vB Easy Archive FINAL - Search Engine Spiderable Hack! Get your posts listed @ google

[high]HOW GOOD DOES THIS HACK WORK??? >>> [/high]Over 29,000 pages spidered since January 1st!!!!!!! Visit http://www3.google.com/search?hl=en&...e+SkuZZy+Xenon to see all the pages this script has helped get spidered into google! Sub-Forums have been added! Final Version Released - February 10th I added sub-forums in this final version, one of the most requested features to be added... but, sad to say... this will be the final version. I never got a chance to add some of the cool features I said, but I feel this archive has served it's purpose and hopefully will continue to do so for all the die hard users who stick with vb 2.2.9. I decided to make this the final version because vb3 is coming out soon and I think this archive is the best archive currently out. Sure, there are more flashy ones, but this one gets the job done and gets results. Hopefully this hack will live on for a while. Edit by Xenon: Whenever there is a problem, i'll take a look at it, and perhaps add a feature or two  About this hack This hack will help get all your threads listed in google and other search engines and get your threads easily spidered! It works by creating an archive and turning all your posts into .html format. It doesn't actually create the .html files though, but google thinks they are real! It uses mod_Rewrite. If you don't have mod_Rewrite, you can't use the scripts (sorry). What does it do? The purpose of this hack are to get your keywords from your forums listed in google and get people visiting them! Since these are all pure text and don't use tables or excess font tags, they are very friendly on bandwidth! This will display all your files in a nice text format that google will absolutely love! Visit the online demo below to see it in action! Online Demos To view a demo of this script, visit some of the "live" demos at the following sites: http://www.destee.com/forums/archives http://www.thrillnetwork.com/boards/archive/ http://www.truecountry.com/forums/history/ http://www.strategy-forum.de/easy_archive/index.php http://www.pimprig.com/forums/archive/ http://www.jokersrewards.com/forum/history/ http://board.midibuddy.net/archive2/ http://x-mencomics.com/xfan/forums/archive/ http://www.macfora.com/forums/archive/ http://www.rcgroups.com/archive/ http://www.codewebs.com/forums/archive/ http://www.lcdmod.com/forums/archive/ http://www.source-forums.org/vB/archive/ http://www.subduck.com/history/ http://www.thesistersthree.com/archive/ http://www.a51forums.com/archive/ http://www.yes-its-free.com/easyarchive/ http://www.wcgateway.com/forums/archive http://www.toyotaimportsforum.co.uk/forum/archive/ http://www.prisontalk.com/forums/archive/ http://www.gamesites200.com/archive/ http://www.allthingsmoto.com/archive http://www.2spoemas.com/foros/archive/ http://www.mysticwicks.com/archive/ Requirements Apache vBulletin 2.x mod_mime installed .htaccess 5 minutes of your time... Known Problems/Confusion Mod_mime - You will NEED mod_mime to run these scripts. Mod_mime is a free module which enables a directive called "ForceType". This allows you to use the .htaccess file included to force your files into php mode, which allows simple URL's, without .php in them. If you can see the front page of your archive, but get an error page when you click on any links then this is your problem. To fix it, you will need to install mod_mime, or ask your host to do it. It's a FREE module. For more information, visit http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_mime.html Private forums - Private forums are NOT shown and they will NOT be spidered. Some people say the private forums show up, that is because you are logged in as the admin and the archive uses permissions. So anyone who has permission to view the private forums on your forums, will beable to view them on the archives also. But if you log out of your account OR log into an account that doesn't have access to them, then you won't beable to view them Credits Biggest credit goes to Xenon who originally coded the scripts. He is the man! Also thanks to everyone who tested it out for me and kept bugging me about releasing it (when I was too lazy to). Agreement By using these scripts & installing them, you agree to leave the small (virtually unnoticable) copyright text and links at the bottom of all pages. You also agree to leave jelsoft's copyright there as well. You can modify the scripts much as you want, but this portion must remain intact (links must stay) and visible. This is all we ask  Download Final To install, just download the file below and open the "_readme.txt" file. All is explained there. Installation should only take a couple of minutes. If you have problems with this script, post them in this thread and I will try and get around to answering them. Show Your Support

@cono The quickest way would be too copy the HTML directly from viewing the forums and add it to header.php
@SkuZZy you can add me to the list too if you want (http://www.thesistersthree.com/archive) Works well as a text only version of the site and sub forums seem to work now too :$

ours has crashed. We rebuilt our server. Linux Redhat 8.0 and now the script doesn't work. any suggestions?
http://www.thrillnetwork.com/boards/archive/ All the paths are the same. and the index page pulls up it just doesn't parse any of the forum pages. Is this an Apache thing? Permissions? Very odd.

Thank you for sharing this hack Xenon and SkuZZy.
The installation went well and appears to be working properly. http://www.destee.com/forums/archives I noticed that there are many posts in this thread where folk talk about Google spidering their archives/history ... yet when I did a search on "modified/released by SkuZZy" ... I was returned only 242 results <??>. Thanks Again ... Clicking Installed. Destee

well granted, my forums have a lot of hacks installed, but despite having checked, double checked, and triple checked the path for global.php, i am still getting a blank screen. Any ideas?

 Like NTLDR mentioned, it takes google a few weeks to update all pages. No pages should even be in google as of now and they will be gone with the next few days (what you're seeing is called everflux). At the end of the month however, there should be alot Thanks for installing the hack.

I'd like to address all the people reporting problems. It's obvious these scripts have certain problems with various server configurations. Thrillnetwork proves this even further, when after upgrading to Redhat 8.0, their archive won't work now. I really don't know what to say. I am trying to figure out what the problem is and i've even asked more l33t programmers and no one seems to know. So I guess, bottom line is, if you can get this hack to work for you (which it seems like most people can) then congrats. If not, please, keep posting your errors here and I AM working on fixing it, but for now i'd suggest looking over some of the tips already posted in this thread about things needed in httpd.conf - Also, if your archive isn't working, try changing the two file names (topic / forum) to "topic.php" and "forum.php" then see if the url will work like that (IE: http://www.blah.com/forum.php/100.html) .... if it works after you rename them to PHP, then that means it IS a .htaccess error. Make sure your server supports the .htaccess you're trying to use. I'm not a pro on this command, but it's ForceType application/x-httpd-php ... so obviously the httpd.conf file is required and perhaps some hosts have it disabled. I have a feeling this is the problem many are suffering from. I will look into it more.
