  • [Blog] Outbrain not working correctly with VBulletin

    UPDATE: A rep from Outbran contacted me. They fixed the problem on their side. He saw this post

    http://www.outbrain.com is my replacement for the blog ratings. I like the internal re-links. It shows 3 related articles based on other people's ratings.

    Now my problem is these links outputs like this on internet explorer (when i click the link):
    http://www.tf2tactics.com/entry.php?...ywalk-Dustbowl=
    on Firefox:


    so the first one doesn't work, I'm assuming somewhere along the way the "?283-Xbox-Exploit-Out-of-Map-Skywalk-Dustbowl" is interpreted as a querystring so it adds an "=" like ?page=1

    so my question is, is there a work around this to make this work? where do I start looking on where the handler is located for the blogid retrieval? I just need to write a some code to check if there's an equal sign and remove it. No chance that Outbrain will read my emails (I've tried before...). So it has to be done within vbulletin.

    Thanks so much

    or... is there a hardcode way of writing the URL, like say website.com/entry.php?id=1. because that would eliminate the problem as well.

    nevermind i think i found a quick fix http://www.tf2tactics.com/entry.php/284

    using a slash instead of a question mark, had to google through all the vbulletin sites for variations of the entry.php URL
