I was just wondering if there was a way to show bots on your forum whos online list?

Like in phpBB I have seen like [Google Bot] [Yahoo Bot] etc showing online everynow and again..

I was just wonder if you could do the same thing rather than Guest showing all the time.

If there is one that shows like I can make a group called Bots and then it shows Yahoo, Google etc in that colour that would be great if someone could direct me to a link.

If I understand you correctly... all you need to do is this:

AdminCP - vBulletin Options - Who's Online Options - Enable Spider Display

And be sure to ENABLE "Who's Online Display Guests" above it. ;)
