Show Spiders Online on ForumHome · **Released**: 02-07-2005

This one is a pretty easy hack to install. It shows any spiders that are indexing your site in the what's going on box on the forum home page. Please note. It will only show spiders as spiders and not as guests if it also shows them as spiders and not as guests on online.php.

This hack has been tested on 3.0.6 and 3.0.7.

It's not hard to install, but it does have one drawback. If you have a portal page that shows online users, you will have to edit it yourself to incorporate the changes. Consider yourself warned.

At this point, any problems reported are installation errors. If things don't work for you, make sure you have completed all the steps as written.

As I have upgraded to 3.5, I am withdrawing support for this older version. All the bugs are gone and any issues are now installation errors.

FAQ
1. I get this: [ARG:3 UNDEFINED] spiders on my portal page.
As noted above, because of the large number of portals, you're on your own for integrating them into thie hack.

2. I get this: [ARG:3 UNDEFINED] spiders on other pages.
1. Make sure you have done all of the code changes correctly.
2. Make sure you have updated your style to use the modified templates. If not, that error will occor.

esfron · #**163** 03-20-2005, 04:27 AM

Sorry. Remove the space the space after the comma does'nt work for me. I got John , Pete , Barry.

amykhar · #**164** 03-20-2005, 04:33 AM

The code I gave you isn't for John, Pete and Barry. It is for Google, Yahoo, etc.

esfron · #**165** 03-20-2005, 04:41 AM

Remove the space after the comma there.

Nope, that isn't it. I tripled checked and tested, but the extra space is still shown, but thanks for the quick response.....any ideas?

Your response on my other request works great, thanks.

I guess I don't multitask too well at 1 a.m. I'll play with it now.

amykhar · #**169** 03-20-2005, 01:00 PM

Found it. The string needs to be trimmed in two places.

Code:

$loggedin['musername'] = trim(key($spiderlist)) . "(" . $spidername.")";

and

Code:

$loggedin['musername'] = trim(key($spiderlist));

I'll update the directions.

When this has happened to others, they were missing the code edits that were supposed to be inserted ABOVE

Code:

Check that in your index.php.
