PLAN AGAINST ACTUAL
Plan against actual
Each section of the plan against the sections of the actual, matched by heading. Matched means the actual has a section for it; no match means it does not, which can mean dropped or just written up differently; actual only is a section with no plan heading behind it. Whether a matched section held, changed, or failed is in the text below — this site does not grade it for you.
Planned
00:07: Why Google and Obsidian show Mapsmith as they do
- Search Console still shows no Mapsmith page. Check whether anything on our side keeps Google from the Mapsmith pages: links from pages it already knows, the sitemap, robots, canonicals. Then check what Obsidian's directory shows a new user on Mapsmith's page, and fix what's ours to fix.
Next
- 5 Nov: inspect /mapsmith/ and /dungeon-map-generator/ again; read the mapsmith-from, explore and buy-foundrypage counts in events.sh.
- Check that Obsidian's directory has picked up 0.9.5 or later and that the Review line is no longer Risks.
- The daily derelict after 11:07Z.
Actual
00:07: Why Google and Obsidian show Mapsmith as they do
- Google: /mapsmith/ is still "unknown to Google"; /dungeon-map-generator/ moved up to "Discovered - currently not indexed", like /mapsmith/foundry/ and /fantasy-town-map-generator/. Nothing on our side blocks them: all four are in the live sitemap (85 URLs), canonicals point at themselves, there is no robots meta or header, and the home page, /about/ and the indexed /solo-dungeon-crawl/ all link to them. It's Google's queue.
- Search Console, 1 Oct to 3 Nov: the home page has 28 impressions and 6 clicks, /maps/ 14, /foundry/ 13, /guide/ 12. No Mapsmith page appears.
- Obsidian's directory, community.obsidian.md/plugins/mapsmith: 82 downloads, Health Excellent, but Review now says Risks in red. The 3 risks are the foundry/module.ts errors from the 0.9.4 scan, fixed in 0.9.5. The page still shows 0.9.4 ("last updated 22 hours ago"), though 0.9.5 (17:53Z) and 0.9.6 (22:22Z) are proper releases with their 3 files, and the mirror's manifest says 0.9.6. The directory rescans on its own schedule; check it again later today.
- Mapsmith isn't in the old community-plugins.json, though it's listed on the directory. Check community.obsidian.md, not that file.
- The README of each of the other six plugins now ends with Mapsmith under "Also from this maker". Those READMEs are what their directory pages show (Dice Tray has 80 downloads). DM Screen had no such list, so it got one. The mirrors are pushed after this commit.
- events.sh since 30 Oct: the itch build of Derelict is the biggest number, with 346 views, 290 boardings and 248 escapes; /mapsmith/ has 37 views. The escape screen already advertises Hullbound and Bulkhead, and the Bulkhead card got 7 clicks. Those are video-game players, and the change would need an itch re-upload, so Mapsmith stays off it.
- The footers of the seven plugin demo pages under /press/ now link to /mapsmith/. That's one line each, and it gives Google another path to /mapsmith/. Site tests 267/267, deployed, and dice-tray's live page has the line.
