The vbseocp.php translations along with supporting documentation is now available for download.

The GP team worked very hard to successfully complete all translations prior to our 3.1.0 release.

Due to our decision to issue them in separate language pack downloads, they were not included in the vBSEO 3.1.0 download. Apologies to the GP team for the delay in making the translations available to their users.

The cleanup function is considered beta functionality at this point and is available via the vbseo_sitemap_config.php file. You may set a log records cleanup threshold in days by defining:

PHP:
———
define(’VBSEO_SM_PRUNE’, 0); // logs age in days to prune
———
*Updates in vBSEO Google/Yahoo Sitemap 2.1:*
1. Compatible with vBulletin Blogs. Includes the following new features:
1. Include Blog Pages
2. Page Update Frequency - Blog Entry (Default)
3. Default Priority - Blog Entries
2. Sitemaps log records cleanup threshold in days can be defined in vbseo_sitemap_config.php file:

PHP:
———
define(’VBSEO_SM_PRUNE’, 0); // logs age in days to prune
———
3. Pinging options for Google and Yahoo combined into one option: “Ping SEs”. The new ping will also ping ask.com and moreover (http://blog.searchenginewatch.com/blog/050208-105901) (MSN).
4. Yahoo ping changed. Yahoo App ID is no longer required.
5. Minor vBAdvanced compatibility issue fixed.
6. Minor Bugs reported via vBulletin.org Sitemap’s thread (http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=144730).
