Hi ancerick,

1. What Version did you use?
2. Have you create an "redirect to:" at the article? http://faq.phpwcms-docu.de/14_61_en.html
3. Using JS?
4. Please give us a link?

Hi ancerick,

I don´t support this clone of phpWCMS called ecwador wcms. I can´t see the right copyright at Login and HTML code. :twisted:

Code: Select all

(www .allando .ee) ( www .ecwador .ee)
Your problem is clear for me.

same as I can see - it's not possible to get support if GPL is broken. Please fix that first or contact the person has setup the website for you.

lol the problem is that i took over that project from a previous person who worked here .. seems he messed with some part he shouldnt have.. :wink: oh well first can u tell me what file should i change and to what .. i dont realy give a crap about changeing it to anything u guys want rofl :lol: :lol:

what a hell is GPL?... anyway im open to sugestions .. just make em simple :P :lol:

if its part of copyright i seriously cant c the reason it has been edited out... id be happy to put it back there.. im sure no-one would mind :wink:

but thers one thing i have to know .. is it possible to get it working with seartch engines or not?

yes it is possible to get it working for search engines too. But
1. it's a frame based website
2. this is what a search engines is seeing

Code: Select all

<script language="javascript">
document.write( unescape( '%3C%21%44%...
</script>
You can guess = nothing. Disable JavaScript and reload. And that's the same view for a search engine.

And yes GPL is the licence under which phpwcms is released: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/licenses.html

Better to switch the site to a current release of phpwcms.

current release? it seems like hell of a lot of work... couldnt i just edit some parts of the website? what if the guy has built in some stuff that get a conflict with the current release? id be fucked then :roll: ..

could u just copy/past some stuff that needs to be put in general form that would fix this...?
im new to PHP but maybe i could just put some text between <!-- and //--> tags? so it would be part of evry pages source and all be good? besides i have never set up a module and i seriously cant risk of that screwing up the page... i already had to fix other problems with that site and it has bee enuff for me :roll:

i could also clean up the login so it would read phpWCMS

hey this is really impossible because it's not known how many changes are done in the version of phpwcms you use. :?: Or are you willing to pay for it?

You should really read the link about the meta-tags. :D
A search engine no matter if google or another
need some information to index your page.

no they are not the same. See - this is written using javascript - and javascript stuff is not visible for search engines - and it uses frames too.
