Like I said - mine is very minimalistic - but you can go into it a lot deeper.

Look at the forum templates for newbb - there is a smarty constant used there for the description - and topic title.

Play around with it - and you can create unique tags for every module - on the fly automatically.

What you should be taking from mine is how to isolate the module via smarty.

Also - you can do it right in the module if you are feeling strong.

ohhh - ok - well this isn't really a system problem as much as it is a theme problem.

In your theme - if you have <{$xoops_pagetitle}> - <{$xoops_sitename}>> then you have a long way to go before you should be worrying about SEO.

Basically your meta area should be ridiculous.

here is mine

<!-- Title and Meta --> <{if $cur_dir|truncate:4:""=="wfdo" }> <title><{$page_title}> | Mr. Theme Design</title> <meta name="description" content="Mr. Theme Design Free Theme Downloads Section" /> <{elseif $cur_dir|truncate:4:""=="mytu" }> <{assign var='page_title' value='Video Tutorials' }> <title><{$page_title}> | Mr. Theme Design</title> <meta name="description" content="Mr. Theme Design Video Tutorials" /> <{elseif $cur_dir|truncate:6:""=="smartp" }> <{assign var='page_title' value='Partners' }> <title><{$page_title}> | Mr. Theme Design</title> <meta name="description" content="Mr. Theme Design Partners" /> <{elseif $cur_dir|truncate:4:""=="them" }> <{assign var='page_title' value='Recent Themes' }> <title><{$page_title}> | Mr. Theme Design</title> <meta name="description" content="Mr. Theme Design News and Tutorial Section - ImpressCMS, XOOPS, and Photoshop Guides" /> <{elseif $cur_dir|truncate:4:""=="news" }> <{assign var='page_title' value='Text Tutorials' }> <title><{$page_title}> | Mr. Theme Design</title> <meta name="description" content="In depth tutorial on creating a XOOPS or ImpressCMS Theme From Scratch." /> <{elseif $cur_dir|truncate:4:""=="liai" }> <{assign var='page_title' value='Contact' }> <title><{$page_title}> | Mr. Theme Design</title> <meta name="description" content="Contact Mr. Theme Design" /> <{elseif $cur_dir|truncate:4:""=="pric" }> <{assign var='page_title' value='Pricing' }> <title><{$page_title}> | Mr. Theme Design</title> <meta name="description" content="Mr. Theme Design Price Guide" /> <{else}> <title><{$page_title}> | Mr. Theme Design</title> <meta name="description" content="<{$page_title}>, <{$meta_description}>" /> <{/if}>


And this is a minimalist approach - sublime's is ridiculously long.

Something I discussed with the team recently is expanding the power of symlink... I would love to see the ability to use symlink to set custom page descriptions/titles/meta - seems like we are half way there already.

Re: 404 status code

I've never seen anything like 404.php in any of our themes - has anyone else?

Re: 404 status code

Also to make search engines like Google spider these pages correctly, you can add this line to the top of your theme's 404.php file.

Quote:

<?php header("HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found"); ?> <?php header("Status: 404 Not Found"); ?>



Or you may have to add this before the above code in some cases.

<?php ob_start(); ?>

Re: I'm not SPAM!

You may also consider that it is blacklisted with http://www.spamhaus.org . In my experience this is the most common blacklisting out there.

All of the SPAM firewalls I have worked with use Spamhaus to determine the validity of sending SMTP servers.

You also need to make sure the mail server has appropriate DNS entries.

Re: I'm not SPAM!

Thanks all for your responses. I activated SPF record in CPanel and changed some config parameters in PHPlist.

The HTML template is extremely clean, but he pastes content from his own website, which is re-written by FCKEditor (the one that comes with PHPList).

Let's see what happen after these changes.

make sure his header is legit.

For example if his mail server sends his message and his domain is not the host you may need to work with his spf records.

"v=spf1 ip4:1.23.45.678 ip4:1.23.12.678/679 a include:www.host.com ~all"


main ip /// ip range /// hostname /// isalright

Re: I'm not SPAM!

A score of 8,6 can also mean that his message is not very clean coded. I noted that a newsletter I made was far less rejected when I made it state of the art CSS conform and cleaned up the code.

So plain old handcoding that is....

Does this client of yours import a MS Word document for example?

Re: I'm not SPAM!

Maybe your clients IP is blacklisted somewhere. Check here at the Honeypot project.
There only some recipients having this issue I suspect his IP or email address is blacklisted and blocked by some kind of spam filter.
