Oh, by the way, vitaly I was able to still use vbseo on attachments as well =)

[Vitaly]

You mean, "attachments rewrite" vbseo options? I din't checked it at all, because don't use it (that option is off in my vbseo config).

Anyway, check twice, that your nginx config has separate "location" for thumbnails, and that this location stays before vbseo location. For example, you can temporary add deny rule for thumbnails location, to check that it's really catched.

vbseo php code should NOT be called for direct thumbnail links. Or you'll get no benefits from this mod.

Mod idea is:
- minimise php calls (no calls for thumbnails at all)
- minimise useless data transfer (can make sense for big attachments)

It strange, I have rewrites enabled for attachments, yet everything works. My headers are showing that they are coming through as direct links like

I must be doing something wrong then lol,

vitaly,

can you think of a good way to tell if this is working? I disabled vbseo attachment rewrites, and it still appears to be working, thumbnails are showing up, but is there a way to test if it's actually doing what it's superposed to?

[Vitaly]

If you turned on "nginx acceleration option", then it's ok.

If you wish to check thumbnails - add "deny all" to thumbnails location from nginx config (see sample from first post). If thumbnails disappears - then all is ok, roll back your nginx config. If thumbnails still shown - then they goes via vbseo rewrite rules and you have to fix nginx config. See my previous recommendation.

The last way to check - turn mod off when server is loaded and check load difference. ~20% in my case. Of cause, if you have few attachments, there will be no difference at all.

VBSEO itself doesn't affect bebefits of this mod, if you've managed to get direct links to thumbnails and proper nginx config. But I've not checked combination with "attachments rewrite" option, so, can't comment if it conflicts with this mod or not.

Thanks i have two problem
1 when i active this mod i can't download any files "attachments"

2 It's only for thumbs i mean is there any option to make it with other attachments i have a big Problem with attachments server load i have more then 60 user download attachments each One 20 mb and up to 40
Thats will help me alot

[Vitaly]

MmS1,

Do you use nginx webserver? I have no problems with full attachments (not thumbs), but this option work ONLY with nginx. With other webserver "nginx acceleration" must be disabled, see FAQ. Don't enable all mod options "just for fun", if you don't have nginx webserver.

If you use nginx, but full attaches can't be downloaded, check twice absolute path to directory (see config samples in FAQ)

Try to re-read FAQ and my explanations on previous page.

This is the config I used when I had your mod working AND vBSEO attachment rewrites going. Now from the site, everything worked. In fact, load even when down. Yet I'm not sure if it's correctly working or not.

Notice I did not add your config options as this seemed to work.

At first glance, that can work

IMHO, there are no reasons to add "expires max". Very cheap economy, but potential problems with browser cache, if you upload new CSS for some mod and so on.

[mindhunter77]

ok, set at 30d; ??

[Vitaly]

No. Remove it at all.

[mindhunter77]

ok,

For those who want to test this mod with vBSEO still handling your attachments this is my working conf file nginx. This one is updated from the last one I posted and has some fixes. Keep in mind a few things.

1) In my conf where it says /thumbnails is not attachment thumbnails, I embed flv video on my site and this is where the flv thumbs go. You will not need this.

2) I placed this in the mod config area, and have both options set to YES.

3) My server was running between 2.00 and 3.00 at all times before this mod, it now runs at 1.0 or less. I could probably get it even lower then that if I disabled the handling of attachments through vBSEO all together, but I get a lot of google image traffic and don't want to risk loss of ranks.

4) My forum gets about 50,000 unique per day, 90% of all threads contain pictures and video with picture thumbnails at 400px.

[mindhunter77]

nginx is a webserver, for this to work 100% you need to be using nginx as your webserver, your host may not just switch that for you, you will have to ask them

[MmS1]
