Threads from my site are not showing up on Google, Yahoo, etc. Does anyone know what the problem is here and how I can fix it?

They probably have not indexed them yet. Do you allow guests to view threads?

Also you can try this robots.txt file...It helps the bots waste less time indexing unnecessary files. The file is attached.

Give it a day or two and it should do the job.

Thanks Bradley. Where do I place the robots.txt file?

In your site root directory (ie. accessible from "yourdomain.com/robots.txt").

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
