I want to use a free site search engine. However, whenever they try to index protected pages they just index the login page. Is there any way to override this? I need these pages to be searchable.

Also, I am going to sign up with 2checkout tomorrow. Any last things before I join, anything to be cautious or worried over?

you will have no problems with 2checkout, they rock

Your trying to let people search your protected pages??? :eek:

If so there is no way around that unless the protected page is a Pop Windows like in Cpanel.

Then you could just put the link as http://USERNAMEHERE:PASSHERE@URLtoPROTECTEDpageWITHOUThttpHERE/

the protected pages would contain articles, and i want logged in users to be able to search them. but i dont think this is possible, so I guess no search for me :(

Hmmm......Well then you could setup a cookie system that way when the search engine goes to the login system it will bypass it and go on to the articles. Can you tell me more about it so I can figure out a way to help you better?

Thanks for your interest. I am using the atomz.com site search engine, and have files protected through mysql using cookies to store login info. The protected pages have articles that are for subscribers only. I want the articles to be searchable without the security being compromised.

Hmmm, a simple php script would be good for this. Since the articles are in the database (I think) then if you had a simple php search script it would interface with your database.

The problem is you can't remotely access your database from atomz.com's sever the best option would to get a php search script to put on your own site.
