When ever Googlebot tries to access any topic or a category page on my nodebb forum, it encounters a 404. This doesn't happen on browser .. Does anyone else face the same issue ? (NodeBB version is latest 1.8.2).

Go to Manage -> Privelleges. The spiders dont have view access by default. Please give them view access and it will be all fine.

That worked ! Thanks @baris

Re: Making the USER page private

Seems like the Hide User List option mentioned in the above post is not there in the /admin/settings/user anymore. How can we hide the user page from guests and search engines ?

@Bri So no proper solution for bounce management through SES ?

Hello,

I am in a similar situation as yours. Were you able to find a solution to handle bounces from Amazon SES ?

Thanks.

That was really quick and awesome man. Thanks a lot for your patience to deal with noobs like me !!

Is there some guide that can help me do that ? I am not that conversant with tech aspects of NodeBB.

Is there are minimum number of topics that should match for the suggested topics widget to appear below every topic like it appears in community.nodebb.org ?

Yes, the settings the ACP are default settings for the web crawler .. Nodebb is basically giving a session mistmatch error when crawler is trying to access a url. due to which it attempts to redirect to /login and then to /user(which is an undefined route and hence keeps showing 404 on every page).
