Funny enough, same results I got when I tried to mod it. Mail is sent out with the subject line reading: (No Subject) The body of the email does display the correct subject line from the post: Subject: ONCE Posted by: B T Posted on: Jun 12, 2013, 11:03 PM - body of message displayed here - At the moment my eml file has this: To: <%user_email%> Subject: <%post_loop.0.post_subject%> From: Bud <<%admin_email%>> New message(s) posted to Bud: <%forum_name%> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- <%loop post_loop%> Subject: <%post_subject%> Posted by: <%post_username%> Posted on: <%post_date%> <%post_message_text%> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- <%endloop%> <%if more_posts%> Not all posts have been listed since the forum archive is limited to <%subscribe_email_max_posts%> posts.

Google does not manually check the site so it has no idea which listing are free or paid - everything is automated and even if you explain how the system is setup they don't really care. Took me from Dec, 2012 to March, 2013 to get re-indexed. e41213fde8ea3de8a40d8f1d35ae00cb Jun 10, 2013, 4:32 PM http://www.gossamer-threads.com/forum/Products_C9/Gossamer_Links_C5/Discussions_F18/Re%3A_%5Bjanx%5D_Adding_Nofollow_Tag_to_All_Links_P315047/?page=unread#315047 How about trying something like this: Instead of charging money for listing sites, make it clear that you are charging money for 1) Premium listing + 2) Editor's review or 3) Some other reason. Linking Structure In your directory you can have direct link (do follow) to every site listed in your directory. However, since the premium listings are actually verified by you (or editor) you have a good reason to list them higher & also have a custom design layout for their detailed page. Now this also means that there should be a free options for others (related sites) to get listed in your directory - however being honest to the site design, you can maintain detail page with different design - that allows users to notice that they are not premium/paid members. In this manner, direct listing is no longer a premium feature & since this option is also available for free users, you will not be breaking any rules either. Note: Is my idea perfect - na, I am sure there can be others who will come up with lot better ideas - but till you find them, this one might work just fine.

Whether or not to keep a Directory live in the Google era is going to be a struggle, especially if you charge for submission. It all depends on how well your Directory is doing, where the majority of your traffic is coming from and the overall revenue compared to the expenses. If you still make a profit what's the harm in keeping it active? Myself, I don't depend on the Directory to make a big profit, but it makes enough to sustain itself. Personally, I don't want to see the big boys win and will keep the Directory active with or without traffic, haunting the Internet...... It annoys the hell out of me that we all seem to be working for Google for free, following their rules, complying with their demands, and letting them dictate what's available online. If you decide to keep your Directory active, I wish you great success. deb161ded0adc401a03c11dfb8d9a41e Jun 10, 2013, 9:08 AM http://www.gossamer-threads.com/forum/Products_C9/Gossamer_Links_C5/Discussions_F18/Re%3A_%5Bjanx%5D_Adding_Nofollow_Tag_to_All_Links_P315045/?page=unread#315045 Thanks for sharing your experiences, janx! I hope your directory has been re-indexed since. Our directory has been online since 2000, but I have been wondering if it's still worth maintaining in the light of Google's omnipresence and dominance. 8d92ff4ebe26abc4e8e591d41bcf45ef Jun 9, 2013, 4:32 PM http://www.gossamer-threads.com/forum/Products_C9/Gossamer_Links_C5/Discussions_F18/Re%3A_%5BThomas.%5D_Adding_Nofollow_Tag_to_All_Links_P315044/?page=unread#315044 The directory was completely banned from Google (de-indexed all pages). Suspected of trying to manipulate PageRank. Basically what it comes down to is any type of paid links must have the rel="nofollow tag" or Google thinks that you are an evil site owner that is intentionally trying to pass Page rank. There is no getting around it, Google wants all directories wiped off the face of the Internet and unless you comply with their demands, eventually they will find you and de-index the entire site. The directory had been online since 1998, started charging a submission fee about 10 years ago. Implemented the review fee to discourage spam sites from submitting to it, had no idea that I had to include the no-follow tag on all external links because I did not consider them to be paid links. Webmasters were being charged for a service, not a guaranteed listing in the Directory. The email I received from Google was very vague, took me a while to figure out what the problem was. So if you ever receive an email from Google stating that your site is suspected of trying to manipulate Page Rank - save yourself a lot of headaches and just add the rel="nofollow tag to all external links. Yes, you will probably lose business but if you have enough traffic to the directory and charge a reasonable submission (review) fee, people will still pay to have their site listed. Hope this helps the next person that gets targeted by Google. dfaed9fb2c9ae5908b2a4e2e47e5fba7 Jun 9, 2013, 8:50 AM http://www.gossamer-threads.com/forum/Products_C9/Gossamer_Links_C5/Discussions_F18/Re%3A_%5Bjanx%5D_Adding_Nofollow_Tag_to_All_Links_P315043/?page=unread#315043 Just wondering, as this might be relevant to other GLinks owners, what kind of problems did you have with Google? 126fc8cbb3741e9ed8bb81932ec4c18f Jun 9, 2013, 4:58 AM http://www.gossamer-threads.com/forum/General_C8/Perl_Programming_F14/I_can't_post_anywhere!!!_P315042/?page=unread#315042 I can't post anywhere!!! ecf6b69423b37ca63ad8db348eb8c193 Jun 3, 2013, 9:14 AM http://www.gossamer-threads.com/forum/Products_C9/Gossamer_Forum_C7/Discussion_F22/Re%3A_%5BAndy%5D_subscribe.pl_change_email_subject_line_P315041/?page=unread#315041 thanks Andy, I'll plug that in and let you know.

Every time a new message goes into the system, few and far between, they get sent out to all users via a cron that runs every 5 minutes.

I thought I'd just add that variable, since it was used below...but I get (No Subject)? in the email title if I do that. I then tried putting that loop command on either side of the email subject line, leaving the variable in the middle. Same results. Then used grep to try to find where that loop was originally coming from so I could try modifing a new loop command...no luck. any help appreciated. 3339804a71b5b6de5eef77c5b07841a7 Jun 1, 2013, 1:18 PM http://www.gossamer-threads.com/forum/Products_C9/Gossamer_Links_C5/Discussions_F18/Re%3A_%5BAndy%5D_Latest_posts_from_wordpress_on_home.html_P315034/?page=unread#315034 Cool, it's working fine Thanks Matthias gpaed.de 4e60785e8accd036acd7acb3e2a11897 Jun 1, 2013, 2:47 AM http://www.gossamer-threads.com/forum/Products_C9/Gossamer_Links_C5/Discussions_F18/Re%3A_%5BMatthias70%5D_Latest_posts_from_wordpress_on_home.html_P315033/?page=unread#315033 Hi, You could try adding this into the query: Code: AND post_type = "post" i.e: Code: my $query = qq|SELECT * FROM ${prefix}posts WHERE post_parent < 1 AND post_status = 'publish' AND post_type = "post" ORDER BY ID DESC LIMIT 3|; Not 100% sure thats right - but having a quick look that seems like it matches Andy (mod) andy@ultranerds.co.uk ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Want to give me something back for my help?
