ability to exclude banned keywords

All the keywords that mcjiffy shows are pulled directly from ebay. So I would assume all the keywords ebay generates would not be against their TOS.

I have a collecting site, the search for Dinky (model cars) brings up sex toys as well as Dinky model cars, I need to have a General rated site, no adult content, hence the need to exclude certain key words such as "sex". ( The Ebay publisher agreement has rules about adult keywords, but Im not a expert in the finer points of what is allowed, so I feel safer avoiding those categories.) For the same reason I want to exclude firearms related content and reviews.
(currently the keyword 'obama' brings up a review in first place from that category)

I prefer not to limit the site to one category because the items I'm targeting span several categories, Im hoping somebody out there can help, I not a programmer, but I can edit and paste code snippets if any body has any to share, I need a way to exclude certain words from being returned in the search results and in the related search list

An alternative solution that would help would be the ability to define multiple target categories ( i.e desired categories, and ideally, categories for exclusion )in the default.php

Thanks in advance

Hi

I would like an answer to this one, if anybody can help.

I'm getting hassle from some 'brand protection' people who want me to remove their trademarked brand name from my site. I have used a rudimentary 301 redirect in my .htaccess to remove the page in question:

redirect 301 /buy/protected+brandname http://www.mysite.com/404.html

but this just removes that page, I would like a way to exclude the keyword(s) so I don't have to do this for loads of potential search variations.

Thanks

Should be easy enough to drop a bit of code into about line #110 and #112 to check for a negative word and drop it. You would still need to create a list of negative keywords for each site. Let me know and I'll give you a price for it.

Alternatively replace "FindPopularSearches" with "FindPopularItems" on line 357 that should only display items only sold on eBay...rather that what folks are searching for.

Hi Chuck thanks for the offer, but I have fixed the problem for now with the following in my .htaccess:

RedirectMatch 301 /buy/KEYWORD(.*)$ http://www.mysite.com/404.html

probably not the best code but it works. I do however need some advice here if you have a mo
