Need help just bought gars unbranded and....

[chick]

and installed it, in the artilce text subject where the article shows (every one of them shows with) google brackets around it.

I do not have anything stating this so where is coming from please

<!-- google_ad_section_start -->article name whatever<!-- google_ad_section_end -->

[mambomouth]

Turn off Google ad's via Vbseo setting.
Only fix for now.

You're totally wrong. There is a workaround for that. Creta a RR with the following content
forumdisplay pages
[forum_title]
showthread pages
[thread_title]
and then use <!--VBSEO_RR_2_NOHTML--> within your templates , you'll be good to go.

Take care

Which templates require this? There are several GARS templates...

As I'm not familiar with vBSEO, I'm not sure how to set up Relevant Replacements in vBSEO, but from post three it looks like the forumdisplay and showthread pages.

Actually, the solution came from kevinl at vBSEO forums (http://www.vbseo.com/f77/adsense-comment-line-gars-32573-new/):

In GARS_pb try replacing $post[gars_pagename] with <!--VBSEO_RR_2_NOHTML--> and see if that helps.

So in the GARS_pb template, find:

<strong>$post[gars_pagename]</strong>

and replace it with:

<strong><!--VBSEO_RR_2_NOHTML--></strong>

Also see the first part of the instructions at http://www.vbseo.com/wiki/vBSEO_Compatible_Hack:GARS :

How do I enable vBSEO GARS Support

Enable the option within your config_vbseo.php file by changing '0' to '1' as seen below:

define('VBSEO_ENABLE_GARS', 1);
Navigate to the URL Rewrite Settings Section within your vBSEO Control Panel and expand the 'Advanced Settings' by clicking "+".
Find the GARS Article View URL Format (garpg) setting within the Thread URLs section.

Select a preset GARS pagination setting or create a custom URL format.
Set to the preset:

[forum_title]/[thread_id]-[thread_title]-gars[thread_page].html
