Basic Listing with Time Period

Saturday, September 29th, 2007

In IndexU 5.4.0, we can only have permanent option for “BASIC” listing (one time inclusion fee).

No source code modified, only the templates and javascript file.

Using Yahoo for Web Search

Monday, September 24th, 2007

In the latest IndexU version (5.4.0), it is still using Google SOAP Search API for the “web search” feature. If you already have the “Google SOAP API Key”, then there will be no problem using this feature. But unfortunately Google no longer issuing new API keys since December 5, 2006.

Simple New Listing Page

Saturday, September 22nd, 2007

My new listing page is a little bit different with the original IndexU have. It doesn’t show dates and category for new/updated listings, it simply shows the last 20 new/updated listings. I like this way better :)
