  1. Duplicate content is content that can be accessible by more than one URL - so yeah, I'd say it's duplicate content. I'm not an SEO expert either, though ;) Point is, not only can the files be different, but you can use htaccess, scripting language, apache, etc to display different content based on whether they entered foo.com or foo.com/index.php, so it's no different from any other page Google indexes.
  2. domain.com doesn't have to be domain.com/index.something, so no, it can't just assume they're the same page.
  3. I don't know the specifics of your SVN setup, but I'd think it would be pretty easy to modify the script you guys use to generate file diff reports to simply copy those files from an up-to-date working copy. An upgrade package will automatically be built for you at the same time you generate the file diff reports. I do this at work, but my SVN setup is pretty basic.
  4. Pretty sure that means you're guaranteed a (free) upgrade to a "major version" within 5 days (but it's usually much much faster than 5). Not sure what constitutes a major version though (e.g., x.0.0 or x.x.0), so I'd wait until a staff member confirms :)
  5. I haven't seen abuse of it. The solution is to remove the avatars of those abusing it, not disable the entire feature for everyone.
  6. svn log "$workingDir/mckeelschools/trunk/$schoolToBuild" -vq -r$startingRev:$endingRev | egrep '^ {3}[AMR] ' | cut -c6- | sort | uniq > "$buildDir/$filesName" echo "Copying files over..." for i in $(cat $buildDir$filesName); do if [[ "$i" =~ "mck_kernel" ]] ; then continue fi basePath=${i/mckeelschools/trunk/$schoolToBuild/} dr=`dirname $basePath` echo $basePath if ! [ -d $buildDir$patchDir/$dr ] ; then mkdir -p $buildDir$patchDir/$dr fi cp $workingDir$i $buildDir$patchDir/$basePath done
  7. You could also just use a file diff program. If I remember, I'll post the relevant bits from my script. I use it to build patches that contains changed files between revision x and y. The command to get the changed files is a one liner.
  8. Matt probably wrote a bash script to pull a list of changed files between revisions from SVN. Once you have that it's easy to format it for BBCode.
  9. It's probably Links :x I never went back and profiled it or even take a quick look at the performance I haven't heard of any problems tho, so let's go with the whole out of sight out of mind thing
  10. If a forum is moderated by a specific group/person, the names will be listed at the bottom of the forum index next to the legend under "Forum led by".
  11. Allow admins to create "search templates". Each search template would add a tab to searching and would add defined parameters to the search (in addition to the keywords entered). Admins could then create a search template that searches in x forums, y albums, z download categories, etc. One obvious application is combining all support related resources into one search. If you're feeling adventurous you could even create a "What's new in Customer Resources" search that would add a date restriction to it. [edit] Bonus points if you can allow inserting of search boxes that default to a template into the skin :D
  12. File Name: Links System 3.1.1 File Submitter: Brandon D File Submitted: 10 Jun 2009 File Category: Applications Links System 3.1 is the first version of the popular Links System 3.0 for IP.Board 3.0.

  13. I like how you're comparing apples to oranges here ;) You're certainly entitled to your opinion, but comparing this tiny (w/ respect to employee size) web services company to large hosting companies and banks isn't helping your cause. Perhaps you're making these analogies to show that IPS should grow with its client base to lessen response times. I'd tend to agree, but being small is one aspect of IPS I like, as a customer.
  14. Someone's a little short tempered. Arguably your post is feedback, but it's obviously a bug in the software and would be more easily addressed in the bug tracker. And yeah, people read it, especially those who matter: people who actually fix the bugs. The very nature of the bug tracker will pretty much guarantee acknowledgement from a staff member. You posted in a public forum: expect public responses.
  15. Cause they don't offer complimentary coffee.
  16. IIRC, the inability to check view permissions on subsequent pages played a large role in just linking to it.

    Where's the dot?

    The dot's been missing for almost a year now (preview board), and someone is just now noticing it :P I'd hazard a guess it was removed because a) it clashed with the design, b) name recognition (IPB vs IP.B) or c) no one thought about it ;)
  18. This forum is for feedback on our products and services. If you have any support related questions you will need to post in the proper peer-to-peer forums or submit a ticket to your client area as mentioned above in the forum rules. Thanks.
  19. I tweeted the same idea to Matt some time ago when I was working on the comments section of Links System. I believe his response was that abstracting out topics/posts was considered for IPB3 but it didn't make the cut due to time constraints (and, let's face it, abstracting out the core feature of a discussion forum so that it can be efficiently implemented by and properly integrated into other apps isn't exactly the easiest of tasks).
  20. There isn't a whole lot of new stuff in 3.0.2, it just contains numerous bug fixes and enhancements. There are a few 'new' things as well. The 3.0.2 announcement will outline the changes :)

    IPB GDK?

    Pinned thread in Customer Lounge :) http://forums.invisionpower.com/topic/286750-ip-board-3-gdk/
  22. I'm pretty sure backups run around this time of the night. Check now - it should be back to normal :)
  23. I agree. A single point to generate all of the XML files for a single app would be nice. Going from one development release to the next, I'd sometimes forget to export an updated language XML file or what not. The single point to build your release would help me remember to grab everything (and I wouldn't have to use my checklist anymore :P)
  24. I hate when links open in a new window. If I want it in a new window (tab), I'll make the minimal effort to hold the cmd key as I click the link.
  25. Moving the post button out of the work flow is counter intuitive. When filling out any form, electronic or not, it's natural to work from the top down. In this case, after you write your post content you would look down for the submit button. I wouldn't mind seeing the attachment system hidden like the post options, which would clear up a bit of space between the editor and the post button. If a post button was added above the editor (which I'm not against), then the one below would need to remain, and it would have to be added in such a way that it doesn't clutter up the post screen.
