The module is included in the script package. Install it in the admin area under Modules, then switch it on in its settings.

How this module works

A ping is a short message to a service: "There is something new on this website". Each time you save a published article, the module sends its address to the services. Search engines and blog directories then visit your website.

Settings

  • Ping on publishing: each time a published article is saved
  • IndexNow: informs Bing, Yandex, Seznam, Naver and other search engines about new articles at once. The module creates and provides the key file that IndexNow needs.
  • XML-RPC ping services: one address per line, lines starting with # are ignored. Ping-o-Matic is preset and forwards the ping to many services.

Ping now

On the module page, "Ping now" sends the address of the start page to the services. The results of the last ping are listed there for each service.
