Hello. I am a happy News 13 user. But lately the program creates unnecessary doubles with news that isnt what my template is AT ALL. Ok lets go:

I have 2 templates on one page outputting two different news sections. One is "Latest news" and the other is "News Archive". Latest news is coded with:

Code:


<?php
$nppage = '1';
$template = 'Latest2';
include 'news/index.php';
?>

and the other is:

Code:


<?php
$nppage = '5'; #show 5 news posts
$template = 'Headlines';
include 'news/index.php';
?>

All is avalible at: Index page
This has worked excellent until today. But now News 13 creates one ?id=xx per news and this does not follow my templates AT ALL. It creates an output of the news singlehanded in each box when the news always should be putting out the templates?

These can be found at Link1 Link2 Link3 Hope you get the drift. It creates one site with one news with comments and everything. First off: i dont wanna have these ugly sites out there on Google. Imagine if someone gets one of these in a search. This is not the first impression i wanna have... Why is this happening? Please help me. I cant find any bugs or anything. Is it some setting i have done wrong?

did not find any solution for this so it became a loooong robots.txt with a bunch of disallows. no system is perfect. but N-13 is the closest i have come so,,

I can't work out what the problem is. Can you try explaining it again? I'm a bit tired so maybe that's why.

ok. the problem is that wherever i include the news/index.php it seems to create one page with ONE news on it. like ?=id1 ?=id2 ?=id3 ?=id4 and not the template with 5 news items. this means a LOT of dynamic pages for google to index (that is doubles of other pages) is there any way to control this?

PROBLEM SOLVED. It was because i had the index.php as the news source in my RSS feed. I changed it to my article page and gone.
