Spider Identification / Footer


There is an up-to-date list of spiders on the official vBulletin forum.

Download the spiders xml file and copy it to your includes/xml directory as spiders_vbulletin.xml . vBulletin will read the file and include it in its spider identification for the who is online facility.

You have to rename it to spiders_vbulletin.xml overwriting the old file. It will not read it as named.
