Search Vanillaforums.org & Your Google InBound Links Are Broken

edited January 2010 in Vanilla 2.0 - 2.8
More about some suggestions for improving the resources here at Vanilla:

1) I'm trying to use this forum as a resource to find some info - but I don't see any search option. Am I daft?
2) Tried to use Google and looks like you have a routing/htaccess/friendly url issue: site:http://vanillaforums.org/discussions cookie = all links (such as vanillaforums.org/discussions/account/8603/?u=8603) are being rerouting to the forum homepage. IOW, you have no Google in bound links to the innards of this forum content that seem to work.

BTW, the real question I was trying to investigate was re: not being able to log in - my hunch a cookie domain setting issue... If anyone has a link to what I'm sure is a common issue - I'd appreciate it! Thanks much.

  • Sorry that wasn't very clear: searched Google on "site:http://vanillaforums.org/discussions cookie" without the quotes...
  • Re: the cookie domain issue - I think its solved...

    Another suggestion: let the default for cookie domain be same as the app's location - ie, auto generate it - so there isn't the chance to lock the admin out of the admin that would change that setting without having to jump through hoops...

    Thanks much.
