Version: 2.0.x Rating:
Released: 04-29-2001 Last Update: Never Installs: 53
 
No support by the author.

I am tired of my 200,000 posts not being listed in Google. I was inspired by phpbuilder.com this morning and I wrote:

vbSpiderFriend - the search engine indexer for all of your posts

Purpose: Allow search engine spiders to crawl a linked list of all of your posts.

Project Requirements:

-Friendly URLs (no query strings)
-Good dynamic meta tags
-Never have to touch the script again.. It is Y3K compliant, simply re-submit to the engines to update your listings

Install Requirements:

-vBulletin 1.x or 2.x
-about 10 minutes


1) Download the attached Zip.

2) Open class.mysql.php and put your database login info at the top.

3) Create a new directory called archive under your forum, like /forum/archive

4) Open the included .htaccess and change the Error 404 to your new archive path.

5) Open index.php and change the self-explanatory variables at the top of the file.

6) Upload all 3 files to your archive directory.

7) Submit /forum/archive/index.php to search engines and watch em crawl


DISCLAIMER: I don't use 2.x but I checked the schema and this should work fine.

NOTES: This uses ErrorDocument and query string parsing to get the variables needed. I do not have the time or energy to troubleshoot this if it does not work on your server. Sorry!

And why :


View an online example:

http://www.overgrow.com/edge/archive

Then :

Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_OLD_FUNCTION' or `T_FUNCTION' or `T_VAR' or `'}'' in /home/overgrow/HTML/globals/class.mysql.php on line 1

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: mysql in /home/overgrow/HTML/edge/archive/index.php on line 78

I got it....

IIS5 doesn't have the .htacces file , you need to go inside the Site "Properties" and then "Custom Errors" and finally Edit the 404 Error File...

But Still not work at all, look : http://www.bodyweb.it/vbullettin/archive/


Help, please...

Now I got the redirection, but the script (index.php) doesn't detect the forwarding.

Search REQUEST_URI and replace it with QUERY_STRING in index.php if you are running IIS5 .

I have had it installed for 2 months now, and Google did not pick up any more of my vB than it had before.
This is my old URL.. but google did index it

:surprised:

You need a link from your main page to the archive...just submitting it to google isn't enough..google needs to see links to that page or it won't like it...
