The "Newsletter" line: if you tick the box, you can send a newsletter to your subscribers.
To avoid attracting the envy of spammers, you can check the Hide number of subscribers box.
For the sending of your newsletter, we followed the recommendations of our partner o2switch, namely the sending of 30 letters per batch, followed by a 70 second pause, then a new sending of 30 letters... until the end of your sending to your subscribers.
You can increase the pause time, for example 90 seconds. This is to avoid spam classification or blacklisting of your emails.
Warning: This configuration is valid for o2switch, you must check with your host, some limit the number of emails per hour to 100. If you leave the fields empty or if you put 0, the sending is done without pause.
It is here in this part you choose the Preferences box configuration options.
It is the same principle as the other headings either to tick or to select.
This is the part where you choose the configuration options of the home page, RSS, documents, automatic banners and quotes rotation, news site and display images news.
First you must select the display of your site's home page. You can choose between the home page, the blog page, the news page, the forum page or the page of the calendar. You choose depending on the content of your site!
Then you select the options you want to use on your site.
For new features on the site, you can choose between "Since the last connection" or "Since a number of days", you do not have to select both options, it is either one or the other.
For "news" images: you define the number of days and then check the services where you want to display them!
This part of config service allows you to determine the number of items that display on each page in the various services: news, blog posts comments, reactions to articles, messages in the guestbook, forum threads ...
The boxes have been filled with default values. You can leave them as is or will enter the values of your choice.
Tip: think about the functionality of your site. Example: if you have a lot of comments in your blog, it is more convenient for visitors to access their reading if the list includes 15 comments following that 5 on several pages! Value will then be set at 25.
Note: Maximum number of files in data / error. This number is 25 by default. This directory stores files that are created when an error occurs on the site. For example, the "404" error when the server can not find the requested URL. |
The other two settings in this area:
RSS in the social networks box : Guppy comes with a social networking box where the corresponding buttons to well-known social networks show. If you tick the box, the RSS button will be visible in the same box, allowing on a click visitors into the RSS service you have chosen to offer them.
Cache RSS: set to 1 day by default, this is the refresh rate of the feed:
For example, if you publish a new article, it will be visible in the RSS feed in the next 24 hours at most after its publication.
If you set the cache value to 15 minutes, the item will be visible at the most 15 minutes after its publication.
To learn how to set up the RSS service, refer to the particular help to this service.
What is a sitemap :
A Sitemap allows webmasters to tell search engines which pages of their sites to explore.
In its simplest form, a Sitemap is an XML file that lists URLs for a site along with additional metadata about each URL (date of last modification, revision frequency and importance relative to other URLs in the site) in order to optimise search engines crawling through rthe site..
The web crawlers usually discover pages from links on the site and from other sites.
A Sitemap provides this data to allow crawlers that support Sitemaps to extract all URLs in the Sitemap and gather information about those URLs using the associated metadata.
Using the Sitemap protocol does not guarantee the inclusion of web pages in search engines, but can provide guidance to crawlers and optimise their operation.
You must check the services that you use on your site so that URLs are taken into account in the generation of sitemaps for your website.
After generating sitemaps, you must indicate their presence in each of the search engines.
The major search engines provide after registration files to the root of your site for easy indexing.
Depending on your choice, visitors can leave comments, post news, a topic of discussion in the forum ...

Anti-spam system:
Spam refers to a pollutant email or unwanted email, sent in bulk for advertising, hoaxes, swindling via an email address left on a forum, a comment, a form...
Guppy includes a whole anti-spam system to prevent as much as possible these sendings:
The maximum number of codes stored indicates the amount of malicious data antispam file must store (minimum 50 in the example : 150) codes;
The validity of a code in minutes represents the time during which a code is kept in the same file before being replaced by another (minimum 10 minutes, in the example: 20 minutes).
Accordingly, if a user sends a script in a forum post, this command will be stored for a minimum of 20 minutes (see illustration above) . Therefore, if a script is sending a burst release, all posts containing that very injected script will be denied entry .
Renaming sensitive files is an important protection for all files using forms .
Since mid-March 2013, a wave of spam has invaded the web, spambots posting thousands of spam to unprotected sites every 24 hours.
It is strongly recommended to apply the renaming on your site and it is in this area that you can do so by replacing the original name with a name of your choice.
The captcha is a test used in computing and networks to differentiate automatically a human user from a computer one.
This type of test is often found on websites or blogs forms to protect against malicious robots made by and intensive automated submissions.
This captcha is based mostly on reading a series of distorted letters or digits that only a human can analyse and write.
Guppy allows you to use the captcha in forms available to visitors. Simply tick the boxes .
Caution: for the wave of spam in 2013, it seems inconceivable not to use a captcha to protect its website from this scourge of spam.
You can choose between two different captchas : captcha sensitive or non-sensitive to simple text and a second more sophisticated captcha text where you must enter a code corresponding to a display of letters and numbers.
You can receive email monitoring different events on your site :
visitor's contribution : Publishing a blog post, comment, reaction to an article, publication of a new post in the forum ...
But also, you can be notified of the registration of a new member, a registration for the newsletter, a value reached by the hit counter .
In short, be aware of everything that happens on your site.
Email Type : However, this service only works if your hoster allows it. Please ask the latter to know what kind of emails you choose or even test by yourself. If you receive nothing, it means that your host does not allow sending email from your site supervision.
Email: Tick the boxes to choose which event you want to be notified .
Email list receiving supervision: Then at the bottom of this section, you can enter one or more recipients people's email of this supervision.
For example: guppy@guppy.cms admin@guppy.cms webmestre@mondomaine.org ...
Do not forget to click the button "Save config" once you have completed your choice!
