Optimus

[Bugo]

If page is only one, page number not appears.
Can I see a screenshot of your settings?

[Dblog]

okay i posted a screenshot of settings above

[Bugo]

Well, I have the same settings but don't have any problem. Do you have any mods that can change page titles/numbers?

[Dblog]

no more mods modifying page titles.
this problem is seen only for boards with topics in 1 page.
if there are 2 pages, then no issue.

for topic pages, i haven't seen any issue

[Bugo]

Can you give me test admin account to PM?

[Dblog]

sent you PM
just append /discus to access SMF at the end of the link i sent

[Bugo]

Well, you forgot to mention you are using an older version of Optimus. Current last stable - 1.7.1, you have - 1.7

i find similar errors with Sources/Subs-Optimus.php
it generates sitemap with deleted topic numbers and 404 errors are caused.

You know, if any mod has errors, it's not longer awesome I'll fix it next release.

I have a question 

This is the suggested robots.txt from the Optimus Brave mod:

Code Select Expand

User-agent: Googlebot-Image
Disallow: /

User-agent: YandexImages
Disallow: /

User-agent: msnbot-MM
Disallow: /

User-agent: Googlebot-Mobile
Allow: /*wap
Disallow: /

User-agent: YandexImageResizer
Allow: /*wap
Disallow: /

User-agent: MediaPartners-Google
Allow: /

User-agent: *
Allow: /$
Allow: /*forum$
Allow: /*page*page
Allow: /*type=rss
Disallow: /*action
Disallow: /*;
Disallow: /*PHPSESSID
Allow: /*board*.html$
Allow: /*topic*.html$
Disallow: /
Crawl-delay: 5
Clean-param: PHPSESSID /index.php
Host: www............com

But i want my arcade to be found by search engines, i have a game site
Is this the right robots.txt for me? Because google webmaster tools tels me that 81 links are forbidden by robots.txt,
so that's not a good thing i suppose?

And i have another question:

Code Select Expand

Please use only the values from content parameter of the meta tags.
Example: <meta name="google-site-verification" content="VALUE" />

What should be the "Value" here?

Sorry for my ignorance  i will learn one day with the help from you guys

[Bugo]

Well, if you will send link to your site (you can do it via PM), I'll try to analize your links and add some changes to next version of mod.

Also, you can register on http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools, add your site there and learn about robots.txt and other things (like <meta name="bla-bla-bla"... etc).

PM is send thank you very much!

[[Lucien]]

Thank you Bugo for your help!

I have so many questions, i hope it's oke Please let me now if i get annoying


Just downloaded this pdf file from Google

Google's Search Engine Optimization Starter Guide

How does this "Make use of the "description" meta tag" works? Is it implemented in this mod?
Or is it default in SMF?

[[Lucien]]

Sorry i answer my own question, in your mod it says:

Code Select Expand

Metatag keywords
Recommended no more than 20.

I should learn to read
