs to be sophisticated enough to return after x # of days to post their spammy links, and this modification blocks it.
    • Allowing bots to post links will decrease the value of your site or get it banned. Really bad for SEO. This prevents that.
    • This mod rocks.

    Worst Plug-ins for SEO

    #1 FUZZY SEO Booster – increase long tail search traffic AUTOMATICALLY!

    • They sneak a link to their website when the modification is suppose to boost links
    • Author doesn’t provide updates/help
    • Reports of a lot of angry people

    #2 vbStopForumSpam

    • This doesn’t stop all the forum spam, but it does stop some. The reason why this is bad for SEO is because it blocks REAL users some of the time. I recieved emails of people being blocked from registration and THAT is BAD. People who register are your content creators. And as far as SEO goes, CONTENT IS KING!
