Prevent PHP execution if USER_AGENT is bot
Raw
bots.php
<?php
// While not foolproof, you can check the USER_AGENT string and only run that code if 'bot' does not exist.
if(stripos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'],'bot') === false){ }
// This would stop any bot that actually has bot in the user agent string that also does not pay attention to robots.txt.
