Hello
Is there any possibility to exclude robots like GoogleBot and others, without knowing the IP address?
Kind regards, Thomas

Hello Thomas,

the most reliable way to detect bots is still the IP address, so no other way to exclude is avalable for the component.

If your site is visitied often by bots, you can specify multiple ranges of IP addresses, you find an easy list to get IP addresses of known bots here: http://chceme.info/ips/

Kindest regards

John
