Why show rep buttons to guest if they cant give rep?

IMO, those buttons should be hided from guests. There is no reason to show buttons if you cant use them.

We have a FFFV bug report about this. We want to do more than just hide from guests (i.e. hide the buttons if you don't have permission, or if you have already repped the post, etc.), but there are resource considerations to make, so the change hasn't been implemented yet.

How can I prevent to disallow crowlers to try to vote?
I have 21.994 errors "not reachable" as follows:


http://www.discusclub.net/forum/index.php?app=core&module=global&section=reputation&do=add_rating&app_rate=forums&.......


I've tried with adding this string into the robots.txt:

Disallow: /*add_rating
and

Disallow: /index.php?app=core&module=global&section=reputation&do=add_rating&app_rate=forums&type

But it does't work.

Try Disallow: /*add_rating* Not that I'm familiar with robots.txt syntax, but maybe it ignored your first example because add_rating wasn't the end of the URL


Thank you very much, I will try this.
I will not install IPSeo 1.5 until will be released a stable version, actually with 1.4 there are less issues.

IPSEO 1.5.0 didn't solve the problem, and it seems that the crowlers are able to see the link, even if the option is disabled and not visible for guests.

  • IS there some optional tool or way to solve this? 23.500 errors actually.
  • Where, by default, are included the bots (group), if they search and find those strings?

Thanks.

Try



Disallow: /*add_rating*

on this strain... Try
Disallow: /*reputation*
or
Disallow: /*index.php?app=core&module=global&section=reputation*
EG, add_rating may be too far along in the string....
and for that matter... why is google crawling $this->request['do']'s at ALL?
Disallow: /*do=*
any do= would cause a crawl error.. because google cant "do" anything.

Why not:

Disallow: /*index.php?app=core*

?

Wouldn't it still crawl the FURLs?

Have you tried adding a / at end of line as if no / at end then believe robots will index


The Disallow: line without the trailing slash (/) tells all robots to index everything. If you have a line that looks like this:


Disallow: /private/


It tells the robot that it cannot index the contents of that /private/ directory.
