By controlling the SEO of my site I found a notice that says:

Warning! Your server allows visitors to browse your directory by accessing it directly even when there is no index.html file. Disabling directory browsing is recommended to ensure the security of your website.

This is a problem of missing index.html file in some directory or other concerns that the root of the site?

Try to run the indexscan and see if you find directories with missing index.html, fix it, and then see if you still get the error report.

We'll have to do the same for XOOPS 2.5.5 before we release it, just to make sure....

The truth is that it was set to Default System Setting in my cpanel web server.

But I don't know if this would affect the search engines if you disable to No Indexing.

Still missing index.html files in several folders, including the uploads folder.

Thank you!

I prefer to add code in .htaccess or httpd.conf.
