hmmn, tried in flock browser and I have successfully log-in. interesting, i will check the theme i am using in firefox, maybe that is the problem.

 

[jayesh]

Great.

By the way admin we loved the banner thing in the footer. Waiting to get my site's banner over there.

I have changed my theme and switch to default but the scenario is the same.

 

[Randall]

Humm... But the theme has nothing to do with it. Moreover I was going to make it such that the default theme will never work and only the current "nameslot" theme will work for all users.

New features:

- Similar Threads function at the bottom of each thread.
- Users cannot delete their own threads and their own posts. They can only edit it and the editing time and I.P. will be logged.
- Can give 5 rep points per day.
- Cannot rate members. Only staff can rate members.
- I.P. range banning on.
- Private forums which are not only visible to some members have been formed. Will make it public when the work is done on it.

I suggest a "Websites for sale" section, how about that?

 

[Randall]

Sure friend. We have the domains for sale section right now. You can post the site there and mention that it is a developed website.

As soon as we have more then 20 threads in the domains for sales section I will make a new category and move the threads over there.

 

[crud3w4re]

k. Also, a NS$ exchange for $$$ and a $$$ for NS$ exchange, similar to NP. A bank exchange. Just an idea, maybe future implementation.

 

[Randall]

Yes I have that in mind. But need a secure bank here. Or someone will generate the NS$'s and clean out the paypal.

So testing it heavily under the conditions.

 

[Randall]

Just changed the header image and the layout on the top to make some space for a 468x60 pixels. I think we will be rotating some nice banners over there.

How does it looks now? Please give me your suggestions.

Very cool, I enjoy posting here! Glad to see you guys are also getting a more active community! Congrats and keep up the good work!

Today's Update. Added Adsense block in the footer of the Forums and the Threads.

Minimum characters for a post or a new thread are now 200 in past it was 0.

So now whenever someone tries to make a post like
"LOL" or "Oops" or "Hey" It will not be allowed by the system itself.

I hope this will help us to maintain the quality of our forums.

 

[Randall]

The threshold is of now 50 characters and have even changed the category icons.

Thought would look more lively then the one we were using.

But still I have them in backup. :grin:

 

[Randall]

There were more then 7000 pages indexed in google

All with Post: #1 and Post #2 etc.

Searched for 2 hours in the code and fixed it. Now it does shows the post number but as a link that has no follow attribute.

And removed the "Post:" at the beginning of it.

More relevancy now :grin: Better results.

RE: Suggestions & Feedback for Nameslot.com Forum

I'm not sure I saw the same thing you did. All the listing titles and descriptions in Google looked very good. However, those of us that care should try making even better Thread/post titles with keywords. I think that will help.

I did see the "post #", but it was in the description and since I didn't search for anything but all of the pages in the Google index, I would not worry about that.

What I DID see that I would change, is the description and keywords tags:

<.title>A list of social bookmarking sites</title>

<.meta name="KEYWORDS" content="Buy, Sell & Talk Domains - Nameslot.com - Domain Name Forums" />

<.meta name="DESCRIPTION" content="B
uy, Sell & Talk Domains - Nameslot.com - Domain Name Forums" />

I would see where those tags are and try to put some of the post content there if you can. Like the first 100-250 chars of the message for the description.

And perhaps take the title, find the words by looking for spaces, and then dropping any words that are less than 4 characters and use what is left for keywords seperated with commas.

If you decide to do this I would like to get a copy of the changes. I'm thinking about setting up a forum in the future and would like to have that modification...
