2.5.10 test - always logged in
------------
install xoops 2.5.10
from PC or from tablet or android phone
open a browser
do the xoops login
open another tab copy and paste any link from the same xoops website => the login is still valid, you are still logged in
open another browser window (maybe this just from PC), copy and paste any link from the same xoops website => the login is still valid, you are still logged in
still in the same browser open whatsapp web,
copy paste the link of the installed xoops and then click it
the browser will open a new tab with xoops site and you are still logged in
whatsapp is an example I did it also with other apps that will open a browser with that link (where I'm already logged in in another tab) and it works, you are still logged in.
2.5.11 test - not always logged in
------------
install xoops 2.5.11
from PC (same result as in 2.5.10)
open a browser
do the xoops login
open another tab copy and paste any link from the same xoops website => the login is still valid, you are still logged in
open another window (maybe this just from PC), same browser, copy and paste any link from the same xoops website => the login is still valid, you are still logged in
from android phone - here is the difference
I open a tab, do the login, good
if I open another tab and copy paste the same link... I'm not logged in anymore, moreover I am logged out in the first tab too...
PC/android phone with whatsapp (or whatsapp web) or other app that will open a link - here is the difference
I already did the login in xoops in a browser if in the same browser I open whatsapp and copy paste my xoops link and then click there... the link opened is not logged in and I'm logged out in the first tab
if I use any app that open a browser with a link even if there is a tab where I already did the login the new tab with the link it will be not logged in
I can understand that in 2.5.11 the session control is different and maybe more strict,
how can I have the session behaviour of 2.5.10 in 2.5.11?
regards
Carlo

Hi,
I've just written an article on how to migrate an old theme to xoops 2.5.11.

Hi all,
Sorry, my mistake, with a recent theme xmNews offers a specific Meta Description of the article with 80 characters ... Finally xmNews is doing the right job!

correction : if, like me, you have ‘xmNews’ on your home page :
<{if $xoops_requesturi == '/modules/xmnews/index.php' or $xoops_requesturi == '/modules/xmnews/'}>
<link rel="canonical" href="<{$xoops_url}>/" />
<{else}>
<link rel="canonical" href="<{$xoops_url}><{$xoops_requesturi}>" />
<{/if}>

I hesitated for a long time between choosing WordPress and Xoops to create an information site, essentially a news site (specialized content), similar to a journalistic site (no forum, no download library, or other diverse features). I was ready to go with WP, which is stronger in terms of SEO (its main advantage over Xoops), but ultimately, WP's block-based editor never convinced me and tipped the balance towards Xoops, a platform I know well.
For reasons that are a bit complicated to explain here, I should mention that my hosting environment is limited to PHP 7.33 and MySQL 8, which led me to choose Xoops 2.5.10, equipped with the xmNews and xSitemap modules.
Once the site was nearly finished, with about a dozen articles written, I faced a total de-indexation (all URLs returned 404 errors) due to a bug in the 'preloads' folder... It took me four days and nights to finally understand why and how it happened! I didn’t see any warning either during the installation of 2.5.10 or in the modules affected by this bug. However, it might be my own fault for not reading the documentation carefully enough, as I'm quite accustomed to setting up Xoops sites in earlier versions. I won’t dwell further on this, as it’s not the main focus of my topic.
I simply wanted to offer some suggestions about the xmNews and xSitemap modules in terms of SEO. This is important because even the most beautiful website in the world is useless if it doesn’t have any visitors!
1/ xmNews
It's important that every article complies with Google and Bing's recommendations.
xmNews offers a list of specific keywords for each article, but that doesn’t matter! It’s been a long time since the two main search engines stopped taking the “keywords” tag into account.
What really matters is the meta Title and Description. As for the Title, xmNews uses the article's title, which is great... but why mix it with the "sitename"? That’s counterproductive, the article title alone is sufficient. The sitename appears everywhere else, and search engines don’t like over-optimization!
Regarding the meta Description, it’s the same for every page, which is a real shame :(
I suggest generating the meta Description with the first 250 characters of the article’s summary (or scoop).
In the meantime, I will likely write some PHP code to modify the Article page and create a new Smarty variable with these 250 characters. However, I wonder if it's possible to achieve this directly in the article's template, since we already have the {$news} variable. I'm not skilled enough in Smarty coding to know if we can extract the first 250 characters from {$news} directly within the template... This would have the advantage of preserving the modification during a module update through template overrides.
Moreover, xmNews would be even better for SEO if there was a "canonical" tag. For now, I’ve added this "canonical" tag myself with a modification to the template that looks like this:
Finally, the 'must-have' would be specific OpenGraph tags for each article (and even for the whole site)
2/ xSitemap
The very existence of a sitemap is SEO, right? So why not do the job completely!
xSitemap should reference the URL of each article! Why does it limit itself to referencing categories? Google and Bing love when we point out the specific URLs we want them to index. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have invented sitemaps!
Of course, these are just personal suggestions, but I believe they could really improve the traffic for a site built with these modules...
