Detect User If It Is A Bot - wolfgang1983 - 07-08-2017
When user signs up is there away to detect if user is a robot?
Just in case it slips through. Currently I use a robots.txt file
On my robots.txt
Code:
User-agent: *
Disallow /And On my head area in view
Code:
<meta name="robots" content="noindex">RE: Detect User If It Is A Bot - waptik - 07-08-2017
