I have quite a few empty review pages listed in Google, and they seem to be doing well in the ranking but this can only be a bad thing, i was surprissed to see them as i installed something a long time ago that would only show a lonk to the review if there was one there, i am guessing the search engines have found a way around this.

I would like to canvas peoples opinion on this, the empty reviews have little content, but they are not a dupicate as the tags , title start with "Review of -" and of course they create a link to the product and i no google likes links but the fact there is no content on the page, well at least very little i suspect is a very bad thing

Do i just add the pages to Robots txt and loose any Juice, I have 20,000 products so thats a lot to drop out all in one go

I obviously have some reviews that would mean that they would be missing from the search engines too.

Is the way forward one of the Contribs that have the review on the product page, but that would minimise the number of links within the site, wouldnt that effect google listing too.

Does anybody have some opinions on this

Thank you

Hi There

Reference Ticket systems

I have been looking through the forum for views on ticket systems, there are a few in the contribution systems but these have not been updated for a number of years, does anybody use these systems and could they recommend them, or does anybody use a bolt on system they could suggest.

I have been using Live support by zilla (the free version) for chat for a couple of months its ok and is handy when we cannot be on the phones and would like to compliment this with a ticket system so we can deal with support enquires better.


Thank you

Hi There

I have a long standing modified version of RCA2

I have installed IOSC which is a mobile version of the site but i am having a problem passing the CartID to worlpay gateway, then if i click back on the browser it goes through fine

I have studied the header info and the only thing is missing is the cart if ,ie

Not working
POST /wcc/purchase instId=999999&amount=134.95&currency=GBP&hideCurrency=true&cartId= &desc=websitename&name, bla bla bla

working
POST /wcc/purchase instId=999999&amount=134.95&currency=GBP&hideCurrency=true&cartId=89898989 &desc=websitename&name, bla bla bla

so the only difference is that it is not sending the cart ID

Its not sending me to shipping page so at the start of the page it must have the cartID and of course when its refeshed it is there

I assume sothing is knocking it out in the page somewhere, is there an easy way to reinstate it in the form section of the page? before its posted?

I have tried messing about with placing
<?php $cartID=$cartID ?>

but that has not helped, and i have read many many posts but nobody has the same issue, its probably because my setup is not stock, maybe its in the classes that the problem is occuring, any pointers would be gratefully recieved.

hi There

I have a multistore setup that has been stable for some years but a very recent problem has arised, not sure if maybe my server has had a php update or i have changed something, but i cannot seem to find the issue.

All the stores have a common admin login and all get there pics from the main stores image folder via server folder divert.

Images>images required is set to false on all stores, the main store is fine but the others are not showing there pics, if i set it to true it will show the pics but give the problem with the categories image and the red box.

So by forcing the image they are fine so i was thnking maybe there has been a php update and my code on that specific page is outdated.

I think a saw a contrib to take out the category pcs all together but was hoping to fix the problem rather than bypass it.

I am running php ver 5.5.17,apache/2, and mainly 2.2 RC2

Any pointers would be appriciated.

Thank you

David
