Hey bro, can the mod be changed to allow the first x number of posts to be seen versus justt he first one? I have not downloaded the mod yet, but would be willing to go to your site to do so if it can be set to allow another number of posts to show.

Personally, I don't have an issue going to your site, but if an update is released to a mod here, I get an email about it so I can grab the latest version. Not to beat a dead horse, but that is why I prefer to get mods here, but am not against getting them elsewhere as I have done so in the past many times.

Thanks for the time taken creating this mod. I am looking forward to implementing it on our boards.

Don''t lie now. You were the very first one to ask. And after you ,only another user asked about this as well and I was not rude. I simply told him that I wouldn''t upload it here. What is rude about that? Or when doesn''t care to your needs pronto then that is rude. Well, we got different definition about that.

That is a first I hear about google ban for such a thing. I am using this mod in several forums of my clients who use google adsense and none of them until now has been banned from google adsense.

The thing is that atm I am a little busy and don''t have much free time. But later on when I will have some more free time, I will look into this :)

In the meantime find this part at the mod file:


And change it to:


Replace 2 with whatever number you want. That number represents the number of first posts that will be shown to guests and hide the rest of them.

bah just change your user agent to
Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Googlebot/2.1; +http://www.google.com/bot.html)

I hate to be the barer of bad news but what Wilfred1 said is completely correct- this is the definition of "cloaking" - that is sharing different info with google then you do with a regular visitor and it is 100% against Google's most sacred rule. If someone reports your site YOU WILL GET BANNED FROM GOOGLE- and you may never get back on, if you do it will take at least 1 year. There is no appeals process, there is no debate- when Google confirms cloaking you are removed... period... the end.., Honestly everyone would be using this if that wasn't the case. Imagine if you had to register on every site you ever found in google before seeing the info you wanted.

Ask a "SEO Expert" if you don't believe me but this is common knowledge on the 'net.

If anyone cares about Google I strongly urge them to read the links above, search for "Google Anti-Cloaking Policy" and stop using the updated version of this mod immediately. You can not show different content to googlebot then you do any other visitor.

That's what it looks like to me... I'm sure you could use the other version too so long as you don't configure it for googlebot.

FYI- This is how I report sites that use 'cloaking' when I find them:

And it's not google "ad sense" you have to worry about. no one gives a hoot what adsense sees- it's googlebot for searches- that is what will get you banned from google search listings. Adsense is not the issue.

works wonderfull
