I need to make changes to someone's robot.txt file, but their site is managed by Google, (so no FTPing).
I have full access to the site via the browser (Site Actions / Manage Site, etc) but how do I get to the robots.txt file to update it?

Basically the title, I want to have a pretty simple exe file uploaded to my github pages website, and then allow it to be used on the site. Is this possible and if so how can i do it?
GitHub Pages provides only static sites. That is, a GitHub Pages site can contain only HTML, CSS, JavaScript and the like that are delivered without changes to the web browser. Like with all static site hosts, there is no backend server to perform operations on behalf of the user, including running executables of any sort, so that isn't possible here.
This is the case because GitHub does not want to run arbitrary code on behalf of users when rendering pages (which is a sensible approach in terms of security). Even if GitHub did support that, GitHub uses Linux, so exe files would be right out.
I am researching this. I need suggestions.
I have a domain that I own. It is pointed to a subdomain that is my business that I do not own. The subdomain's robots.txt file controls the images I am trying to list in the Microsoft Shopping. But Microsoft Shopping wants to crawl the image URLs. The robots.txt will not allow this.
I need to use resources to have my domain carry its own robots.txt file while integrated with the subdomain. I need to avoid redirects for Microsoft.
TIA
I have a website written by js-css-html and some php. I have uploaded all the files to the github and it is activively working. As you know, it is a web-page which you can access it via a link.
What I'm trying to do is to see who click to my website. In my search I find that log files do this what I want. How can add log file to keep tracking who is click my web-page?
A GitHub page does have analytics:
either natively through Traffic page,
or through third-party tools, like Google analytics (with this script or a pixel tracked)
I am trying to associate a new domain with my chrome app. I've tried uploading the new manifest file, but the Web Store dashboard says:
This hosted web app specifies one or more URLs that are not matched by sites you own. If this app will be published for anyone to access, you must verify ownership of or association to sites to match all of the URLs listed below.
Unmatched app urls:
https://www.mydomain.com/
To verify your ownership of these websites, add the necessary websites using Google Webmaster Tools and return here to complete this step.
If the site already has an owner, you may request they grant you an association which allows you to publish apps and extensions to the Chrome Web Store on behalf of the site. You may request an association in the verified website section below.
In Google Webmaster Tools, I see the following message:
https://www.mydomain.com/: Chrome Web Store associate request received
March 21, 2014
You requested permissions to publish apps and extensions to the Chrome
Web Store on behalf of https://www.mydomain.com/. You will receive a
message telling you when your request has been approved.
In the verified website section, I see:
https://www.mydomain.com/: The association request placed 3/21/14 11:51 AM is pending action by the site's owner. If you know who the owner is, you should contact them and ask them to approve it for you. If you don't, there is nothing else you can do to make this happen more quickly.
What do I need to do in order to get this association approved? The Web Store makes it sound like I need to do something in Google Webmaster Tools, but Google Webmaster Tools makes it sound like there's nothing to be done.
I was able to resolve this issue by specifying https://mydomain.com rather than https://www.mydomain.com.
I am trying to use the Facebook javascript sdk for my chrome extension. Since it is a chrome extension how do i integrate it with facebook? is it an app on facebook.com or a website?
Currently i have it as a website.
my site url on the settings is:
http://localhost/Users/home/Documents/facebook/
i have also enabled web sharing on my mac.
do i need to set the site domain as well? what am i doing wrong here?
Enter http://localhost/Users/home/Documents/facebook/ as your "Site Domain" on the developer app:
https://developers.facebook.com/apps/{api_key}/summary
Replace {api_key} with yours; or find a link at https://developers.facebook.com
Interestingly enough, Facebook lets you type anything into the domain so it can be an offline URL (such as localhost or a local port) and Facebook will redirect to it after authentication.
You can test Facebook applications locally if you add an entry to your hosts file which points to any subdomain of the root domain you gave Facebook. For example, if your domain is example.com, you can add entry to your hosts file pointing fbtest.example.com to localhost (127.0.0.1).
You can then test away locally without having to edit your Facebook app configuration (assuming your local server is set to serve the same content to all subdomains).
Alternatively, if it's important to have the exact domain, you can just add an entry for the root domain. It just means you won't be able to access the live site while testing.
In order to develop and publish a Facebook application, you must provide a web accessible URL that Facebook can query. If you have webspace you can upload to or make your IP available to the web for Facebook to call, it should solve your problems.
Facebook will allow you to put just about any valid url into the box, however when you go to use it for logins or general use, you will begin to notice errors, since Facebook's spider cannot fetch the url.
Check the 'Desktop Apps' section of https://developers.facebook.com/docs/authentication/
This explains how to do authentication where there's no server involved, it's aimed at desktop apps but a browser toolbar should work in a similar way
