MyBB Community Forums

Hey Everyone
I'm going to install MyBB script, I have already installed it but on a free host you know ..
I am going to collect information about everything, so I will ask a lot of questions and please answer me as numbered points


1- What is the top plugins required or must be included in the forum ?
( Users can post their fav. mods ) ( I'm making a collection of the best mods)

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

2- From the question one the most popular I watched is Google SEO
but I have some points
- I know that it make sitemaps, how to submit it to webmaster tools ?
I mean here the link ? If my forum is the same of home page
I mean www.xxxx.com = www.xxx.com/index.php
???

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

3- how to submit it to Google Analytics ? and when add my site to my account
add www.xxxx.com OR www.xxx.com/index.php ???
I have watched people answer this to put my tracking code in headerinclude template,, but where !!?? where exactly put the code ? there are mods for this or its not required ?

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

4- to ping my site submit, backlinkling ...etc
submit my site as www.xxxx.com OR www.xxx.com/index.php ???

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

5- to add a description for gogle and keywords
I saw 3 ways with a point in them
a) this mod http://mods.mybb.com/view/metatags-plugin





b) http://community.mybb.com/thread-101003.html



c) http://mybbgroup.com/mybb-meta-tags-how-...-for-mybb/

in these lines, I add them only or change especially in robots ?
<meta name="robots" content="(no)index, (no)follow">
<meta name="author" content="your name/company">


the general for the three ways I saw the same comment

Quote:will hurt your SEO rankings since this meta tags will be the same in all pages.

so ? I can't add description or what ? and this could incompatible with Google SEO ?

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

6- Why MyBB isn't like VB in writing any thread ? I mean here
Write a new thread :

-In VB when you want to bold, center, color text it appears or takes action in your post box

-In MyBB it uses codes [center] [img] ...etc

got it ?

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

7- In my new Forum that I;m going to open it I need two important mods

1- as in community forum
Thread Subject [How To], [Upgrading], [Installing]..etc ??

2- I would offer a special usergroup for money and I want to make it like as sale in the registration tab in the forum and join it with visa, PayPal, Payza..etc something like that

I mean when anyone want to register he get two choices one for normal usergroup and the other for the paid and he pay and register automatically got it ?


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

Thank you very much, I'm sorry for my this questions but I always ask before I get started in any new scripts, I hope also to get the expected support..

Good Luck//

1. No pulgins are required at all to create a sucessful forum. You add the ones you like - simple as that.

2. You would just submit the URL of the sitemap. It's probably something like www.yoursite.com/forum/sitemap.php.

For questions on MODs you should ask in their Support Thread.

3. You answered your own Question.

4. Don't understand what your asking here.

5. You can just leave the Yellow Boxes, they are not really required.

6. The tags just don't appear in the "Text Box" they still use them.

7a. Admin Panel -> Configuration -> Thread Prefixes.
b. You would just create a new group, add a PayPal pay button, and manually add members when they have sent you the Payment.

Some people have there forums at /forums/ that's why. Yours would be .com/sitemap.php

At the end would be fine.

Quote: and when add my site to my account

It doesn't matter. Both will be the same result I would just go with .com.

Thank you very much ...

Of course you can but you would require some programming to do so, unless there is a MOD for this. Have a look in the MOD section.

Woow great great support !
Thank you very very much

When I tried to add the sitemap

Quote:Network unreachable: robots.txt unreachableWe were unable to crawl your Sitemap because we found a robots.txt file at the root of your site but were unable to download it. Please ensure that it is accessible or remove it completely.

+ I don't have a robots.txt !!

- Do you know mod do what I want ?


Thank you very much and please let me send you if I get a problem please

Thanks again..
