Please could you inform me of what I have to do / done wrong to get listed.

Thanks

No listing is ever automatic. A submittal only makes the site available for editors who are looking for sites on a particular topic.

Oh, by the way: what particular topic did you suggest this site for? (Please make a clickable link to the category -- without it we usually can't tell you anything.)

Re:

Can you suggest some tips on how tho get my site listed please. I put my site in the hydroponics catergory. We also host some free java games but thats just for customers.

jimnoble · Dec 23, 2004

You've submitted your website. Just sit back and relax - we'll process it in time, though we can't predict when that will be.

The category is Home/Gardening/Specialized_Techniques/Hydroponics/.

The ATTENTION - Forum Guidelines - READ BEFORE POSTING thread requires that you wait at least a month from your most recent submission before asking here. In your case, that isn't until after 7th January 2005.

re: site submition

Cheers Jim you must get sick of cutting and pasteing that same reply lol or is it automated in the script of this fourm ?

oneeye · Jan 21, 2005

is it automated in the script of this fourm ?

If only it were
If only it were
If only it were
If only it were
If only it were

My own variation:

Received and waiting for review by an editor. You can return to this thread for an update in 6 months if it is not listed by then. Thanks.

I asked about automating replies, in an internal forum. Apparently each of us is responsible for his or her own "automation".

The only automated text strings here are:

[readme]x[/readme]

and

[r]x[/r]

and their French versions.

RE: Submition Status

Hi, I've noticed one of your editors have accessed my site but im not on your directory

Please could you tell me if our site has been listed or does it take longer than just an editor viewing my site?

http://editors.dmoz.org/editors/editunrev2.cgi

Here is the pearl script that accesed my site at the begining of this month.

oneeye · Mar 6, 2005

There are a dozen reasons why your site might be accessed by an editor without it meaning the site has been reviewed. Watch the category, do the occasional search on the URL without the http://www. bit, and if you don't see it listed in 6 months and want to know if it has been rejected, come back and ask using this same thread.

pvgool · Mar 6, 2005

You can see for yourself if your site is listed. Just visit the category it was waiting in.
If it isn't anything could have happened. There are to many reason your site can be visited through that link to explain.

If the site isn't listed you are allowed to ask for a status 6 months after your previous request.

zarren · May 12, 2005

Hi can I ask now why I am not listed?

spectregunner · May 12, 2005

No you may not.

Please follow the forum rules that have been explained to you and that are in the FAQ.

bobrat · May 12, 2005

Automated reply system code 17

A clarification ---

Forum rules require a six month wait to ask for additional status information. It is suggested that you bookmark this thread for future use. One way is to use Thread Tools->Subscribe to this thread.

The six months is from the last answer you received, not the date you suggested your site.

This information is included in Read the guidelines before posting - which you should review at this time.

It has nothing to do with the time required to review your site. Site reviews may occur anywhere from tomorrow to never.

[Please note that we are very strict about six months]

Do not keep asking questions about your site - wait a full six months begore asking again

Spend the time reading all FAQS and guidelines

This forum is manned by volunteers - superfluous questions tie up resources

zarren · May 13, 2005

Hmmm Open directory project

I dont understand it. Seems like it takes for ever to get listed, and all the editors do is tell people to wait all day

it might work a bit faster if you droped the forum lol. but what do I know

pvgool · May 13, 2005

It might work a bit faster if people would follow our guidelines. Which you aren't doing.
Last warning: you must wait a minimum of 6 months between status requests, lst answer was given on January 21, 2005. So don't come back before July 21.
