uploads module, download counting, excluding subnets
Posted: Sat Aug 25, 2007 9:14 am
Hi,
In the files (uploads module) preferences, there is the ability to "Exclude subnets from statistics:".
I take it that means when counting downloads of files, i can make it stop counting the googlebot/yahoo crawler stats. I'm not sure how to use this exactly though so i thought i'd ask for help.
What content is this looking for, what seperator does it use for multiple entries?
this is my current entry (without the quotes)
" 66.149.0.0,googlebot.com,*.googlebot.com, 66.249.70.150, crawl.yahoo.net, 74.6.28.78 "
As you can see i've tried covering all bases but its not working.
So i'm getting it wrong somehow
this ip lookup of 66.249.70.150
IP : 66.249.70.150 Neighborhood
Host : crawl-66-249-70-150.googlebot.com OK
Any pointers appreciated,
thanks,
Ben
