This is a cool mod. Great idea!

Was there a race to release this or something?

Hi,

Just purchased. I was just about to post about my first problem, but I fixed it. Had to enable 'Limit to topics'

So for your sure bots can still scan posts for search engine ?

Thanks for great mod!

Yes, as IPS recognition method is fine.

Thanks for great mod!

Thank you for your purchase. I appreciate it.

[Sull5]

I don't know what this means exactly, but I hope your correct :D

Thank you

[+najaru_1]

purchased, very very good, thanks

[+AlexJ]

Does it work with 3.2.x?

On download page it says, Supported IPS Software Version: 3.1.x+ but change log is different. Can you please confirm so I can go ahead and purchase?

Thanks

[RObiN-HoOD]

I'll wait for v3.2 but is this ok for search engines?

[JahLion]

Just bought this hook but can it be still used on 3.1.4 because i don't have no beta 3.2 on my site, at the moment.

[JahLion]

Nvm i've install the hook and it working nice with 3.1.4,if any one care.

Only problem with this hook it's blocking search engine bots,you say it will not but guess you not tested it very well to know because google,yahoo,msn is being block they can't access the site like guest. :mad:

In google webmaster tools i'm getting bunch errors in my sitemap also lot 404 (Not Found) errors,seem this hook is useless if it going block bots so i'm not going to used it till this issue fixed.

maybe if you put the spiders inside a group like a "bots" and put permissions like a member group this could fix it, i´ll try it and come back later. also maybe Dawpi can check this and update it whit the fix.

[Enigm@]

Well, Dawpi gives good support to his customers i know by experience, maybe is out for job or school reasons, when he see this post sure he fix it, just wait a little, i am waiting too.

[JahLion]
