    Hi,
    always wondering why we get absolutely no traffic from yahoo.com.
    in our congig php i see this line: $conf[‘ban_destination’] = “http://www.yahoo.com/”;
    sorry to appear stupid, but does that mean that traffic from yahoo gets blocked by our site?
    please help. whoever built our site must have copied the sample code from ee’s wiki.
    if i have to remove the yahoo bit, would this line look like this: $conf[‘ban_destination’] = “”;
    as i can’t find an answer on google i just ask right here.
    thanks a lot!!!

    No, that means that users of the “Banned” group will be sent to Yahoo instead of your site.
