Conditional Signatures - Specify Excluded Users, NOT WORKING?!

Ekka · #1 08-24-2007, 12:53 AM

To show what I did in the CP I screen shot it, I am user ID 1 and put a link in my sig but asked that it be excluded from rel=nofollow.

Went and checked on the board and URL still had rel=nofollow.

WHY?

Oleg Ignatiuk · #2 08-24-2007, 05:04 AM

Hello,

don't you have "Rel=nofollow for external URLs" option enabled in vbseocp?

Ekka · #3 08-24-2007, 06:50 AM

I have ...

Quote:

Add rel="nofollow" to ALL External URLs

set to yes

Which means (to me anyway) that all outbound URL's are rel=nofollow

However what if a member wants his in his signature working?

Oleg Ignatiuk · #4 08-24-2007, 09:16 AM

You should disable that option then or add external domain to the Whitelist in vbseocp.

Disabling that option would then allow all links out of forum!

That would also allow all links for that URL out of forum, not just the sig links.

Are you staring to see the problem here?

Hello,

you can try to modify Conditional Signatures postbit_display_complete plugin code:
BEFORE THE LAST CLOSING "}" add the following:

PHP Code:

                     else
$this->post['signature']=preg_replace('#(<a\s+)#is','\\1rel="novbseo" ',$this->post['signature']);

and manually enable this option in config_vbseo.php file:

PHP Code:

      define('VBSEO_ALLOW_REL_NOVBSEO',   1);

I'm sorry, I really have limited experience with this and had some-one else load this plug in.

You'll have to guide me like a guide dog to a blind person as to where I find this stuff.

I looked in templates but could not find Conditional Signatures postbit_display_complete plugin.

So please, do post heirarchial info of how to navigate to it.

Oleg is referring to the plugin manager

Ekka · #9 08-25-2007, 09:14 AM

Thanks Brandon and Oleg

I made the adjustments and now it works like this.

Whitelist in VbSEO CP:- adding a URL here will remove the rel=nofollow rule everywhere including signatures.

Conditional Signatures:- Specify excludeduser ID here means users sig will have no rel=nofollow

However if user is dropping links in posts those will have rel=nofollow .... works good.

--------------------------

What you cannot do is this:-

You cannot unblock it in the post but block it in the sig, that's because the only way you can unblock in the post is via the Whitelist (in VbSEO CP) which over rides and unblocks the sig regardless of the Conditional Signatures hack.

So, is there any way you can fix this?

Oleg Ignatiuk · #10 08-25-2007, 12:54 PM

Hello,

please try to modify the plugin code a bit differently:
BEFORE THE LAST CLOSING "}" add the following:

PHP Code:

                     $this->post['signature']=preg_replace('#(<a\s )#is','\\1rel="novbseo" ',$this->post['signature']);

(i.e. remove "else" statement)

That will make Conditional Signatures manage all links in signatures and vBSEO will not affect them at all.

Ekka · #11 08-25-2007, 06:02 PM

No

That doesn't work.

The Conditional Signatures doesn't work at all, loses all influence.

Oleg Ignatiuk · #12 08-26-2007, 09:51 AM

What is your full plugin code now?

Ekka · #13 08-27-2007, 01:55 AM

Here you go, but I reverted it to your 1st edit option.

}

else
$this->post['signature']=preg_replace('#(<a\s+)#is','\\1rel="novbseo" ',$this->post['signature']);

}

Oleg Ignatiuk · #14 08-27-2007, 03:42 AM

You should replace

PHP Code:

  else
$this->post['signature']=preg_replace('#(<a\s+)#is','\\1rel="novbseo" ',$this->post['signature']);

with:

PHP Code:

  $this->post['signature']=preg_replace('#(<a\s+)#is','\\1rel="novbseo" ',$this->post['signature']);

That works for me.

Ekka · #15 08-27-2007, 04:24 AM

It does not work for me.

The board has rel=nofollow set by default.

With that modified code just above whether or not I have the user ID in the Specified Excluded Users it makes no difference.

The sig URL does not have rel=nofollow
