»PhpBB mod (freeware): How do surfers find my forum?«


What Search engines? What Keywords? What Topics?

(( Note: If you don't know what phpBB is, or if you are not a phpBB forum admin, then this page is useless for you ))

My mod for phpBB shows how your forum is found:
• List which searchengines the visitors are coming from (Google, Yahoo, AOL, ...)
• List what keywords (= search terms) the surfers used to find your site
• List what topic has been found and who the topic starter is
• What is the time difference from one vistor to the next?
• Shows an average "A user from a search engine visits this site every 23 minutes"
• Grouping is possible
        • Group by search engine
        • Group by topic starter
        • Group by forum
        • Group by topic
        • Group by search term (default)
• EasyMod compatible

Please note the links at the bottom, with which you can sort/group the list.

Re: phpBB mod (freeware): How do surfers find my forum?

I am getting this error:

Warning: open_basedir restriction in effect. File is in wrong directory

Any idea why?

I know this error. Can you tell me the file and line it appears in?

I installed this great mod fine but am a little confused about the note in:
// If you call this function not from viewtopic.php but from another page
// (e.g. from your index (if you want to track visitors from search engines that come directly to your index.php)
// then call this function as addsearchengine(-100,'') for example, indicating by "-100" that you have been found by a link and not a search engine. This is just a suggestion.

Do I have to add something to my index page to log index visits or alter the code here in searchenginereferers.php?

1) Sorry, I wrote it in a confusing way, indeed.
2) I have programmed a new version, just for you. Download it at

3) Add to your index.php

if (function_exists('addsearchengine')) // Mod by 1-4a.com: "What Searchengines? What Keywords? What Topics?"
    {
    addsearchengine(-1,getenv('REQUEST_URI'),$_REQUEST['query']);
    }

You can see a demo at this site at in-my-opinion.org…

If you scroll down you will see that it features a new link "[Show visitors of our image galleries]" because I have added

addsearchengine(-10,getenv('REQUEST_URI'),$_REQUEST['query']); 

to my "phpBB image gallery script" called "integrated_pic_search.php" (another mod of mine).

I really appreciate your trouble! I only found your site yesterday via the phpbb security tutorials and then your terrific mods.

I have uploaded the changes and added the code to my index and have yet to show any results (the board is a busy one and I did a couple of test searches as well). We do have phpbb safe mode on and I wondered if that was anything to do with it? There are no error messages and I have triple checked the code. You can see here:


I placed the code in index.php underneath:

include($phpbb_root_path . 'common.'.$phpEx);


Your Tell Me Who Refered is great and I am also interested in your content generating program when available.

As I can see from your pages, you didn't upload the new files. You have to go to 1-4a.com and get the newest version of this mod.

I downloaded before and just rechecked, all the files from 1-4a are dated June? Perhaps you forgot to upload the changed files? I did upload again anyway but the song remains the same. Wink

Thanks
Dean

Nope, the newest version is 1.3.0 and I just checked and it is uploaded correctly. It's from August.

Where do you download the .zip file from?

From 1-4a mods page and this is the link to the file:
1-4a.com… [ZIP]

This is correct. You are doing something wrong then. When I download it, it's the newest version. Unpack it and check whether it's ver1.3.0

If not, then you are doing something wrong (e.g. downloading from the cache etc).

I now have the latest files uploaded and am still unable to get it to show referers perhaps it is something with 2.0.17 but I will keep persevering as this is a very useful mod!
