eXtend Show Spiders
 

What this hack does is extends vbulletins base functionality for $show['search_engine']. By defualt vbulletin only recognizes three spiders well this hack extends it to around 300 or so spiders.

I would say more about this and or provide screenshots if only that was possible for this. Basicly this is using a function i made to identify spiders and modified the vbulletin show variable for spiders.

This is a great seo mod becuase it helps filter out the useless junk that spiders dont care about.

I no longer have time to support my mods here so please report suggestions and other things: http://vbhacks.extremewebtech.com/fo...read.php?t=167

I will try to maintain the latest version of this hack on here but no promises.

good stuff :classic:

I installed this for about 3 seconds, as it made every link I clicked on my forum show just a blank page.

After uninstalling it, things worked normally, so it's definitely this.

a screenshot for this mod would be great, so people will know whether or not it is work.

How do you screenshot a mod that is just code changes?

It only effects what spiders see using vbulletins defualt method for that. I just extended it to support more spiders for the spider detection variable.

Did you upload the files to the correct folder? If not then it could generate a white page becuase of not finding the function file.

folder path should look like so:
/yourforumsdir/ewt/core/

Thanks alot mate v.nice hack

Thanks man!

I believe there is an official expansion to the XML file posted over at vb.com...
