This sounds like very sesinble advice and I achieved it by putting a check in /templates/catalog/layer/filter.phtml.This is the function I’m using to check and it seems to work just fine, having looked at a few pages as Googlebot.function IsGooglebot(){// check if user agent contains googlebtif(eregi(“Googlebot”,$_SERVER[‘HTTP_USER_AGENT’])){$ip = $_SERVER[‘REMOTE_ADDR’];//server name e.g. crawl-66-249-66-1.googlebot.com$name = gethostbyaddr($ip);//check if name ciontains googlebotif(eregi(“Googlebot”,$name)){//list of IP’s$hosts = gethostbynamel($name);foreach($hosts as $host){if ($host == $ip){return true;}}return false; // Pretender, take some action if needed}else{return false; // Pretender, take some action if needed}}else{// Not googlebot, take some action if needed}return false;}
