Daniel,

Sorry for getting your name wrong...

Some firewalls and security settings and software may conflict with Tuelz, as Tuelz.exe is really a "web server".

Daniel said:
<<Finally, as per your instructions I will ask for a refund BUT I <<REALLY WOULD LIKE TO BUY THIS SOFTWARE WHEN I'M SURE I CAN USE IT, <<will that be a problem for you?

Just test tuelz.exe first and not claim I haven't given you support after I've answered everyone of your questions promptly...

<<PS: Should I send my receipt to your AOL email?>>

Yes.

I have purchased ZZ Tuel and have used Newz Tuel to find RSS pheeds.

I have also purchased the Webmaster Tuel Kitz #1 & #2.

I wish to utilize the Webmaster Tuelz and have the following question.

What do I need to do to have access to the Webmaster Tuelz?

I have tried placing them into the tuelz-1.0 folder, as I did the zz.mod file, but that does not work for me.

What else should I be doing to get this to work?

Thank you for your help. It is greatly appreciated.

Jason

Jason,

First, this is the ZZ Tuel thread and as you said you have ZZ working, so not sure why you post questions about other Tuelz on the ZZ Tuel thread.

However, the directions are the same for all tuelz.

You say in your post you did #2 of the three steps, so I'm guessing you've left out one of the two other steps:

1. Exit tuelz.exe

2. Download ZZ to your tuelz directory

3. Then restart

My guess is you didn't exit tuelz.exe, as instucted, before placing the other tuelz in the Tuelz folder.

Please don't post any more topics not related to ZZ on this thread, as this is the ZZ Tuel Official thread and not a general discussion of tuelz.

Thanks...

Does ZZ work on all browsers? I'm having a problem and think it may be due to using Opera.

I'm working through the learning curve here and created a few feeds with Newz Tuel. So far so good.
I set up a test page, nothing fancy with a single tag {cat=1&items=5} and put it into the templates directory.
Started up ZZTeulz, created a new project, found the destination and template directories and even 1/2 way understand the formatting box but don't touch it.

At the top of the page though is the following:
Error!
Invalid field format at Username : Field is empty
All I want to do is generate a page and learn how to work with the tags and placement on the page. As nothing is checked in the FTP area, I don't think I should get the error as I don't want to use the FTP features,

I leave the FTP alone but there's no GENERATE NOW button! Browse and Add FTP now button, yes and the scheduler is there but no generate button? What am I doing wrong?

Claude,

The sales page lists the requirements, here they are again:

Download The Newz Tuel for FREE
Windows 98, 2000, NT, XP
Internet Explorer 6 or Better
Internet Connection, Full-Time connection such as DSL or cable recommended, although can function without full-time connection.

Note that IE is a requirement.

Also, the "Generate Now" button is not on the same "page" as the FTP info. You must complete the details for the project first, then click any of the "modify Project" buttons.

For using the Test mode, please refer to the Read Me, which gives instructions on using the Test mode.

Kurt,

Will changing a motherboard cause ZZ to no longer verify?

I had to change out a "zapped" motherboard this weekend and now have it up and running. However, I now find that ZZ is not verifying.

Que Pasa, Compadre?

John

>Kurt,
>
>Will changing a motherboard cause ZZ to no longer verify?

John,

No...

My guess is you didn't back up the correct version of ZZ.

Claude,

First, a lesson about the Net..."Or better" is standard for saying 6.0, 6.01. 6.02, 6.3., 7.0 and my use of "or better" is common and proper usage.

What this means is IE 5.0 isn't enough, it must be 6.0 OR BETTER. I didn't invent the term, I just use it.

Now that we have cleared that up so you will know what "or better" means when you see others using the expression, let's move on to your next problem.

Regardless of whether or not you are uploading at this time you need to complete the FTP info. Which is why you are getting the error meassage: Invalid field format at Username : Field is empty

Once you have filled in all the info, as the Read Me and my previous post say, you then click the "Modify Project" button and you will be taken to the nest screen.

If you still receive an error, it is because you haven't completed all the info. Put something in all the boxes like the ReadMe says, then let's see if your "generate now" button appears.

>My guess is you didn't back up the correct version of ZZ.

Subtly masked and profoundly correct. DUH!

ZZTuel: A Review

I’ve had ZZTuelz about a month. I tested it when I first got it, found that it worked, although I didn’t know what to do with it and basically let it slide on account of the steep learning curve, or so I thought.

ZZTuel is Easy. All that sophisticated SE optimization that Kurt does is cool and very interesting. I have printed it and saved it on my hard drive. But it is also unnecessary, at least in the beginning.

All you really need to do is make an html page, paste your ZZtuel keyword tags where you want them, save and you are done, well almost.

It is even easier if you have a bunch of pages you have already created. Then all you have to do is paste your zztags where ever you want them in those pages. Save those pages and you are done.

Well there is a little bit more to it. Before you can paste your tags you do need to add your feeds to the newz tool. But I think all of us bombers know how to do that.

And if you are brand new, that’s where you need to begin. But even that is easier than it looks. The Newz tool will actually find you keyword feeds. All you have to do is put in the keyword, click add, and the Newz tool will find and add your feeds. It could hardly be easier.

Once you have your feeds, the next step is to make your tags, pretty easy, follow the formula in the ZZTuel read me, and paste them where you want them on your page.

There are a couple of other important steps. You do need a project folder, and inside that you need a folder named template and a folder named destination.

The template folder is where you put or save pages in which you put your zztags.

You can do it more sophisticatedly than this, but this is the easy version.

Now that I understand this, the optimization that Kurt does makes a lot more sense.

The main point is: zzTuel is easy. If you can make an html page and paste some tags you can use zztuel.

One other thing. ZZTuel is Fun.

Hi,

After creating a project, and running the test, I checked my website for the files but there aren't any there.

Firstly, the ftp info is correct because when I went to "modify" and browse, I can actually view the contents of the website files and folders.

Also, on my Destination Folder, the generated files are there.

I'm not sure where I went wrong. Can you please assist? If you need additional info, please let me know.

Thanks.

Melvin,

This thread is for those without access to the other parts of the forum. Please use the Official Thread for ZZ for your answer. Thanks.

Hi Kurt,

First, thanks for creating such great software! I'm still getting the hang of it, but very cool stuff...

I'm curious, is there a way I could make Tuelz run through IE instead of the default browser for Windows (in my case, set to Firefox)?

The reason I ask is that I use a proxy for Firefox, and Tuelz doesn't open unless I go in and turn off the proxy. The proxy is for my satellite modem and increases my browsing speed, however the internet still works without it, so I'd love to be able to set Tuelz to always run in IE.

Any suggestions?

Thanks again!

Fred

>I'm curious, is there a way I could make Tuelz run through

Fred,

Tuelz doesn't need your default browser to run, only to be "viewed", so to speak.

While Tuelz now doesn't have an option to specify a browser, you can copy this URL:
http://127.0.0.1:12345/

And make it your default "start up page" for IE, or just create a bookmark.

Start Tuelz.exe.
It will then start your default browser
Start IE.

Now you can use IE and if http://127.0.0.1:12345/ is set as your homepage, each time IE is started, it will find the "Tuel Box".

How this works with your firewall or security, I have no idea and won't even comment...

I received the error below, after clicking on ZZ Tuelz.
After closing and restarting, it was ok.

I need two files: tuelz.log and tuelz.dat.
Please do the following next time when you see this error:
1. Exit Tuelz immediately. You need to right-click the icon on the system tray and click "Quit" or click the "Quit" link in the Tuelz page.
Just closing the browser window is not enough.
2. There will be two files in the Tuelz directory: tuelz.dat and tuelz.log. Please attach them and send them to me:
support@gammacenter.com

Kurt,
Again, thanks for putting out such fantastic programs.
Finally getting a hang of zz after a couple of days
getting acquainted with all the SEO bombs, tazbombs,
blogbomb... lots of cool stuff. I had been using
Dir Generator for awhile with a good amount of success
but one of my main sites was taken out of Yahoo and then
I realized those styles of sites had their days numbered
but with your tools and techniques, i believe i'll be able
to keep my sites where they should be, with half a million
page views/month!!!.
Only problem i'm having with zz that i have not been able
to solve by myself is:
I can't get it to run the schedules and upload to the
folder i want to (or any folder for that matter)
When i click on upload project folder it does something
but nothing happens.
I scheduled it so it would generate pages and upload
at a certain time, nothing...
Any ideas of why this might be happening?
I'm able to login and browse and i have created
the remote folder prior to making the attempt...
THanks forany reply.
Mars

another quick question:
considering i do get zz to upload automatically (directory project),
will it update all my 4000+ pages with the update feeds? (is this clear?)
mars

Mars,

Did you check "Auto Upload" box in the Admin?

Auto Upload - Check to FTP pages automatically after each session.

>another quick question:
>considering i do get zz to upload automatically (directory
>project),
>will it update all my 4000+ pages with the update feeds? (is
>this clear?)

Mars,

It will update the pages that contain ZZ tags. Which pages are uploaded is defined in the Admin.

However, I don't recommend creating projects with 4000 pages as it isn't natural for 4000 pages to update all at once, not to mention you will be limited by how fast you can upload 4000 pages.

Instead, create a few seperate projects. Every page doesn't have to update every day.

HI Kurt,
Is it possible for me to get an extra license on my laptop?
My wife is into it and it would be great if we could both
be working on this.
Let me know what that entails.
Thanks.
Oh, another quick question:
on another post you suggested i don't use the news update feature
of zz on all my 4k pages. Point taken. Problem is, i've already done
it and now when i look at my code on teh pages which i re-genereated with zz, it doesn't show the code but only teh news themselves.
How do i undo that. just upload my back up?

Mars,

If it's an archive project, and you did everything correctly, you should still have a folder of pages with the tags still in place in ZZ:
Templates Folder: (Where are all your template pages on your PC?)

It was a directory project.

I also had the same problem.

Downloaded the free software and all went well and everything worked.

Purchased the software and put the file I received by email (zz.mod) in the same folder as my free programs.

The ZZ Tuels link never appeared on the main local "homepage" however, did not work.

I deleted the original folder with all files in it (I had to reboot to do this as some files were busy an could not be deleted).

Created a new folder (under porgrams BTW) and unzipped the free files into this folder. Clicked on tuelz.exe to make sure it worked and it did. I then closed the browser and put the new file (zz.mod) in the same folder.

BEFORE I tried again I took a look at taskmanager and sure enough the file tuelz.exe was still running, probably what caused the problems before.

I clicked on the "tuelz.exe" file name in taskmanager and then pressed the "End Process" button....

Now I clicked the the file "tuelz.exe" and I see the new item and all looks well

Hope this may help another new user.

Kurt, your software is awesome and easy to use. I have just 2 questions...

1. Can I set up the template so the URL for my RSS feeds opens a NEW browser window? If so, what would the code look like for the template?

2. I've searched and read through this forum, and don't find any mention of RSS feeds that pay me per click. What feeds exactly pay me to post them on my site?

Thanks!

In the RSS template, find:
<a href="{url}">

Change it to:
<a href="{url}" TARGET="new">

Or (I think):
<a href="{url}" TARGET="top">

For finding RSS pheeds, we use this Official Thread in the private forum:
http://www.dombom.com/cgi-bin/dcforum/dcboard.cgi?az=show_thread&om=217&forum=DCForumID9

>In the RSS template, find:
><a href="{url}">
>
>Change it to:
><a href="{url}" TARGET="new">
>
>Or (I think):
><a href="{url}" TARGET="top">

Another way to do it is to use <a ref="URL" TARGET="window1">

When we "allow" visitors to open new windows, there's always the danger they will open many and clog up their RAM, slowing their computer. Of course when they do that they will blame the site. That's why I use the code I listed. No matter how many links are clicked on, there will only be one window open with the newly clicked on content replacing the last one.

Thanks,
Rob

I've been experimenting with ZZ on my notebook and now I'm ready to move the program to the machine where I want it to run full time. Is there a quick and easy way to backup all of the pheeds I've gathered and restore them to the new location?

Will copying the installation and directories take care of this?

Thanks,

Del

Del,

Just copy the entire Tuel directory and everything should be fine, but be aware that ZZ's license is for one PC.

Thanks, Kurt. It will only run on one computer at any given time.

Hello,

I have a couple of questions about the archiving project I am working on.

1. How do I make the archive pages display a date, the way you do at lizardz.com, instead of just the same link repeating over and over?

2. How do I link the main news page to the latest updating archive page, the way you do at lizards.com? Each day the news should be from that day, then it archives and the new news comes up. Do you understand my question? I would really appreciate some help.

Thanks!

>1. How do I make the archive pages display a date, the way
>you do at lizardz.com, instead of just the same link
>repeating over and over?

Lizardz was built with GodfatherBomb. AT this time, ZZ doesn't have a time stamp option for links, but will probably be added in any future updates.

The pages are on your hard drive and can be easily modified at any time. It's suggested that you modify your links and other elements of your pages routinely. It takes about 10 seconds to change the anchor text from time to time, or run other tuelz for more variation.

Again, Lizardz uses GBomb/BlogBomb which are dynamic and not ZZ. However you can duplicate this to some extent by creating a second, DIRECTORY project and run it on the "main page" to update this page's content.

Kurt,

Don't know if this was asked before.
Is there a way I can put Tuelz on the
start up so whenever I re boot it comes
up automatically?

We are having a series of Thunder storms
locally forcing me to shut down my system
each time so my computer doesn't get
zapped...I don't trust the surge suppersors
although I do use them.

Tom

Just a stupid question, I'm looking to buy zz soon. With zz, can I build one really big spiderbomb database ans use the same info for all my sites, or do I have to build unique databases for each one?

Thanks,

Steve

Steve,

First you would need to convert the SpiderBomb file to RSS, since SpiderBomb does not output as RSS.,

With that said, I have no idea of how big this file is and I'm sure ZZ has some limit to how much data each file can be and this is most likely determined by your system.

In theory, the answer to your question would be "yes", but in reality I'd say probably not and that there's likely to be better methods to use.

I luv ZZ Tuel!

But I have a challenge!

I created my master template so that it grab content like this
{{cat=2&items=6&keywords=my+apple+pie}}

When I am in ZZ Tuelz in the "Formatting Template for RSS Content" I have

---
<a href="{url}">{title=9999}</a><br>
{description=300}<br>
---

But when the page is created there not 300 characters in the description.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

Ed

><a href="{url}">{title=9999}</a><br>
>{description=300}<br>
>---

>But when the page is created there not 300 characters in the
>description.
>

Ed,

I'm guessing the item doesn't have 300+ characters. ZZ is limited to what is contained in the pheed.

I have 50 or so articles that I want to turn into rss pheeds for use in zz. Should I put all of the articles togeteher as 1 feed and call them up using a tag like {{rss=6&random=6}} or should I make each article an individual feed and call it with {{cat=2&item=6}} type tag?

What can I use to turn these article into feed? The best case scenario would be that I could get the content from the feed directly on the page rather than just the decription, but I'm having some diffuculty doing that.

Steve

Kurt,

I am creating an archive project to be used as part of a site that is already created.

I see the linking methods for how to interlink the archive pages to each other in ZZ and I realize that you can link to your existing site pages by adding them in the ZZ Tuelz template.

What I don't follow is how to link to your created directory pages from other pages that are already created in your site.

Please tell me what I'm missing.

Thanks,

Del

Del,

Please use the Official Thread for ZZ in the private forum.

This forum is for those without access to the private forum <hint hint>

To answer your question, ZZ is not intended to inter-link with existing pages. If you intend to link from those pages, you will either need to link "by hand", or write new links to an text/html file and include the text file via SSI on older pages.

I have Tuelz installed and the zzmod, it has worked untill this morning, but now all that shows up in the control panel is the free version.

Mark

Mark,

I'm not sure what you mean as ZZ doesn't have a free version.

It is possible that somehow your connection had a problem so it couldn't reach our servers to "verify" ownership...Often this will correct itself, if not email me with your receipt and we'll take a closer look.

I grabbed a ebay feed.
http://caabwp.com/chicago-news/total-gym-chuck-norris.htm
And used it in zztuelz.
Testing for a popular product.

in my zz news tuelz interface , the data and the images appear fine.

However, in the output for built page in zz tuelz only the title and a image place holder are shown.

kelvin

Kelvin,

Sometimes pheeds don't show properly in ZZ due to the RSS pheed not being formatted correctly. ZZ is very picky when it comes to RSS syntax.

About the only thing I can suggest is to try another pheed...Sorry about that...

No problem, Kurt.

kelvin

FYI:

Glad that you gave us alternatives.

I put the same feed in blogbomb, and it worked.

http://www.blacknewschannel.com/total-gym.htm

kelvin

Kurt,

Hw do I access this feed in ZZ or the Newz Tuel?

"Then, I'll give details concerning Commentz using the RSS pheed embedded in ZZ. This will ensure only those with ZZ have access to this Commentz Special."

I'm very interested in Commentz.

Thanks

Ernie

Ernie...

ZZ Tuel has an "admin" rss built into it on the mamin page (first page) of ZZ...Right now the pheeds says:

---

ZZ Tuel

Official RSS Pheed

Welcome to ZZ Tuel
This is the Official RSS pheed for ZZ Tuelz.

Here's number 2
And here is where I can ramble on about this and that and the other thing, if you know what I mean. And, I am sure you do if you catch me drift.

---

I'll post the details for Commentz in the ZZ admin thread, so only those with registered versions of ZZ will have access to getting Commentz.

zz is running updating ftp'ing whenever the tuelz is running, that is- the tuelz-icon shows in the system-tray, correct?

>zz is running updating ftp'ing whenever the tuelz is
>running, that is- the tuelz-icon shows in the system-tray,
>correct?

Assuming you are connected to the Net, that is correct.

To "stop" tuelz.exe, you must click the "Exit" link, not just close the browswer window.

I've been experimenting with ZZ and a YouTube rss feed and am getting an issue that has me baffled.

Here's an item from the feed.

<img src="http://sjl-static3.sjl.youtube.com/vi/vv3ez9V-YuU/2.jpg"; align="right" border="0" width="120" height="90" vspace="4" hspace="4" />

Now when I view the created page (I use Dreamweaver)from my local drive the image comes through perfect. However, when I upload it to my site the image disappears.

I'm assuming this is the problem <<sjl-static3.sjl.>> in the image source.

I have the title set to 100 and description to 3000.

Anyone else having this issue or have a workaround to get the video frame to show up?

Thanks

Ernie

Ernie,

I've never used YouTube so I don't really have a clue.

However, I have a feeling this may have something to do with Dreamweaver. Double check to make sure the html on both your hard drive and your server are INDENTICAL.

Kurt,

Thanks for the quick response.

The HTML is identical, so it must be something with the static video frame jpeg in the feed.

I tried it with two other RSS app's (one was CaRP) and the same thing happens - no video frame graphic.

I'll keep playing with it and if I can get it to display I'll post the "solution" for everyone.

Ernie

Hi Kurt,

Merry Christmas!

I just reinstalled my system. and now Tuelz is erroring out!

I did a search and don't think I found a solution. I may have missed it.

I have Windows XP PRO with all the updates.

Here is the error log.

----------------------------------------

Ed,

This isn't really a ZZ question...However, I believe this is a new problem popping up that is the same as discussed in this thread:
http://www.dombom.com/dcforum/DCForumID27/49.html

Are you using a short-cut to access tuelz? Please respond on this thread:
http://www.dombom.com/dcforum/DCForumID27/49.html

Hi Kurt,

There may not be anything you can do about this.

I wanted to take the RSS from youtube, which has a lot of content. Here is the RSS feed from youtube.

http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/base/videos?q=easy%20push%20button%20traffic&client=ytapi-youtube-search&v=2

Once thing I found is that to even get it to show in the newz tuelz, you have to add ( &alt=rss ) . At this point it shows fine in newz tuelz.

So, I then setup the output via zz, you can see it here. http://kelvinbrown.com/zztemplate/

The problem seems to be in formatting. Not only did it loose the formatting, it only printed the video and the title, non of the description.

FYI: google video does fine, except there RSS seems not to include the description, at all.

Hi Kelvin,

Good to see you back.

And you're right, I probably can't help much, but have you tried messing with the:
Formatting Template for RSS Content

...Which is in the ZZ admin?

The default is:
<a href="{url}">{title=50}</a><br>
{description=150}<br>

Maybe add a <p> to the beginning and </p> to the end?

Something like:
<p><a href="{url}">{title=50}</a><br>
{description=150}<br> </p>

After I asked the question, I saw where it was posted that some of the RSS feeds had been changing.

I tried changing the template, with no success.
I see a lot of the little scripts that make video pages, but to me since the RSS contains the desc, that, that would give a big edge , as more content on themed page.s

Kelvin

PS Glad to be back

Hi Kurt,

I can do a single output just fine, But if i try to print 2 or more items, then it messes up.

I figured out somewhat, the problem.

The output is using sever div tags, so when u do more than one item it shifts. I had a little success adding tables, but I am not a programmer, so could not get it just right.

So, on to the next step.

Hey Kelvin,

If tables work, let's try this:

Add the folloowing code to the template pages:
<table width=>

</table>

Have ZZ insert the RSS AFTER:
<table width=> (This gives us a "unique" table tag, incase you use other tables on the page.)

In the "Formatting Template for RSS Content" in ZZ add this to the begining of the formatting:

<tr align="top"><td>

Add the following to the end of the formatting:

</td></tr>

You should have something like this in the Formatting Template for RSS Content box:

<tr align="top"><td>
<a href="{url}">{title=50}</a><br>
{description=150}<br>
</td></tr>

Hi Kurt,

I tried several options using the info you gave me.
Some worked better, but I can't spend any more time on it.

Maybe later, I can pay someone to look at it, if i want to go further.

Hi Kurt,

I had to reinstall Tuelz on my computer..and am now having trouble getting my paid version to run. Using Windows XP.

FYI, I was able to stop Tuelz, then install the limited version which runs just fine. I've purchased however, just about every product you have thru WSO and such, but now can't get to any of my paid versions. Let me know if I need to send you any paypal receipts.

Here's my log file if that helps: Thanks Alot Kurt for the assistance. Sorry for the trouble.....

This is really a Tuelz problem, not a ZZ question, and this is the ZZ thread.

I believe the problem is you have projects that have "broken" with changing computers.

For example, file paths to ZZ prodect folders are likely not the same. This causes Tuelz to fail.

Try moving tuelz.dat into another folder, or delete it (but save it somewhere) and see if that fixes the problem. Unfortunately, I don't have a fix that will import old projects, and not sure there really is one.

Again, backup the tuelz.dat file and delete it from the tuelz folder and let me know if the Tuelz work after that.
