Legacy Multiple Homepage urls

[qwer81]

Hi, i have this issue with Google Analytics.

Is there a way to solve it?


View Forum is receiving hits from multiple pages that might serve the same content. Some examples are:
/
/index.php
Many web servers are set to have a default page for URLs with empty filenames. For example, Example Domain will serve the same content as Example Domain.

If your website serves the same content from multiple URLs, this content will have its data split across multiple rows in reports. If data for content is divided into multiple rows, traffic for that content will appear lower than it actually is.

To avoid this problem, you can use the Default Page View setting to group your URLs that use the default filename together with URLs that use no filename in reports. To enable this setting, go to the Analytics Admin page, then click View Settings, and change theDefault Page setting to the proper value.

Hello, this is my .htaccess.

Can i change something to fix the issue reported by Analytics?

Important: I don't use more vBSEO. I have to keep the "url rewrite" of vBSEO or can I remove them from the .htaccess?

Is your index.php file the file provided by vBulletin?

/* Tell forum.php to redirect 
to the default url as defined 
in the navigation manager */
define('VB_REDIRECT', true);

/**
 * If you want to move this file to the root of your website, change the 
 * line below to your vBulletin directory and uncomment it (delete the //).
 *
 * For example, if vBulletin is installed in '/forum' the line should
 * state: define('VB_RELATIVE_PATH', 'forum');
 *
 * Note: You may need to change the cookie path of your vBulletin
 * installation to enable your users to log in at the root of your website.
 * If you move this file to the root of your website then you should ensure
 * the cookie path is set to '/'.
 *
 * See 'Admin Control Panel
 *	->Cookies and HTTP Header Options
 *	  ->Path to Save Cookies
 */

//define('VB_RELATIVE_PATH', 'forum');

// Do not edit anything below //
if (defined('VB_RELATIVE_PATH'))
{
	chdir('./' . VB_RELATIVE_PATH);
}

require('forum.php');
