Qubabos Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I notice that sometimes googlebot try to fetch urls with lists of followers in topics, files and articles, for example : http(x)://siteurl.com/notifications/?do=followers&follow_app=forums&follow_area=topic&follow_id=* http(x)://siteurl.com/notifications/?do=followers&follow_app=downloads&follow_area=file&follow_id=* http(x)://siteurl.com/notifications/?do=followers&follow_app=cms&follow_area=records1&follow_id=* It would be great to add there an noindex tag on those url's and limit those only to registered members and hide them from guests ? I can't see a reason why those informations should be public visible ? Maybe solution is to throw noindex tag as search/tags urls : and http 403 with this : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure that is the default behavior. Do you have an example where it doesn’t work this way? It might just be a theme problem for example.

Adriano Faria Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Nope, guests can see followres. Try it as a guest: https://invisioncommunity.com/notifications/?do=followers&follow_app=forums&follow_area=topic&follow_id=429239 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qubabos Posted November 28, 2017 Author Share Posted November 28, 2017 @opentypenope, this is not a theme issue. @Adriano Faria - exactly those Followers can bee seen by guests not only on topics but article categories, database records : https://invisioncommunity.com/notifications/?do=followers&follow_app=downloads&follow_area=file&follow_id=8829 and files : https://invisioncommunity.com/notifications/?do=followers&follow_app=downloads&follow_area=file&follow_id=8829 I dont see a good reason why this should be public visible. 22 minutes ago, opentype said: Pretty sure that is the default behavior.

If guests can see profiles, they also can also access them from the following list. I have that turned off on most of my sites and the links are suppressed in this case. Makes sense to me.

Adriano Faria Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 IPS\core\modules\front\system\notifications::followers().

opentype Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 20 hours ago, Qubabos said: there is no such Ah, sorry. I finally see the misunderstanding. You were talking about the links to the list, I was talking of what happens on that list – which is that the profile entries are linked or not linked depending on the profile permission settings. I see your point now – though I am not very bothered by it, since usernames are shown anyway all over an IPS community, like in the topics itself.
