Google bot and Spiders mod for SMF1.1rc3 - default theme

[G6Cad]

Then my guess is that your upgrade/update didnt replace all the files it should have done  :coolsmiley:

Maybe a file permission that just left the files alone on the server

hm strange - upgrading from 1.1rc3 / tp 0.96 to 1.1 / tp 0.97 and my googlebot & spider mod still works fine o.O - didn't need to change anything.

What they are talking about here is a modified Stats Block

Nice one G6, gonna make this into a little mod...

I am now in the habit of making all code changes into a mod, it's so much easier...

Help Guys, my Total Users does not add up the spiders online.  The spiders show up in the count:

Members: 5
Guests: 2
Spiders: 2
Total: 7

What did I miss?  I applied the changes to TPortal.english.php and the TPortalBlocks.Template.php, plus of course I installed the mod.

Partly working, help.

spiders are also included in the guests count so your getting a doubling up of actual counts..

you'll need to do something like guests=guests-spiders

Backup First Always!!!!!

In the default theme

languages/TPortal.english.php

Find:

Code Select Expand


$txt['tp-users'] = 'Users';


Add this after:

Code Select Expand


$txt['tp-hidden'] = 'Hidden';
$txt['tp-buddies'] = 'Buddies';
$txt['tp-spiders'] = 'Spiders';


default/TPortalBlocks.template.php

Find:

Code Select Expand


echo '<br />'.$bullet.$txt['tp-guests'].': '.$online['guests'];
   echo '<br />'.$bullet.$txt['tp-total'].': '.$online['total_users'].'<hr />



Replace with:

Code Select Expand


           echo '<br />'.$bullet.$txt['tp-hidden'].': '.$online['hidden'];
   echo '<br />'.$bullet.$txt['tp-buddies'].': '.$online['buddies'];
   echo '<br />'.$bullet.$txt['tp-guests'].': '.$online['guests'];
         echo '<br />'.$bullet.$txt['tp-spiders'].': '.$online['num_spiders'];
   echo '<br />'.$bullet.$txt['tp-total'].': '.$online['total_users'].'<hr />



Try this one.

That code looks like it still includes the num_spiders in guests you need to reduce the number of guests by the number of spiders to get it to add up to the total_users on-line .. because SMF and TP makes spiders appear as guests because they don't login. what the Spider mod is doing is a separate function that's checking the connections to see if they are a recognised spider. it doesn't alter the number of guests on-line.. so to get it to all addup then you need vto tqake away the num_spiders from Gueses to give you a number of guests that AREN'T Spiders

[rebelrose]

no it works with the mod and shows spiders as spiders and guest as guest, I have had it on my site for some time now

Something didn't go right with your installation then cause I'v had this for weeks now and it works just fine on my site.

Like right now it says:
1 User, 0 Guests, 1 Spider
Raven
Googlebot

its not counting the spider as a guest....

In your settings for the googlebot you need to check the catbox to show spiders as guests.
