I dont get any spiders visiting although I know they are there. Was trying to add the identifyers into the AdminCP WHos online but dont know what part of the file I have to add where.
Any help much appreciated.

I am a supporter of this idea :)

Installed it works great. One question, on My VB config I have the MSN and Google bots description as "MSNbot" and "Google" but in my forumhome I see:

Most users ever online was 356, 01-29-2005 at 07:33 PM.
Me , google , msnbot

How can I change those names?

Also, it would be sweet to have each bot to have a different color :)

I have it set to change the names to lowercase to make matching the names more accurate. You can always remove the call to strtolower in my code to keep it from changing to lower case.

I am not a php guy, could you tell me exactly how?

Sorry, thanks

also, works with .7 ?

Yes. I just installed it on 3.0.7 and it works fine.

Replace this in index.php
With this:
I haven't tested this, but it should do what you want.

Adding more spiders is a question better asked in a separate thread in the General Vbulletin Questions. If you do a search, you will find people have already compiled large lists of spiders that aren't already installed by default. I believe some directions for adding them are posted as well.

Hmm.. seems mine not working correctly. It always says "0 spiders" and never shows any online, yet when looking at vB statistics, it shows a lot of hits by spider/crawlers.
