Hi there, If some topic are only for members, then search engines (like google, yahoo, etc..) not indexing. So my question is how to create special account for search engines? Thanx a lot |

Why would you want to do that? If you create say a password protected topic surely you protected it for a reason? Otherwise if search engines can read those topics, then that information will appear across the whole internet which would kind of make your member only area a big waste of time

If you have not done so already you could create a robots.txt file You http://janeandrobot.com/post/Managing-Robots-Access-To-Your-Website.aspx - can read more about it here and as much as it can be used to stop search engines, you can also specify what they can search I'm sure there may be a possible modification but I cannot answer your question - sorry ------------- http://www.123simples.com/" rel="nofollow - Visit 123 Simples Web Design |
