Would this file still work for 1.1b3p?
Scratch that, I just read the previous page.

NooB alert!!!

I have the Googlebot mod, but I can't find this one, which the author recommends I install with it...

Can you give me a clue, pretty-please?

[beemer]

its the who.template.php  attached to the bottom of the first post 

[kat]

I didn't see the attachment...

Cheers, Beemer!

I found that the SSI file wouldn't access, because it was in a different case to the one it was looking for. It wanted SSI and the file was Ssi. I just renamed it and it went through that bit, fine.

It did, however, tell me that accessing "ManagePermission.php". The file's there and it's permissions are set to write.

Any clues as to what it's trying to do? I know squat about php, sadly, even though I've successfully edited a few indextemplate...

Is there anything I can do, to find-out what's going wrong?

[Owdy]

I dont understand your issue?. This is just modifyed Who.template.php .

[kat]

THAT was the issue. As I said, I know squat about php. Hence, I didn't know that Who.template.php needed changing.

Now, I'll have to try and figure-out what the modification should be!

At least I, now, have a clue.

Ta!

This topic is about just custom theme file (Who.template.php). Just take it from first post un upload to your theme folder. Thats it.

If you got some other issue, start new topic about it to support forums. Thanks!

[kat]

That's just confused me even more. I thought it was relevant to this topic.

Oh, well. We'll do without the mod.

Ho-hum.

[Owdy]

No, this topic is about one custom theme file. Thats all. Start new topic about your broblem in there http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?board=9.0

I just followed a link in the googlebot mod page, so thought it was relevant to it.

I'll forget it and try and muddle through. Less likely to offend, then.

Ok ... this installation i'm sure is easy for you guys but us SMF newbies need a bit of additional help.

I've installed "Googlebot & Spiders Mod" via Package Manager within my SMF forum.

I read ... "STRONGLY recommended to install this mod also (for a detailed view of what is being crawled):
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=19243.0" .... which got me here ... this is a Mod right which in turn can be installed?

So I uploaded the file 'Who[1][1].template.php' it into my 'themes/apollo' folder (apollo being the theme I use).

So what now?  What do I see that is different? Nothing has change from my Forum admin point of view evrthing looks the same.

HELP .....

You can see where I struggled. Thanks.

It does seem to be a problem, here. If you're a NooB, you seem to be looked down upon. Because of this, I use SMF, myself, but won't recommend it, sadly.

I found someone who knows more about it and they sorted it, for me. If I can find out what they did, I'll get back to you, you Egyptian God(dess).

I THINK that who.php has to be in the "sources" directory, not in the individual theme directory. Mine isn't in any of the themes, anyway.

I was going to attach a copy of it to this. Reading through it might've given you a clue. But, I don't seem to have the option of attaching it, sadly. Can I PM it to you?

Did you rename it to Who.template.php? Usually, if you watch who's online, you get an unsorted list with guests, spiders/bots and members. This template divides that list; so you have a row for members, a row for guests and a row for spiders. If you don't see any difference, you might want to try to clear your cache, pressing ctrl-F5.

That is correct. Who.php is located in the /Sources directory, as where Who.template.php is, being a templatefile thus part of a theme, is located in the Themes/theme* directory, as where theme* is the theme you are using.
In this case, the file Who.template.php, attached to the first post of this topic, need to be in the Themes/theme* directory.

[kat]

Odd, that.  Who.template.php is in my "Themes/Default" directory, but none of the other themes. Yet, it works on all themes.

Most odd. Maybe the lady that helped me did it a different way, ay?

[Webrunner]

All themes use settings and files of the default theme.
That is why it is called default theme

[kat]

To a point, I have to agree. Pity they can't all use the same indextemplate, too, innit?
