converted from html pages to php pages now no pages will index!!! help!!
I have recently converted all my html pages into php pages and now php dig will not index any of them at all!
the pages are extremely important and need indexing so how do i sort this out, also the pages are only little bits of code that link to a template page which is then populated with data, so phpdig doesn't seem to be able to spider these pages now, can anyone explain a way round this??? cheers, Alex. |
Hi. What is the code from one of these PHP files? Does it have a header redirect? If so, try the ZIP file in this thread.
|
the code from the files are as follows:
PHP Code:
I'm not very knowledgable so could you possibly explain? thanks. |
Hi. Are there links to these PHP files?
|
the links to the pages are generated by the pages themselves...
its a directory of the UK ie. an index page placed in a county folder will create the links to all the towns/cities within that, these links would be somethhing like leicestershire/leicester/index.php so the links only exist after the php page has been compiled, i think i read somewhere that phpdig compiles all php then spiders it afterwards. the index.php pages become html in content but only when compiled hope that helps explain it! |
Hi. I mean when you spider, are you spidering a page that has links to these PHP files, like a directory listing?
BTW, PhpDig doesn't compile PHP; it's compiled server-side. PhpDig checks and reads what is output from the server. ;) |
no i'm just spidering the main folder, i.e.
http://www.mysite.com/database/world/uk/ the first page it will find will be a index.php page this page will display the countries within the uk its laid out like so: world/ --------uk/index.php --------uk/england/index.php --------uk/england/west_midlands/index.php |
Hi. So does the http://www.mysite.com/database/world/uk/england/west_midlands/index.php page call up the http://www.mysite.com/templates/region_template.php?region=west_midlands&country=england page? If so, what do you get when you uncomment //print $answer."<br>\n"; from the robot_functions.php file and then index?
|
yes that is what happens, bang on...
i tried uncommenting that line and it indexed just the main html pages as before, missing the entire database folder out (as this only consists of these index.php file and folders) it was returning strange info like this: Quote:
i've commented that line back to the way it was now. |
Hi. The 404 means PhpDig is not finding the pages. Are you using a base href tag? If so, there is some code in this thread to account for base href tags.
|
no i'm not using base h ref i don't think, i'm not sure what that means exactly, but if a search for <BASE HREF in my template pages nothing is returned so that isn't in any of my pages.
argh this is getting confusing!! |
Hi. It seems that there may be a mislink somewhere in the new PHP code, maybe dealing with the $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] variable. What do you get onscreen when you try the following?
In robot_functions.php right after: PHP Code:

i get all of this stuff happening: that double// looks a bit suspicious, and then it goes back to one /
Page: www.mysite.com// Page: www.mysite.com// Page: www.mysite.com// Page: www.mysite.com// Page: www.mysite.com// Page: www.mysite.com// Page: www.mysite.com// Page: www.mysite.com// Page: www.mysite.com// Page: www.mysite.com/ Page: www.mysite.com/ Page: www.mysite.com/ Page: www.mysite.com/ Page: www.mysite.com/ Page: www.mysite.com/ Page: www.mysite.com/ Page: www.mysite.com/ Page: www.mysite.com/ + Page: www.mysite.com/database/world// Page: www.mysite.com/database/world// Page: www.mysite.com/database/world// Page: www.mysite.com/database/world// |
Hi. The double slash is okay. It's removed when it needs to be removed. Maybe the thing to notice is that none of the pages have things like uk/england/west_midlands/index.php in them. Without actually seeing/testing your site, I doubt that I can get this narrowed down.
