Hold on. I can't promise it'll be rolled out this week but we are working on a form advanced search that will be more like the old one. I'm hoping we can get it out by the end of next week.
 
Why do I have to log in every time I go to FreeOnes.com? The board keeps me logged in, but when I go to the main site I always have to log in. I don't see an option to stay logged in on the drop-down log in tab.

Something is going a little sideways with some users. We're diving into it next to figure out why this is happening and fix it.

One thing you can try is clearing your cookies and then signing in at www.freeones.com to try to trigger the correct cookie and that will hopefully keep you logged in on the site as well.
 
Re the board search, notwithstanding the caveat that you folks are possibly working on this bit (not sure if you're working on the board search or main search currently), I got frustrated enough with it the other day that I just aimed the google gun at it,
"site:www.freeones.com searchterm1 searchterm2 etc"
And it worked a charm. Obviously if y'all are five minutes from deploying your own solution then disregard this, but maybe you could just deploy google search for the board?
IDK if there's a big charge for it tho. Indexxx uses it but for some reason it works like crap on their site!

That's probably not going to work on anything new. I don't know how often Google indexes FreeOnes. Petra might know.

Not 5 minutes away from deploying a solution, but hopefully will have the advanced search plugin installed next week. We thought it would be an easy plugin to install but nothing about the way FreeOnes is set up (including the board) is plug and play. The dev is having trouble with the configuration and we have had to push it a bit down the list until the right people are available to help.

Knock on wood, but I'm hoping we can figure it out next week.

Google works in mysterious ways. Nobody knows how often google indexes any site, it's all best guesses.

We can see from our analytics that it's slowly reindexing everything, including the board (xenforo is actually set up to be google friendly where vbulletin wasn't crawled very well) but it's a slow process. Probably be another 2 months before everything is re-indexed and then how often google returns to a site really depends on a lot of factors and nobody knows how much weight each thing gets. We do know it matters how much new content the site gets, how much someone googles something about the site, how many times people click on a link to the site from google results, etc.

A funny story is there's this babe. She was a nobody playboy model in the 90s and starred in 2 Troma films. I think we had maybe 5 links in her babe section and she flipped the fuck out (as playboy models tend to do as they use their real names) and sent us a cease and desist. She even got Troma to send us a DMCA since the profile image we used was a still for the film. After I got to fan girl all over the Troma rep, I deleted the links and her section. Done, right?

Nope, this idiot kept searching her name + FreeOnes in google. This kept telling google that there was something interesting there since she did it a lot and they never de-indexed the page. Plus she'd go and put her name in the freeones search and get {babe-name}: 0 results and then see {firstname}+{lastname} in the search string.

This is how search engines work. But she was too stupid to understand this and she kept doing things that google just found interesting. :ROFLMAO:

I had to explain to her if you put "bugs bunny" in the search you'd see Bugs Bunny: 0 results and the name in the search string. This is kind of like a mirror. If you don't want to see yourself, don't look. If you don't want to see your name on FreeOnes, stop fucking searching.

To this day, 10 years later, her name is still in google connected with freeones (even though we blocked google from even looking for her) because she won't fucking let it go. She still sends love letters to our host and domain registar from time to time trying to get them to close freeones down over it.

Her name still makes me twitch, but at least I got a cool Troma tshirt out of it.
 
Briana should own. She should get her own spot probably. Always better than Jenna anyway.

Does it have something to do with me being still logged into the old site? I've been going there every day to get the bonus points/credits for checking MyFreeOnes. Because of that, my credit totals don't match - I have more on the old site than the new. I know you're still working on the credits system, but is there going to be a way to get those bonus points on the new site?
 
I was playing around with Xenforo and discovered the Table feature. Pretty cool.

I edited my first post in the Helen Highfield thread and have the links columnized. This feature is going to be awesome with the rule change coming.

No. Old site and new site logins are completely different platforms and are totally independent of each other.

Some of the bonus points between the 12th of May and now will probably be included but not all. This, unfortunately is one of the problems of keeping the old site open. The credits on the new site will only be updated if we do a resync and once that's fixed we're not doing another one. But once we get the new credit system up, there will be all sorts of ways to earn new credits.

You're not lying about that.
 
The search is acting weird. I've noticed a few times that when I put in a search term and restrict it to Title only, I get some results where the term is not in some of the titles.
 
I think another prefix option needs to be added to threads created under Porn Scene & Model Requests. SOLVED would be a good option, or something indicating that the OP got what he was looking for.

I catagorized all threads I was following into seperate folders before the design change. Is there no way to reach them now? It is really hard to keep trqack of all threads...
 
One thing I miss from the old site was how easy it was to see new starlets. You just had to go to new babes and the pornstars page and boom new girls at the top of every page. Now It lists these awkward thumbnails and you can't filter just pornstars and you can't go back further than a day. Huge downgrade for me.
