This seems to be the next big thing to me.

However I've got one question: will restrictions based on the Cyb - Advanced Permissions Based on Post Count-add-on interfere with your add-on?

Thank you in advance.

google web masters considered it a violation of laws
The google disable archive site which uses this method
Is this true ?

[Hornstar]

Thanks for sharing, however, this is black seo, as your search engines are seeing content that guest can not. This will seriously get you de-ranked in search engines when google works out that your doing this. I strongly suggest not doing this method.

I guess this will override them.

Partly I guess.It shows the content that registered users can see (which are humans) but guests might not (depends on your options).So it's not a complete violation.But yes,it can happen.

Please view above.

Black seo & google doesn't like this mod I read. Oh Didms..

My thanks to members for posting said infomation but I do take issue with .corps whom ignore robots.txt and try waving the big stick when we ark up, using a tool that works.


Thanks Ziki, your a champion. :up:

This plugin has saved us much time..

I installed it but I really just wanted google adsense to have access to multiple private group forums for the purpose of targeted advertising. Does this mod allow multiple groups?

[Ziki]

Only one

[nooofe]

Thanks

[Sweeks]

So I can do this?

Place bots in xx usergroup and then use template conditionals to hide the content from the bots?
