Anyone useing google Adsense new "Site Authentication" with vB?

[htrshgytrs]

my forum is 100% members only (ie guests see nothing), so this will be quite useful for me.

Thanks Dismounted, i'll look into hashing the password that way and will report back.

ok, i plain md5 hashed the password via this tool.

I then added 2 parameters to google adsense and tried index.php and login.php as the destination page. The 2 params used were vb_login_username and vb_login_md5password.

No luck though, and no errors or anything to help me.. Only the restricted guest only content is displayed. Is still a pretty new feature, so i may have to wait until someone else figures it out

Try setting "login.php?do=login" as the destination.

thanks tried that one previously also, but not using the new hashed password. No luck though, still doesn't login.

Has anyone actually gotten this to work?

Nope This would be good tho

someone answered my question over at vb.com

Auth URL: http://www.mysite.com/forums/login.php?do=login
Auth method: POST
Parameters:
vb_login_username = <username>
do = login
vb_login_md5password = <md5hash>
vb_login_md5password_utf = <md5hash>

works perfectly!

"Test My Authentication URL" works fine, but there is no login or action on the private forum from the adsense robot. Otherwise, crawl-66-249-71-251.googlebot.com is a regular on all my other forums!
