    Anybody with Google Ad Sense Search set up know how to remove user sigs from search results?

    I just ran a couple searches (i use google custom search for guests). I was not able to find any signatures in any results.

    I do use our VBSEO Conditional Signatures product (available in the downloads area) and disable signatures for guests, so that may be why. Try it.

    Right, guest posting is off. But i also limited guest searching ability to use google custom search, not MY database server to save on load.

    That's cool. But I don't think that will help me with my search results problem in Google?

    I thought this is what you were asking for. If not, can you re-phrase?

    Hi caliman,

    From what I understand you don't want your user's signatures showing up in search results. What Brian suggested was using vBSEO Conditional signatures.

    This will not show anyone's signature to Guests, as a search bot is a Guess themselves they will not see the signatures and so will not index them, your signed in memebers will still see them and so they will still have value.
