Re: Can this be good for seo? Yes, you would need to edit breadcrumb template as well as any other click able link to home page. This is something I have done on my Travel Forum.

Re: Can this be good for seo? Yes its wonderful for SEO and helps consolidate PR. You'll also want to make sure you have no instances of index.php? index.php /?. I think you can redirect it all using a 301 redirect back to your site root. But i'm not 100% sure on that.

Re: Can this be good for seo? I think you can use .htaccess to redirect if you wish. Code: RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.*domain.com/index.php$
RewriteRule ^index.php http://www.domain.com/ [R=301]

Re: Can this be good for seo? AdminCP - Styles & Templates - Style Manager - Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates - Choose to edit navbar - find: <a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1">$vboptions[bbtitle]</a> Change it to: <a href="/forum/$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1">$vboptions[bbtitle]</a> Replace /forum/ with which ever directory your forum is located in and in case of root, change it to / Next up you would need to edit the header file if your logo is click able, there change the URL to the full static url of your forum. This way /index.php would only come up if you are coming from admincp or if you click on mark forums read. You can also do what MaddenGods has suggested, however in that case your server would have to redirect the URL each time.
