Googlebot & Spiders

[Jade Elizabeth]

hey thats so cool! i double posted!!

wow howd that happen?

[Mz.Beotch]

I am lost, I have tried to read through 70 pages of errors and fixes, and tried to find the pages I need to install, and still am lost.

I go to install and all are fine but ModSettings.php failure

I tried to understand the .xml file in the zip and cannot (there are no instructions on where to put it, just code)

Help Help Help Also in the first post he states to install the Who.template.php edit, well the attachment is missing from that post so I cant do that either (edit- nevermind i had to login to see it)

EDIT=

Ok I went through it again, modified it so now the mod works, but it doesnt show up in the theme i have. Could someone help me with modifying the BoardIndex.Template.php for DARKDIRGE

Thank you. I have not uploaded the new Who.template.php yet either.

I need help.  I am using SMF 1.1.4.  A year or two ago I installed the Googlebots and Spiders mod.  At some point I uninstalled it and even though the package is no longer present in the package list of installed mods, the mod continues to work and record the hits.  I reinstalled it and then uninstalled it again thinking it may fix the mod. Actually, it got worse.  With no packages listed in the Installed Mods area, I was now getting two instances of the mod.  If a Yahoo spders were crawling it will report that twice as in USERS ONLINE: Yahoo spider, Yahoo spider. 

This has been bad enough but now probably through the last SMF update or maybe the one before, I am getting these errors in the errorlog. 
8: Undefined index: ob_googlebot_stats_lastvisit
This is generating about 20 pages a day. 

There error seems to run through various files but always seems to be on Line 386 or 390.  I really like the program but I need to get untangled from whatever is causing this and see if a later version will work as expected.  I am a little afraid at this point to install a newer version because possibly winding up with  3 instances of this program.  How do I get this to stop?

Not shown below, it will also error on BoardIndex.template.php (eval?)  and Login.template.php

What is this crazy (eval?) thing?

[taurean]

I successfully installed this mod. but i cant see any spiders under 'users online'.  i dint know where to give these permissions. kindly help me

[M_Polenin]

I am using SMF 1.1.4 and for some reason the mod installs correctly, but it does not update the admin panel in the Features and Options configuration page to add the options for this mod.

I think this has become "abandon-ware"

This Googlebot mod is fantastic after reading pages 1 to 10. But it appears many are facing installation issues for earlier versions. There are another 60 pages of messages to read ...... and I am not quite prepared to read all of them. Just hoping to have a shortcut to eternal bliss... Hee hee....

I run SMF 1.1.4 and TP 0.9.8 with the following mods:
Welcome Topic Mod 1.0
SMF Gallery Lite 1.7.5.1
SMF Arcade E2.3.2
Country Flags 1.0.1

I just downloaded Gogglebot 2.0.3. Can someone advise me how to go about installing this great mod and what changes do I need to do and to which files. Thanks in advance to all you experts.

It works only on dfault theme or any theme..

Hello peeps 

I installed this mod last night..
And its done something really strange to my site..

Basically...   Its gone!!!

Have a look [HERE].

I've manually deleted the mod through c/panel.
But Im at a loss as to what else to do.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

EDIT: Fixed!!!
All I did was reinstall my backup..  LOL
I didnt want to, as I thought I would lose alot of info, since my last backup was a week before hand.
But another community member told me that, SMF automatically backs itself up before each MOD installation..
So I just reinstalled before adding this mod
I also wrote my own robot.text and added that to the site.
So problem solved for anyone that may have a similar problem in the future.
Seeya:D
ThankYou in advance

Hi,

I'm still new here.
I tried to install it in my forum which is running SMF 1.1.4 but this came out:-

The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF.

Does it have anything to do with the theme?
My forum is quite "clean". I think I have not installed other mods in it.

Thanks in advance.

Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Ha, I get this often, you just have to go to "packages" and choose "standart files are writable".

I used this mod before but i have problems with uninstalling... I sure hope this is a good tool... although i dont know what really is the purpose of knowing spiders crawl on your web...

I hope its 100% fixed... this is a great tool to know who is the spider and who is the guest...
