Googlebot & Spiders

[Zorac]

Hello all..  Please,  please, please help me.   I installed googlebot and after it installed with no errors, I clicked on Features and Options in my admin panel and this is what I get:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare modifygooglebotsettings() (previously declared in /home/daddypla/public_html/forums/Sources/ModSettings.php:390) in /home/daddypla/public_html/forums/Sources/ModSettings.php on line 441


I am running SMF 1.1 RC2 and I tried to install googlebot_v105_smfrc2_standard.      Thanks in advance..

it sounds like you installed it twice?

[Zorac]

Yep. Someone may post the other 2 parts of the file that needs to be inserted into modsettings.php.

edit: sorry, I have no idea and am waiting too.

open up the xml file in a text editor, even if you have a very basic grasp of html or some similar language you should be able to put yoru way threw it...

just remember in xml the search strings are kinda backwards, when you see search position="before" it means that the search string is before, and add your text immediatly after...

keep in mind, the search strings wont be the same as are what in your file, otherwise it would of installed in the first place...

Actually, I installed.  It didn't work, then I uninstalled.  and installed again and that is where I am at now..   Hopefully I will get an answer here because I would love to get this working.

do you have any other mods installed? youll have to manually edit the ModSettings.php file to manually remove the duplicate entries, sound like its just the one...  go to the bottom and youll fine a function called modifygooglebotsettings(), and if you look up a bit, youll probably see it again, remove one of the two functions in its entirety (include all the code between the { and } that follows it, both function should be delinated from the other code with // begin googlebot code (which is right above the first line of the function) and a // end googlebot code (right after the last line of the function)

do this and hten hope nothing else is duplicated...

There is still 3 bits of code that needs to be put into the modsettings.php file.  When you apply it, it 'test fails' for the modsettings.

Thats what I understand anyhow. But I have know idea what code to put in but one piece. And thats using googlebot_v105_smfrc2_standard in smf RC 2.

Ok..   Did exactly as you said.   It was in there 3 times.  deleted 2 of them..   Now when I go to Features and Options I get this error.

Thank you for your help.  I do appreciate it.

You could uninstall all packages, reupload the modsettings.php file for your forum program, and then reinstall your packages.

Maybe   Sounds like something I would do. But my sites just begun. Fix once and for all... any comments on if that is an option for  keith021773?

Well.  I got the features and option list working again by deleting all the double posts about googlebots in the modsettings.php file.   I'm gonna try and install it again then if I have to reedit the file again to see if I can get it to work.    I'll post back what happens.

*EDIT*   ok..   That worked.   Polymath.   What I did was I installed Googlebot and it messed up the Features and Option list, so I editted the file modsettings.php and I did a search for every instance of googlebot and there were at least 3 different places where it was in there twice.  So, I looked at the entire part of each instance.   Each instance of it will start with //Insert Googlebot (or something like that).  Delete them but leave one instance of each part in there..  Does that make sense?   I'm not a very good teacher..   Then save and go back to your admin and try to go back into Features and Option List..      Hope this helps.   

[Polymath]

  Yeah I know what you mean. It helps.  3-2=1

[keith021773]

Tell me if it works for you.

[Polymath]

Nope don't work for me. I have no instances of googlebot code in it. Thats my problem its not installing at all. I need to know what 3 parts I need it put into my modsettings.php.  Can you post them?

[Charles LePage]

Awesome!

Would we lose our current installed mods when we upgrade?

My Googlebot mod uninstalled when I upgraded to 1.06, and when I tried to reinstall it, it said:

Install Actions for archive Googlebot_v104_smf1.0.x-1.1b2.zip:
The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF.

[desistyle]

[Polymath]

Here's a fixed ZIP file: http://users.tpg.com.au/dan15/smfmods/Googlebot_v104_smf1.0.6.zip
NOTE: I didn't make this MOD, I'm just hosting this fixed version of it.
Could someone please host this elsewhere. Or, could a moderator or someone attach the file to the first post?

it will work fine with an ssi install failure (as long as the others are all good as youve shown), you just loose the ssi functionallity aspect of it, but if your not calling ssi anywhere in the rest of your site to show the users online, that doesnt matter...
