I need to include all the various plugin cs and js too though….

[@nanchante Participant 15 years, 7 months ago]

ok thanks.

[@nanchante Participant 15 years, 7 months ago]

Clearly, this is THE one big issue that everyone faces. I agree, thatthere needs to be an official HOW TO for page load speed and performance.

Granted everyone has different setups, but things like manually combining js and css and calling from a subdomain is something everyone should be able to do, if we are shown how.

Hosting: am on the 32gb plan with stormondemand.

*bump* anyone?

[@nanchante Participant 15 years, 7 months ago]

Nup. Joomla has so many SEO holes in it, it’s not funny. Even with so called SEO plugins, it is still a horible nightmare.

Bad code, horrible backend…. the user experience is just not a good one.

Anyone comes to me with a Joomla site, I simply turn them away… or sugest they rebuild.

[@nanchante Participant 15 years, 7 months ago]

Don’t do it. I signed up then bailed within days. Got a weird feeling. You’ll get a much better deal with Stormondemand.

[@nanchante Participant 15 years, 7 months ago]

Joomla sucks. period.

[@nanchante Participant 15 years, 7 months ago]

awesome, thanks r-a-y for the patch.

[@nanchante Participant 15 years, 7 months ago]

Joomla is the work of the Devil. Say it backwards and you never know just what might happen.

Urggggh.

[@nanchante Participant 15 years, 7 months ago]

@djpaul : is this instead of W3? or as well as?

[@nanchante Participant 15 years, 7 months ago]

so ditch phpbb instead!

[@nanchante Participant 15 years, 7 months ago]

thanks r-a-y.

[@nanchante Participant 15 years, 7 months ago]

um, if you’re using phpbb, why use buddy press?

Kind of defeats the whole point, no?

[@nanchante Participant 15 years, 7 months ago]

just a couple? Can you elaborate please?

[@nanchante Participant 15 years, 7 months ago]

LOL @all

OK, here’s an example, and what I would like to do:

http://www.mydomain.com/community/groups/vegetable-gardening-forum/forum/topic/growing-carrots/

… to become something like …

http://www.mydomain.com/community/vegetable-gardening-forum/growing-carrots/

Is this kind of thing possible?

[@nanchante Participant 15 years, 7 months ago]

that;s great, thank you very much.

Do you know if it is possible to have no slug value for things like “groups” and “members” etc?

ie, am trying to move all the really relevant stuff like forum title etc further up the url dir path.

[@nanchante Participant 15 years, 7 months ago]

Giving this a bump: I’d really like to be able to have the page number shown in the title IF the page id > 1.

[topic title] – page no:2

How can I do this please?

[@nanchante Participant 15 years, 8 months ago]

That’s great.

Can you please do the same snippet for forum posts? My install (1.2. seems to have ajax pagination, and I need real pagination for SEO.

Further, how does one include the page number in the meta title tag?

eg “Fitness Forum Page 2”

for me, it was the facebook footer bar that was conflicting…..

[@nanchante Participant 16 years, 2 months ago]

i fixed this by uninstalling the facebook footer plugin – seems it was calling another version of jquery on top of 1.4.2, and I assume this broke it.

[@nanchante Participant 16 years, 2 months ago]

I fixed this one too – it is in the /community/ folder, and i just did a find replace in the two relevant fields in the activity table.

[@nanchante Participant 16 years, 2 months ago]

Thanks a lot. Not sure exactly how I fixed it, but did a combination of redoing permissions / ownership and deactivating a bunch of plugins – not sure exactly which plugin it was yet., but thanks for the tips.

[@nanchante Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

yes, found it i think. Thanks very much.

[@nanchante Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

… and will it gzip too?

[@nanchante Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

where do i do this please?

and you mean a group of js files, not a buddypress group, rt?
