Ok i did. Hopefully someone answers. So i would have to have my whole site open to guest in order for google to index it? So all pages need to be open to guest with the exception of that one page for the signin page.

Yes, your website should be open. 

Works perfect right now. Only if i can get someone to get me a smooth redirect to the signin page from my url that would be awesome. Thats all im missing. I want all blog content to be listed in google when people search key works. One last time this will work if i do it this way right?

simple any page that you need to login to see google cant index
so any page ie blogs  in admin pages edit blogs page to be view able by guests
so when you are not logged in you will see the blogs link in menu  if you can see it not logged in google can see it and will index it
 

Well i want the index page to be my sigin in page. You can do a redirect on the page to send it there but it flashes the tab screen then goes to the signup screen. I want it as a smooth transition. Right now it looks cheap. I dont like that. I have all the features perfect but i cant figure out how to make my signup page my index page without doing a meta redirect. I need help. I dont know if i need to do some custom coding or what.

Nevermind. I figured it out myself.

Nevermind. I figured it out myself.

Can you please share a solution, for other community members. 

Ok now it works but facebook connect doesnt work. Stays on sign in page. Try nivasocial.com

One request per topic, please

Ross its related to the same issue. You guys need to get it together. You guys spend more time organizing topics than solving. Since ive used oxwall i have really found no real help. I always end up spending hours trying to solve the problems myself which is starting to get to me. If you guys are on the developement team then you need to help those who are having issues with your software instead of saying what you guys wont do.

My issue: http://www.nivasocial.com

Facebook connect stays on the signin page and wont go to the network. I made http://www.nivasocial.com/sign-in the index main page by redirecting and now this issue is happening. I need help. Please provide me the answers im looking for.

How is the title of this post related to your FB problem? 

Create another post, please

Its related because i started off with the blog issue tryin to get the blog to be index while the sign in page stays as the index. Now because i made the changes the facebook connect button doesnt log into the network. It says it logged in but it doesnt go past the sign in page.  So therefore its part of the same issue.

So ross! You arent going to help me correct?

What changes did you do, for the sign-in page to be as your landing page?

htaccess redirect

can you please provide the instructions or screenshot of your .htaccess?
