Do you understand OOP and can you write code using it? If so, continue to the next step. I'd advise against the other way around. Re: APIs and SDKs in a PHP project Programming Web Development by Dani In the context of PHP, an API's SDK is a PHP-based library that is used to access what is typically a JSON-based API. Composer is a dependency manager for PHP, but you typically don't *need* to use it. What API are you trying to connect to?

So, on one hand, you have Google making it super easy to churn out AI-generated content on the web, and on the other hand, you have Google churning their wheels trying … Chrome generates AI content Community Center by Dani Apparently a new feature in Google Chrome is to automatically generate AI content. All I need to do is start typing a sentence or two here in this textbox, right click, select "Help Me Write", choose if I want it to be short-form or long-form text, be formal or casual in tone, and let Chrome work its magic ...

BS. Re: Do backlinks to disallowed URLs help the domain overall? Digital Media Digital Marketing Search Engine Strategies by Dani > but what meta name="robots" do the have in their html head It doesn't matter. If a URL is disallowed via robots.txt, then Googlebot never crawls the page to discover what is or is not in any meta tags in the page's HTML. Regardless, the `<meta name="robots" content="noindex">` tag tells Google to not … Re: Do backlinks to disallowed URLs help the domain overall? Digital Media Digital Marketing Search Engine Strategies by AussieWebmaster The title and description can be pulled by Google without one being there - so same is done when blocked from crawling - if there is a link on the site to the page that does not have a no index no follow wrapped around the link will be how Google gets the page and ranks it. Google does not follow robots.txt instructions Do backlinks to disallowed URLs help the domain overall? Digital Media Digital Marketing Search Engine Strategies by Dani I do realize that backlinks to URLs disallowed via robots.txt do still have whatever Google's modern version of pagerank is. Depending upon how many incoming backlinks there are, even if Google can't crawl a URL, it might use those external signals to still rank the URL in the search results (albeit with no page title or description). My … Re: Do backlinks to disallowed URLs help the domain overall? Digital Media Digital Marketing Search Engine Strategies by jkon Dani I have never seen in in that way , just two clarification questions if you would like.

Here it is. I have online submission pages on 4 websites: RadiantNewHorizonHomes.com, RTO-USA.net, SubterraneanSoundStudio.com and RebHellionRecords.com. Each of these 4 … Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info Programming Web Development by david.tigner My 4 domains are all through URL provider IONOS. The question is why does the sender's email address as entered on the front end of the on-line submission form have to have the same ending as the domain name of the site or one of the other 3 or else submitted info fails to send ? Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info Programming Web Development by david.tigner That's a problem. The email addresses issued for @RadiantNewHorizonHomes.com or 1 of the other 4 are created by me. Unknown parties that submit online forms on one of my domains would not have one of these email addresses. I would want to receive the submitted info from senders of any email address like has been since 2011 until Feb 2024. This is … Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info Programming Web Development by david.tigner There is no making emails "appear" to be from other than the true sender. I'll explain further. Suppose John Smith has an email address of johnsmith@gmail.com. John then goes on to one of my sites, lets say RTO-USA.net, and fills out an online submission form and enters his email address truthfully (johnsmith@gmail.com). This email … Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info Programming Web Development by david.tigner If John isn't the sender then who is ? Also, continuing from the John Smith example, if John Smith enters his email address as johnsmith@SubterraneanSoundStudio.com or johnsmith@RTO-USA.net (ficticious email addresses) then the submitted info would be emailed to me but if he uses his true email address then it would not. Continuing from this … Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info Programming Web Development by david.tigner Then it seems to me that if I change $from = $_POST['ShowingEmail']; to $from = "Unknown@RTO-USA.com"; (or @SubterraneanSoundStudio.com, etc.) then the submitted info should send. This Unknown@RTO-USA.com email address is fake but apparently that doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is that the @domain.com part of the email … Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info Programming Web Development by david.tigner I'll do whatever works to get the submission pages to send again with any submitter's email address. The End Justifies The Means. If it works then I can refine it as needed. Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info Programming Web Development by Dani > If this does in fact solve the problem, it would make replying back to the submitter a little bit more complicated In your mail headers, you can specify both a From: email address, that is an email address from your domain name, as well as a separate Reply-To: email address, that can be any email. This way, when someone clicks on the Reply … Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info Programming Web Development by david.tigner The way I see it is that the email address in question is one inputted by the submitter. What if this question is not asked ? So I'm seeing if in the back end PHP file, the email address in question is not anything entered by submitter but simply one with the correct @site.com ending. That way should slip "under the radar" and submitted … Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info Programming Web Development by Biiim Hey David, You should not pretend to send an email from `x@gmail.com` as this is spoofing. I forward all forms from a website from a generic email such as `forms@` or `enquiry@` (`@yourlocaldomain.com`) Emails have basic checks done on them, which is why your spoofing fails, you are trying to say `X@gmail.com` sent an email but gmail didn'… Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info Programming Web Development by david.tigner I am not pretending to send emails from x@gmail.com or any other email address. Here's what is happening: If a submitter (the one that fills out the form and presses the Submit button) doesn't enter an email address ending in a domain that I own, the submitted info will not send. If they do, it will. The email address they enter in this case does … Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info Programming Web Development by david.tigner They said they can't help me and to contact a web developer because it deals with coding.

Digital Media Digital Marketing Search Engine Strategies by KomalBhatt Google has, however, noted that they simply don't follow nofollow links. So while nofollow links likely don't have a direct impact on your SEO, they can affect your website traffic Re: Does Google follow internal nofollow links? Digital Media Digital Marketing Search Engine Strategies by toneewa The first thing that comes to mind is that Google doesn't, because they don't have to. They can save all the nofollows for a third party, and still be telling the truth. Google -> follow -> done. Google -> nofollow -> save -> done. save <- NSA -> done. NSA -> follow -> done.
