Show Thread Enhancements - Vbulletin Social Content Locker [Lite] - Pay With Like , Tweet and +1

Do you still place social buttons on every page of your website? But visitors don?t like/share your content as often as you would like?
You should give people a reason why they need to click social buttons on your website. Even if people really like your content, website or fanpage, they don?t click the buttons because they don?t worry about you, your benefits or your traffic. It?s not their problem.
But ask people to ?pay? with a Like/Tweet/+1 to get access to your content, to get a discount, to download, to read an ending of your article, to watch a video or to view a funny picture. And it will start to work as it should be!
Social Locker is a jQuery plugin that locks your most valuable site content behind a set of social buttons until the visitor likes, shares, +1s or tweets your page. It helps to improve social performance of your website, get more likes/shares, build quality followers and attract more traffic from social networks.

and again...
unlock not working good..
i tested bridge's site...
i viewed page's source code...
and again i found hidden content there...
this is not healty ...
problem with google penalty....
because of we must use again a hide hack in this lock bbcode...
[lock][hide] content [/hide][/lock]

is is not working for you or not working good as you think ?
you can view the content in source code .. yes
why ?
we can hide the content and unlock it by ajax but in this case search engines will not be able to archive the content .. when Google visits the page it is a normal page with unlocked content .. I don't think social share/like action is such expensive to hide content after strict security .. and it is completely search engine friendly

Search engines can see the content normally..

Thank you. I will buy the pro version when those features are implemented. Please feel free to abuse me in testing this for you

Yes and they can see that it is HIDDEN from the users before they click, and this is to my knowledge black hat.

Well , I don't think this is true .. but I can Disable the locker completely if search engine bot is detected ( I will do that if necessary ).

That Is Interesting Option to LOCK Every First post only, If LOCK Every First post Option set to NO, Then lock threads, not posts.

This is a nice suggestion

I'd strongly encourage something different.
I am sure that giving to the search engine content that users cannot see is back hat seo. This is called CLOACKING, and is definitely a pagerank killer.

See Wiki:
Cloaking is a search engine optimization (SEO) technique in which the content presented to the search engine spider is different from that presented to the user's browser. This is done by delivering content based on the IP addresses or the User-Agent HTTP header of the user requesting the page.
